paint.net is amazing for basic png editing, I've dreamed of this day. It'a the only thing I miss from Windows. I don't understand the slashback at all.

defer isn't bullet proof either. I think there's a linter about it and os.Exit. One can just wrap os.Exit in a helper to get the expected behaviour.

I remember looking into the nodejs alternatives some years ago, one way to compare them is to look at the open issues. bun had so many hits for 'segfault' and deno has basically none. Even now: bun (zig) [1] 119 open / 885 cl

Really happy to see 0.16 come out. I did a really tiny contribution about zig cc supporting -exported_symbols_list, which together with the hack of filtering out -liconv makes for a very viable linux -> macOS Rust cross-compiler. There&#

What pains are you experiencing? Cdk has far exceeded Ansible and Terraform in my experience.

Github being less and less reliable nowadays just makes this more true. In the past week I have seen: - actions/checkout inexplicably failing, sometimes succeeding on 3rd retry (of the built-in retry logic) - release ci jobs scheduling

I think cdk is the one to use nowadays. Infrastructure as real code.

I've Fairphone 6 with e/OS. Works well. Ok, some caveats: - mobilepay does not work (I think Danes have an issue with non-mainstream platforms for whatever reason) - the default browser does not work for some of the authentication

for office files one can also unzip and zip to store them in git as plaintext

Tangentially; I keep finding I flag things accidentally due to mainly browsing on mobile.

Secrets that you store in github actions secrets?

by anttiharju 8mo ago
What do you mean? Simple env prints get masked as *** in logs I guess one can always just echo the secret to a file and upload-artifact it

Could be, not familiar with Bazel. Thanks for mentioning it now can check it out.

Second the Nix approach. One can even build a github actions-compatible container out of a flake and have actions run in it. I have done so for my personal projects https://github.com/anttiharju/compare-changes

One can get the ssh access with self-hosted runners but it is problematic because uncovering secrets becomes trivial.

> What is the advantage that github actions provide that people put up with it? It's the default CI system on github and you get relatively free compute.
23.
by anttiharju 8mo ago
GitHub could invest a lot more in actions for sure. Even just in basic stuff like actions/checkout@v6 being broken for self-hosted runners.

by anttiharju 8mo ago
Does this discredit the answer?

This also helps one to avoid the expensive macos runners

Issue is, op is trying to use matrix strategy when with cross-compiling they could avoid it. I have done it for https://github.com/anttiharju/compare-changes (which has nontrivial CI pipelines but they could be a lot s
