Good call on wait times on the website. 5 minutes further away there was no wait time vs 45 minutes nearest to me. Easy peasy.

I’m in a deep purple area, 49.5 to 49.0% in favor of Biden in 2020. I’ve tried to vote twice so far this week between meetings and the line was wrapped around the building, I’ve never seen it like this.

If LLMs were accurate, I could support this. But at this point there’s too much overtly incorrect information coming from LLMs.

Sure, self-hosting is a great option for very large projects, but a random python library to help with an analytics workflow isn’t going to self-host. Those projects, along with 27,999,990 others have chosen GitHub, often times explicitly to reduce the barrier to contribution.

Also, all of those examples are built on thousands of other FOSS projects, 99% of which aren’t self-hosting. This is the same as arguing only Amazon is a bookseller and ignoring the thousands of independent book publishers creating the books Amazon is selling.

GitHub has 28 million public repos

Gitlab is has less than an order of magnitude as many Under a million in 2020, and nearly 80% without FOSS license.

Is it everyone’s favorite, or best, or most feature rich. Nah. Is it where the FOSS projects are. Yes.

Been to Santa Fe and it required a full day and was complete sensory overload. I’m looking forward to visiting this new one but want to wait for the newness to wear off and get to enjoy it without the crowds.

My advice if you go is to take all of it in. There was so much attention to the details that it’s easy to miss some cool things if you try to move to quickly.
