I'd say get rid of the electoral college. Popular vote to elect the president.

How can anyone vote for this guy? He's a glorified nut and liar.

You mean: how they will raise prices to account for that.

I might be misunderstanding the licenses so correct me if wrong.

Can companies use GPL code internally without release as long as the thing written with it doesn't get directly released to the public?

.. or does GPL pollute everything even if used internally for commercial purposes?

This reminds me of when a coworker wrote a protocol around sending encrypted messages back and forth inside of gchat to control another PC.

The reason was that: our company firewall doesn't let stuff go in directly, but we have internet.

I thought that was a nutty tos violation.

Each system had a Google account and would login and listen for messages from the controller.

Oh it's Twitter (currently known as X)

This hits the point already. Look at those weight loss drugs that help people lose weight and are needed by certain other people.

Look at all the celebrities all of a sudden on them and regular people's insurance won't cover them. The regular folks who need them have trouble getting them as a result.

 

For example, I opt out of all emails from a website. A year later they make a new newsletter and auto subscribe all to it.

I login, hit unsubscribe, then report as spam in my email client.

I figure auto adding me is more/less spamming me. Do y'all agree?

Anyone having a new issue where swiping from the left to go back to the thread list from a thread doesn't load properly and instead shows a black screen for a second or so.

You have a couple days left to buy stamps that can be used to mail letters after the price increase.

If you buy 10 forever stamps at 63 cents, you can use one for each letter in the future regardless of future price increases.

Stock up! Prices will likely never go down.

I bought a few hundred dollars worth to cover holiday cards for the rest of my life.

Hey folks,

This is an update to: https://sh.itjust.works/post/580838

On https://github.com/csm10495/commit-ment, I made it to somewhere around 22 million commits. I can't imagine this is not a world record for commits to a single branch. In the middle of the night, I got an email from GitHub support saying:

A few minutes later, I got another email like so:

I've asked them if the two emails are related (and I guess if the first one is some sort of error since there was no personal info in that repo). I've also asked if they can give any information about what triggered the email and if they can give me more info about what it looks look on their side.

I've also asked if they can re-enable it so I can give one more commit to say the final results on the readme then (public) archive it.

We'll see what they say.

Doing a pull is interesting at the moment, it shows:

git pull origin master --no-rebase -vvv
ERROR: Access to this repository has been disabled by GitHub staff due to
excessive resource use. Please contact support via
https://support.github.com/contact to restore access to this repository.
Read about how to decrease the size of your repository:
  https://docs.github.com/articles/what-is-my-disk-quota

fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

Similar thing happens if you try to clone: [email protected]:csm10495/commit-ment.git

So yeah, I figured this would happen sooner or later. I just hope they can tell me a bit more about what it looks like on their side since managing this repo on my box is a pain, I can't imagine what it could look like on theirs. I'm also curious how pull requests could merge at such a rate given that just doing a pull on my end could take minutes. So many questions!

This whole project was really just for curiosity on my end, so anything I can learn/find out is much appreciated on all ends.

Anyways, just figured I'd update y'all.

This isn't an ad.. someone posted this. What?

 

I decided to see how many commits GitHub (and git) could take before acting kind of wonky. At ~19 million commits (and counting) to master: it's wonky.

The GitHub API has periodic issues merging/creating PRs. (I use PRs since that is more reliable than keeping a local master up to date via pulling at this point).

GitHub reports... infinity infinity commits. Doing a full clone from GitHub Actions is taking around 2 hours.

Using:

git pull origin master

to update my local master hangs for a while before even printing anything.

If anyone has seen a public GitHub repo with more commits to its main branch, let me know.

If anyone wants to see how slow wonky git acts at this scale, feel free to clone.
