One of our engineers built a web-app crawler from scratch (why? enable users to quickly build a QA test plan). Jiri researched existing crawlers first and found nothing: he wrote about why build from scratch, plus technical challenges he ran into.

So good!

Gitea. Gitlab (ish?).

GitLab actually implemented Actions first back in the day (called CI/CD). I remember GitHub was following their lead.

Which is funny reading how TFA tries to feign ignorance:

> When we shipped Actions in 2018, we had no idea how popular it would become.

Gitea scales really badly with large repos in my experience. Gitlab works a lot better mostly because you can just throw more hardware at it. This is with a pretty large git repo and a lot of daily commits.

On the other hand, gitlab is a memory hog. You need a big vm dedicated to it.

We were on codeberg for a couple years and it was fine.

Yeah Gitlab is a pig, but that’s what I meant with you can throw hardware at the problem. I’ve been meaning to check out Codeberg for personal project hosting since it seems to address the shortcomings of gitea

GitLab scales much better horizontally than it does vertically.

4x 4c/16gb instances will perform much better than one 16 core 64GB instance.

You can also just use Gitlab Cloud but setup as many self hosted runners as you like.

Isn't it written in this super scaling language that everybody says scales super well?

What is the problem with it?

Is that true? There is obviously some creative work in connector design - optimizing for looks, robustness to damage, dirt, easy of use, reliability technically, etc.

Unfortunately this actually is believable. SMH.

We love them both...

Some customers (e.g. DoD, gov) basically exclusively use it, so you'd have to if you ever interacted with them. This is a win.

I get consistently ~1.3-1.6gbps on fast.com with similar setup (10g fiber, UDM Pro, E7, etc). I think where I live there are very few / zero folks on 6ghz...so, win.

Hitting a pet / animal should be treated the same as hitting a child? No.

I think the point is you don't know for certain what you hit if you hit and run. The car should have enough collision detection to know when it's hit something.

That said, this story is sending up red flags with the "allegedly" in the title and lack of evidence beyond hearsay.

I mean, you can riff through the comments of some Mission-local Instagram posts about this incident. There are plenty of eyewitnesses, including someone who was behind the Waymo in question. I'm sure the "allegedly" is there for legal reasons.

It's different as a) they did offer it for free and b) have to maintain it for the closed version.

However, this is also a classic move, so shouldn't be unexpected behavior these days...
