Only four nines? Ridiculous.

This is cool - I just set up Github Actions for some Rubygems that we maintain for work, it's been a breath of fresh air!

Can't wait to dig more into it tbh, just looking at this list there are so many more powerful things other than checkout/releasing code.


Agreed, there're powerful integrations for testing, deploy, and frontend performance. And some interesting, like using scheduler to update profile (https://github.com/marketplace/actions/waka-box), or tmate connection (https://github.com/mxschmitt/action-tmate).


I think this is too little too late, mine (and many other's) opinion on them has been tarnished.

Good for them, but it's still going to be an uphill battle imo.


Check out the Elixir "protocol" feature, it's similar to interfaces: https://elixir-lang.org/getting-started/protocols.html


Protocols + the Typeclass library [0] makes for some of the most extensible Elixir code I've worked with.

Hi Elixir friend! Have you done a blog post on this by chance? I'd be really interested in reading one.


I haven't, but the creator of the library (Brooklyn Zelenka / @expede) has given a few excellent talks that reference her libraries. This is a personal favourite: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JD0FJTmuV_Q


I've used protocols, and they are useful as a kind of bare minimum interface/implementation abstraction. But they're nowhere even close to something like Rust traits. Which is totally fine given Elixir's goals.


I'm pretty deep into Elixir and have been learning a bit of Rust on the side this year, so this is interesting. Could you elaborate a bit?


I was just about to say, protocols fill the interface slot pretty well


This looks amazing! Looks almost as slick as GitKraken, without requiring all of my RAM+1GB to run.

Great work! I'll be recommending this to anyone who is looking for a git GUI client.


JFTR, Also take a look on Guitar[0] - another Qt-based Git GUI client.

I actually use Guitar, but GitQlient is also installed on my PC.

What does GitQlient do that Guitar, QGit, CodeReview, GitAhead, or git-cola do not?


I can open multiple repositories at the same time in the same screen. I actually forked from QGit becuase I was missing a lot of functionality and inactivity in the UI.

I couldn't find a way to do that in QGit and GitAhead at least. I didn't try the others.

Since finding this I find hangouts meet much more tolerable!


Agreed. This is my biggest complaint with it, the functionality is amazing but if you're on any sort of laptop the poor thing will melt halfway through a meeting.


Very cool article! I've been looking into getting a split board for ergonomics for a while now. I appreciate the comparison between all these different models.

Some of them look really good (the matias and the cheap kinesis especially, since I'd rather not solder my own board) but I can't get over the fact that some of them don't even care about the insert key. I need a full nav-group (eg pg up/down, home/end, ins/delete)!

Ergodox is still king though it looks like. So thanks again for the post!


You can use duck.com and it'll redirect :)


Very cool article! It will certainly be interesting to see how we get around these hurdles. The most interesting one to me was definitely the lack of being able to electrically ground anything, we will definitely have to design newer electrical motors etc to get around that!


It wouldn't really impact devices, it would impact buildings.

(for household service, ground and neutral are bonded at the service panel, grounding is a safety issue, not something electrical devices depend on to function)
