  • Not specially you, just a comment about the license: OP's problem with attribution is minor. The major problem they have is that Microsoft took his time to get a personal intro to the project, forked it and didn't contribute back. That's what he's unhappy about. That there was no attribution is barely important.

    Yes, choosing MIT doesn't require hem to contribute back and it should've been a restrictive opensource license, but it seems he really thought they asked for a call in order to join in on the development.

  • We really need a license that works out compensation for opensource projects used by companies or anyone generating revenue from it. This stuff will keep on happening at the same scale it does otherwise.

    https://postopen.org/ might be one of those licences and they need funding.

  • 37883 people have expressed their support already – are you one of them?

    Pity the is such a non-issue to people. But it's probably because they haven't been made aware of it nor had it shoved in their face for years. Ads and marketing do work, but FSF probably doesn't have money to do so...

  • And already the purists are going "if I may interject for a moment" or screaming "reeeee", as was expected. It's like they can't comprehend that the world has changed and that text written 25 years ago doesn't stay correct, applicable, or right forever.

    The pearl clutching gasp of "but this is against scripture" truly never gets old.

  • Everything has it's uses. make is maybe good at incremental builds but is (an)used as a task runner which requires the use of "PHONY" in many places, it has about 6 different ways to declare and use variables all with different gotchas, generally has a convoluted syntax, it doesn't support different interpreters per task, and lacks a bunch more features. Just explore the feature list and examples that just has.

    It's simply outdated and mostly lives by the power of defaults and graybeards insisting on its use. Therecs no surprise that things like cmake, nmake, and other tools sprung up to replace it.

  • I ripped the "met life" shirt off of the snoopy plush and trashed everything else.

    Trashing was maybe unnecessary? Could've donated it to those in need.

    However I do support the sentiment. Fuck Microsoft. Hopefully you'll be able to find employment that is more fulfilling and less genocidal. (This is not a stab at you, I get working for an evil company and wanting to get away from it).

  • I think Asahi Lina needs a good long break and the kernel mailinglist should be replaced with a source forge that supports merge requests. The entire discussion could've just been avoided had the commits been there: all the commits from Lina, then those from Danilo on top. Git history preserved, problems solved.

    Regrettable that the tools around the linux kernel are still so archaic.

  • I can't find documentation about that unfortunately 🧐 There's woodpecker-cli exec but after testing that on the example pipeline, it does nothing even with verbose logging.

    Do you have a functional example somewhere?

  • What if they pull in a new dependency with a CVE or that executes malicious code? How am I supposed to check that? Or what if I miss a bug in the justfile or shell script?

  • After perusing the docs, this looks more like it. Thank you. I'll just have to explore how it can be combined with projects that use nix and those that don't. My biggest issue with CIs has always been caching, but as the saying goes "there are 2 hard problems in computer science..."

  • Is that easy to run for contributors? Can you just gitea-run-ci and it'll run the CI locally in your checked out repository?

  • Why ansible? I'm not sure how that fits in. Does that make running it locally easier? An example of working setup that I can checkout and run would be useful.

  • Are you able to run woodpecker locally from the repository? As in can woodpecker run in the checked out repository run the CI jobs?

  • I thought you were joking, but this dude seriously uses windows for development. No wonder he's running into so many issues. I can't imagine a big chunk of rust developers using that terrible OS.

    Edit: I'm surprised at the number of things he tried though and how many worked.
