A person bumps into at the train station. They just need $5 to get home. Could you just spare them $5? They had the money, but they lost their wallet and now they just need to get home.

Charity scams are nothing new.

Perhaps it elicited enough sympathy to get donations. Did it ever provide proof of actually running up an AWS bill?

Exactly. Considering you could buy an iPhone and a MacBook Neo for roughly the same cost … will be very interesting to see this device in action. Can iOS replace MacOS for a user that doesn’t need a local Xcode? Can I spend $2k for the device I use in my pocket and on my desk… and put the rest of my money into cloud/server infrastructure if I have that need?

Wouldn’t it be nice if services like Codespaces or Coder or Gitlab would allow you to target running on their hosted/integrated platform, or let you launch that same container completely locally? Sometimes I wanna take my “remote” dev environment off-line but still benefit from the integrated UX.

These are teenage girls, not adult men. This isn’t graffiti, but highly realistic sexual depictions.

There’s a massive difference.

Umm… zed supports remote dev over ssh… what’s your concern?

I would have assumed the opposite is true. Do you have any data to back that up?

Tools growing unexpected code execution is how we keep having problems with secrets and other important things being stolen. If you add this feature to git, generally, then anybody cloning a git repo is going to have to deal with the fact that `git clone` might run arbitrary code. `git clone` is like `cp`. Do you want `cp` to unexpectedly run code? It should never do that.

Why force git to be a build tool?

Just document how to execute the scripts/checks that will be used by ci. Provide a simple script in the repo that folks can intentionally execute.

Go to an ER or UC and have them dress a wound for you. They will use a healthy dose of petroleum jelly and generally tell you to stay away from antibiotic ointments.
