That was the old docker compose. Things got a lot better since they rewrote it in Golang and update it again.

Have a look at multi stage container builds. Your images should not need a build step at start, the result should be in the baked image. Else you become reliant on fetching packages during build etc.

Better hardware would have to be bought with additional money. And no one can forecast reliably how much optimization is left in the game.

Wolves are back to continental Europe. Takes some time to get everyone to accommodate again. Breeders are not amused.

It would be interesting to have a list of places where you can use one. FabLab Zürich is the only hackerspace I found at first search. https://wiki.zurich.fablab.ch/Kniterate

When the agent uses your GH credentials to nuke all your projects or put out a lot of crap, this separation will not save you.

You got to weigh this against abortions for unborn children diagnosed (maybe even wrongly, the tests are really not that exact) with Down's syndrome. The slippery slope already began a long time ago probably.

The maker community is so much more than just 3D printing and soldering! The fight for open-source programming tools and open file formats are so important.

It needs internet access for upgrading the check bundle and for full Java library resolution (pom.xml). See e.g. https://github.com/aquasecurity/trivy/discussions/9698

Awesome writeup! I wonder whether with a real contact mic (Korg offers one for about 20 bucks) you could get much better results. Due to no 3,5mm on phones anymore it might be easier to use a sound-enabled SBC though.
