This is really cool, looking forward to trying it out. Obligatory mention of Neon ( https://neon.com/ ) and Xata ( https://xata.io/ ) which both support “instant” Postgres DB branching on Postgres versions prio

Aurora clones are copy-on-write at the storage layer, which solves part of the problem, but RDS still provisions you a new cluster with its own endpoints, etc, which is slow ~10 mins, so not really practical for the integration testing use

No worries, thanks!

Nice work @jdxcode, this looks great. Is there any functionality in this release that might help with or be useful in features for sharing Mise config/tasks _across_ repos? And do you have any thoughts on that idea in general? https:&

I don’t understand what you mean, sorry. If you are manually copying a password, then you are not using passkeys? There is nothing to copy/accidentally leak with passkeys. I guess it will be a while before passkeys are the _only_ optio

Phishing protection? Unlike passwords, passkeys are bound to a domain.

Hi @tudorg - do the Xata copy-on-write branches work like Neon in that you effectively get an isolated Postgres cluster, allowing you to test roles, extensions, creating/dropping DBs, altering schema & data of existing DBs, etc? I

Obligatory mention of https://raindrop.io/ I switched from Pinboard a year or more ago after using it for many years, mainly because I found the iPhone app and integration (eg share feature, to save bookmarks) to be flaky.

Until Neon can fix that, I found it on the Wayback Machine - https://web.archive.org/web/20240524181543/https://neon.tech...

Yes, also definitely a big vote for Mise. I’ve switched recently from asdf for managing language & tool versions and the ergonomics are much nicer (eg one command vs having to manually install plugins, etc., more logical commands) It’s

I’d not heard of Neon, it looks interesting. When you say “a copy-on-write version of your prod database”, from reading the docs, this includes both schema and data? I couldn’t find anything on data anonymisation/obfuscation - how do y

Exa is unmaintained, but there’s a maintained fork called eza - https://github.com/eza-community/eza

I would suggest never doing that, because it makes it impossible, or at least very difficult, to: 1. Lint the code using ShellCheck, which IMO is essential for any shell 2. Run and test that code locally, or anywhere outside of the CI tool

Looks like a decent list, but mostly not really Linux, just Unix/GNU?

Is saying “most of something” a universal generalisation? The comment didn’t say “you’re not a crypto enthusiast _unless_ you believe X”. It just made an assertion (which, for what it’s worth, I think is incorrect) that the majority have a

There’s an awkward gotcha/incompatibility between “Required status checks” and workflows that get skipped [1], eg due to setting a “paths” property of a push/pull_request workflow trigger [2]. The checks associated with the workfl

Yes, absolutely! I loved listening to the Reith lectures many, many years ago, when Vilayanur Ramachandran gave them. You can still listen to them here, http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/reith2003/ In Lecture 4 (Purple

How does this compare to Mergify? https://mergify.io/

by horse666 5y ago
Heh. Aaron Patterson (aka tenderlove), core Ruby and Rails contributor, agrees with you. Although maybe not as forcefully :) https://tenderlovemaking.com/2016/02/05/i-am-a-puts-debugger...

One approach to avoid this karlicoss is to add a “workflow dispatch” section to the “on” events in the workflow: workflow_dispatch: inputs: debug_enabled: description: 'Run the build with tmate debugging enabled (

Just because something might be impossible to solve fully, doesn’t mean we shouldn’t still try? For example cryptography is an arms race against code breakers, but that’s not a reason to just give up on encryption? Also a multi-front defenc
