Only main is protected, you can force push on feature branches.

No, it does not prevent pushing (as long as the pre-hooks work) but you cannot deploy from a failed pipeline/branch because you have defective software, as proven by failed tests.

Not quite.

• Every commit is just a local commit
• Every push runs pre-hooks which execute bunch of checks, for example linters, style checkers, etc. and prevent a push if something is not perfect
• After every push the CI/CD pipeline runs on origin
• Every run of the pipeline executes again checks with linters but also securoty checks for CVEs on dependencies and runtime
• Every pipeline run also executes all tests such as unit tests, scenario tests, integration tests
• If any of the above fails, the pipeline fails and stops
• Only if everything is okay, one can deploy on dev, the first stage
• Only if this is okay, the artifact gets pushed to the central artifact store
• Only if this suceesa a prod deployment can run, which pulls the artifact from the store
• Runners for dev and prod are distinct and don’t have rights the other has, the only common contact point is the artifact store

That’s an extremely very basic overview with many steps and concepts omitted but you get the idea.

If you have code that is not complete it is not qualified to be deployed. Cut work items into smaller chunks but never deploy not fully, 100% working and tested stuff. Not even on dev.

If you have tests you have to automate them and have a pipeline which stops any deployments when these tests fail. You definitely have a mindset issue and not a management or tool issue. I am not sorry but as a DevOps Engineer I can only say you guys are a lousy hack and should probably seek a different job.

If you don’t tell them you’re a sociopath.

What a coincidence as I just watched this from one of my favourite youtubers:

TheYamiks - The Failure of Game Graphics (35:29)

https://youtu.be/5LvxG5zbSK0

Where he reflects on how the graphics of current games came to be technically and why they are so terrible as they are.

No, no comment in the sense of I have no experience with 24h watches so I cannot comment on them regarding this topic. If others have experience they might add their share, which they did.

Thought as much but never had any experience with 24h watches, so no comment on this from my side :)

I have never seem a 24h wrist watch (I know they exist) aside from extremely seldom as wall clocks

No it’s not, with a 12h format on an analog watch you can use the sun to find true north. It is also easier to read it when the hands have double the amount of degrees to indicate the number.

Edit – digital watches should use 24h, I fully agree, maybe there was a misunderstanding because it’s analog watches we’re talking about here and these could stay 12h IMHO

Uh, this sexist “cartoonist” again. Let’s just hate each other, shall we?

It’s your IPv6. If you change to IPv4-only they do not ban. You can check with ip addr if it shows v6 addresses. You then can disable them by various means. Had to do the same to reeable freetube and yt-dlp.

“Pro Palestine” protests usually involve destruction or damaging of real estate, furnitures and other properties. I can understand them locking the building down to prevent excessive damage to their stuff they need to operate their main business.

My Linux doesn’t expire for now over 10 years. What’s your sales pitch exactly?

Don’t write yourself off yet, learn metric.

Incredibly addictive and pretty difficult.

That screenshot looks disgusting. Unsharp font, irritating icons, weird fontset. Is that GNOME and/or Ubuntu? Terrible.

If the knob of your new-bought stovebreaks to talk to the seller or the manufacturer and request a new knob if it was a manufacturing problem. You don’t go around and steal knobs from innocents.
