Did you pull it before checkout?

Yeah and this still wouldn’t cover something like xz-utils because I would only be aware of end user projects and not the libraries behind them. I’d have to draw up entire dependency graphs.

Ah, sorry.

Don’t forget rustaceans for rust!

I was going to say that Cloudflare uses nginx but I found that’s no longer true.

F5 is American, they just had a Moscow office.

However the creator of nginx, Igor Sysoev, is Russian.

Interesting though as it shows what “hard Brexit” was. Not in the customs union, economic area or council; just yeeted all the way out.

The best part is the voting slip never defined any of it and, if taken literally, the UK would still be in the EEA.

I feel like this is overlooked far too often. I rarely see anyone use data structures outside of (array) list and hash table and any attempt to use something descriptive of the problem is often shot down because of “familiarity,” which is sort of self-fulfilling.

I get away with flagging lists which should be sets, though.

The biggest issue most people have with it is the dynamic DNS feature, which is automatically enabled and contacts their server to create the record. If you turn this off before connecting the router to the internet, you’re probably good.

The simplified DoH client also only allows either Cloudflare or NextDNS, which aren’t the most privacy-oriented options. Still, it’s possible to set up your own.

Otherwise I’ve never heard of anything major; the devices are cheap and reliable. I’ve had one running constantly for years and only had to reboot it manually once.

Where did you get 100 from? I’m just asking if it’s a real limit or a guess at “some manageable number” under one million.

It can be worth experimenting and tuning this value. You might even find that less than 100 works better.

To be honest, I agree they should be able to be larger at times.

I had a lot of disagreements when I was on a new codebase, knew what I was doing and I was able to push a lot of code out each day.

The idea is to have them small, easily readable with a tight feedback loop. I argued that bootstrapping a project will have a lot of new code at once to lay the foundations and my communication with the team was enough feedback. If I split it up, each PR would have been an incomplete idea and would have garnered a bunch of unnecessary questions.

That said, I think it’s generally pretty easy to put out multiple PRs in a day, keeping them small and specific. As you say, half of the job is reading code and it’s nicer to give my coworkers a set of PRs broken down into bite sized pieces.

I’d be pulled up at my job for any PR exceeding a few hundred lines. I don’t even know what they’d do if I just dropped a 15000 line stinker.

Nice to know, I was pretty sure my experience was purely anecdotal.

I can anecdotally say that the more right-leaning people I know are the most anti-FOSS but I’m not sure that applies generally.

Even that comes with a caveat: the people I know disagree with it philosophically, i.e. they can’t see how it can work for the maintainer and won’t donate, yet are as happy as anyone to use something for free.

Yeah, this is one of those things which sounds great on paper but also introduces problems. I’ve seen people get really annoyed when exception messages are translated because it makes them harder to search for online. That would need to be solved too.

I’ve had huge issues collaborating on a spreadsheet with a Spanish client. It tries to open the sheet in your locale and then can’t find the functions. Insane that Microsoft didn’t even add some metadata to allow me to work on it in Spanish.

Bottom left is when I make a kubernetes cluster to serve up a mock weather API for practice.

Exactly. I used PHP for years, I haven’t “not used it.” It was the first programming language I seriously learned. Writing good code was tedious if not impossible and that became even more obvious as I expanded to C#, Java, Python and C++; none of which tolerated any of the bad and unconventional practices I’d inevitably picked up. Keep in mind, I was actively trying to avoid bad practices and pay close attention to types but still got kicked to the curb hard when I tried other languages. I haven’t had that since.

I appreciate it’s changed since, I’m happy to see it’s not the same dumpster fire it once was, I also don’t care. I don’t actively trash it, I just think there’s usually a better option.

Ruby on rails is alive, just not as popular. ASP.NET is popular but looks nothing like it did then; probably for the best.

Yeah, plus PHP was very popular circa 2011-2016 and laravel was loved by many around that time and beyond. It’s always been a useful language.

Even some shops working with Windows Server are asking “wait, why are we paying for these licenses?”

Then it comes down to whether it’s cheaper to rewrite legacy applications or continue to pay for licenses.
