versecafe

Building @gitcafe and pondering why we thought git was a good idea, previously engineering at @UseCorgi

[versecafe @the_versecafe]

@rough__sea you should try doing an entire engine, much more fun, and arguably more sane then doing node compat

@theCTO @bekacru @pierrecomputer @DAYTONA What could possibly go wrong from using Daytona runners with a tiny max size and a massive markup over the compute

[Sam Lambert @samlambert]

4 leading ones. gitcafe too.

[versecafe @the_versecafe]

@samlambert @jrysana will do 🫡

[versecafe @the_versecafe]

@samlambert @jrysana We’ve been planetscale pg from day one but waiting for neki and a tad worried about how it’ll play on latency with our move to bare metal on latitude off AWS

[versecafe @the_versecafe]

@henrytdowling not that anti git it's a pretty good standard and will probably win from being everywhere, but do you know how many performance wins are just off by default in the git cli because "it might break other programs that read .git"

[versecafe @the_versecafe]

@thorstenball Hey thorsten if your GHA workflows + SOC2 requirements would you consider moving to something with a few less weekly outages?

[versecafe @the_versecafe]

@kirtandopamine @github Unfortunately we can't opensource without being immediately eaten by a competitor (try forgejo if you want that tho) we do have GHA support in Beta

[versecafe @the_versecafe]

@gitcafe where you can have github actions without github anywhere in the stack

[versecafe @the_versecafe]

@yagiznizipli @X This is fascinating as it's historically just WebKit so no Temporal, but no Intl is a bit odd unless their fork is ancient or they're running a weird chopped up version where they ripped Intl out (or their ICU setup is cooked)

[versecafe @the_versecafe]

@zenohosting @jrysana @samlambert @gitcafe if it's compliance related entire might have it I definitely won't we just don't have the time to go through paperwork until the product stabilizes

[versecafe @the_versecafe]

@zenohosting @jrysana @samlambert @gitcafe We don't rely on github at all, we're rebuilding GHA from scratch to make migrations easier, we control our entire infra stack (I regret this often but much higher ceiling), we built it all in a fraction the time with a fraction the team and a fraction the funding of entire.

[versecafe @the_versecafe]

@zenohosting @jrysana @samlambert I mean I personally have to shill since I make @gitcafe but we're just entering public beta, so maybe not the best choice but hey probably still more stable then GitHub

[versecafe @the_versecafe]

@jrysana @samlambert oh they're doing great they just pivoted away from being an actual forge to a substrate others can build on

[versecafe @the_versecafe]

@samlambert @jrysana pretty sure pierre doesn't count since it's not a forge anymore, and entire still requires a github account but hey PlanetScale is still great

[versecafe @the_versecafe]

@theo already on it, we got some GitHub Actions working already on prod, certainly needs polish but at least it works

[versecafe @the_versecafe]

@NathanFlurry please, yes, do you know how hard it is to get bare metal racks from the cloud providers full of SSDs

[versecafe @the_versecafe]

@jasoki someone somewhere got funding for it and is stuck in infra hell making everyones github actions migratable without a rewrite :)

[versecafe @the_versecafe]

@TonyXavier_ @depotdev if you're willing to stay trapped with github @gitcafe if you want a full replacement
