Sorry I have nothing to contribute to the discussion except:

YES!!!

I use Voyager because it is very similar to Apollo. Also, you can self host it.

“Divinity”. “Source”

They don’t really care why, just don’t say anything that trashes your current employer or makes you look bad.

If you are feeling it is wrong, then it’s not right for you.

I personally don’t have any problem with age differences. Unless the older person is deliberately taking advantage of the younger.

There’s a lot. In the late 1800s it started becoming something of a tradition for billionaires to move on to philanthropy after their retirement. J.D. Rockefeller was worth several hundred billion dollars in today’s money. He gave away close to 200 billion of it.

A more modern example that people have brought up is Bill Gates.

You are right, my bad. Lorenzo Snow presided over a debt crisis and encouraged members to pay tithing, but tithing itself was implemented in 1838 as you said.

LDS leader Lorenzo Snow started tithing in the late 1800s because the church was broke.

Now the church has billions upon billions, but have never stopped tithing. They need that Gen Z’er minimum wage money, right?

I haven’t gone that rabbit hole but I probably will 😊. Right now I just have o e ESPhome light bulb

Sure, why not. Gotta ban something.

Smart home. Probably over 10k over the years

Nice way of putting it. My feelings and vote exactly.

Having the e2e smokes be a requirement for PR merge is frustrating. But I’ve been on the fence before with this on my own teams. It’s enticing to have a completely “clean” main branch that has not been infested with regressions caused by a PR.

It also gives you confidence in the crummy cases where you need to push a fix to prod right now.

If the e2e’s flap too much, then it is not an option. I’ve tried it and it lasts one sprint before we nix it. It’s just too frustrating and development comes to a standstill.

We have a retry policy on any smokes that need to run in a step by step order, and we aggressively prune and remove smokes that frequently fail or don’t test for real issues.

I actually think that’s the best way to handle it.

Who fixes the issues that the smokes find?

On teams I’ve been on, typically a junior dev. Sounds crummy, but it actually gives them more experience with the product/code. I have been that junior dev before and I found it a positive experience.

The Mole: Undercover in North Korea

Putting that on my watch list now, thanks!

I’m embarrassed and a little ashamed I lol’d at that. Being a body double is a pretty crummy vocation.

I think he’s dead. But I didn’t know about the body double thing. The thing is, all of Wagner leadership getting on a plane together and flying over Russia seems so, pardon me, idiotic. So idiotic that now I know about the body doubles I am questioning the whole situation now.

I just block them. Nothing wrong with them—I’m just not interested in the topic.

Nothing. Unless it’s for a product I exceptionally like (count=1) I just allow bug reports.

How ironic it would be if somebody showered them with riches to go and create mayhem within Russia. My experience of mercenaries is that they are not too picky about whose money they take.

That’s an interesting take I hadn’t considered. There are plenty of parties who could pay more than Russia. They’d just need to find a way to do it without being caught.
