By "repair" they of course mean the LLM agent will drop all DBs.

My "code" they of course mean they will use some easterners with lower-than-minimum wage cause it's cheaper than tokens.

@rysiek this line gets me:

Not only is the value of software for builders increasing, but we believe there will be more software and builders than ever, and we will serve an increasing volume of both.

Yep! that's what the world needs the most right now, more software. Oh and more "builders", because it seems that delegating all this software work to "agentic AI" means more managerial posts than ever. The superintelligent machine baby is gonna need a lot of nurses and caretakers, it would seem.

@mxchara what he's also saying here is:
- there will be way more software being built;
- the value of that software (i.e. price, in this context) will go up.

That it is not how supply and demand works.

@rysiek May all the world's #GitLab instances be migrated to #Radicle! :-)

@rysiek @frumble me too. We are currently too much invested in complex build pipelines and regulations procedures that. But we are definitely looking for alternatives in the longer run.

Unfortunately there is only GitHub in close comparison. I don’t know anything else capable of being used for business when you want an integrated version control and CI/CD tool (so no Jenkins (🤢) here, whateverforgit there)

If anybody knows an alternative please respond.

@maschinentraum pretty much right after this gitlab announcement was posted, a gitlabber posted an unofficial CI tool they wrote for running gitlab CI/CD pipelines without gitlab.
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-runner/-/work_items/2797#note_3339902449

what's interesting is it makes use of the official gitlab-runner connected to a mock gitlab rest api service... i imagine a similar approach could be used to integrate gitlab ci/cd into another git forge via an intermediary service, potentially giving folks who are locked into their CI/CD an off-ramp to something else.

@maschinentraum I will move to self-hosted Forgejo. Have you looked at Codeberg and SourceHut?

@rysiek @maschinentraum @frumble so far not seriously (gitlab was fine). Thanks, will consider that options.

If you liked #gitlab, you'll LOVE #Forgejo.

@rysiek where are you heading too? #Codeberg with #forgejo?

Michał "rysiek" Woźniak · 🇺🇦

@rysiek@mstdn.social · yesterday

@kedMertens I self-host a GitLab instance, so I will probably deploy Forgejo instead.

@rysiek awesome! Even though forced move. Very curious to hear from you about the migration experience.

@arclight@oldbytes.space · yesterday

@rysiek I've been freeloading off GitLab too long. Tried self-hosting their open version of their software so I could pull my repos in-house but I didn't have the patience to sort out undocumented broken containers. This is the motivation I need to migrate everything to Codeberg and send them an ongoing donation to cover costs.

GitLab worked well for me but my usage level never justified a paid account. Sad to see them spiral down the AI drain but it's been coming for a while.

Gitlab had a great thing going and they'll be pushing a lot of loyal users away by this. Fuck AI

@rysiek #TechBros gotta bunker down while peak stock markets and other assets, take the inevitable slide from greed #Capitalism.

Backup plans far enough away from these effects, is paramount - especially if you or yours can make a rudimentary difference, in a more #sustainable ecosystem.
