helix has a plugin system in the works, but unsure when it’ll actually land. lots of folks are already daily driving it, myself included.

fwiw it’s incredibly easy to build from master

last time i looked at it i couldn’t figure out what the difference was or why anyone would choose this over helix.

you wonder if the problem is hobbyists? i doubt it. go look at hobby projects on gh. now compare that to the ci pipelines you’ve built and used professionally.

without question, i expect the “professional” pipelines to be larger and less efficient.

observationally, engineers are producing far more prs and more ci runs than ever before. i would think this is where the significant impact is coming from.

this almost feels like a monkey paw scenario, where poor laws can fundamentally alter things in a way that is surely not intended.

"make the board 1x1"

and the flag is placed off the board... i feel like i would blow my foot off with this.

I tried insisting that the bug and the walls were on different planes of existence... But then the flag gained "phase lock" and blocked me.

i understand that, but i also didn’t feel facism taking hold before trump. probably a bad lumping of things, but my experience with id.me has been largely positive.

doesn’t id.me predate trump? i could totally be wrong about that, but it’s not new.

i can’t read the article to see what the specifics are, but assuming it’s essentially the square-cube law it doesn’t mean giant creatures can’t exist, it’s that small creatures can’t scale to be giants while being unchanged.

again i’m guessing, but if the conclusion is something like “if giant humans existed, X, Y and Z wouldn’t work”. then a “giant humans” would have to be something decidedly non-human.

the people writing it are doing it for themselves probably. i wouldn’t expect it to survive a code review. the necessity of using esoteric bash features or syntax is a pretty good smell that you should be using something else imo.

different strokes of course.
