The current state of GitHub

It's not a secret that I dislike all the things that Microsoft owns, and yet, I'm haunted by them every single day. No day passed by without I'm forced to use Microsoft Teams, Azure with their terrible excuse of scrum boards, or GitHub, with their lack of features only being compensated for the free things they offer. The only exception is VSCode, but they are really trying their best to make it as bloated as possible, so I have high hopes for Zed. The last straw Today, I noticed something very special: GitHub is working on lists to organize your…

Running Jobs in a Container via GitHub Actions Securely

stp2y0 CommentsNewsaws, cicd, coding, community, development, engineering, github, inclusive, software, tutorial

Like any modern CI/CD platform, GitHub allows users to run CI jobs in a container. This is great for running consistent and reproducible CI jobs as well as reducing the amount of setup steps that is required for the job to run (e.g., running actions/setup-python to install Python environment and installing necessary packages via pip) as those environments and dependencies can be baked into the container. In order to make use of this feature, in the GitHub yaml file, specify the container to run any steps in a job via jobs.<job_id>.container. This will tell GitHub to spin up a container…

Esses dias, navegando no X, me deparei com a seguinte imagem E achei engraçado, porque eu e você provavelmente já nos vimos nessa situação: adicionamos os arquivos e ficamos literalmente travados pensando o que colocar de mensagem no commit. Muitas vezes os arquivos são em pastas e contextos diferentes, o que dificulta ainda mais a pensar em uma mensagem condizente. E é aí que mora o problema: Quando commitamos todos os arquivos com o famoso git add . fica muito difícil resumir em uma frase o que foi feito naquele commit. E você no fundo sabe que uma hora ou…
