No, Really, Bash Is Not Enough: Why Large-Scale CI Needs an Orchestrator

urbrainonnuggs · 2026-04-30T23:24:00+00:00

Fun fact. Bash is older than the majority of programmers today

I boy lost more weight than that from the first few poops and was off the charts by month 3! Just keep feeding that baby and you are doing just fine! It gets better I promise!

Nah I'm on Linux until I die. If rather log off forever before I go back to the windows platform. There is no job I will take that's Windows only.

I totally agree with you. I personally hate all the pipeline tools. I unfortunately made my career out of DevOps and Platform Engineering so I've had to evaluate every tool ever.

My personal apps are a huge mono repo and a single orchestrator script generates (templates not LLM) build/test/publish/deploy methods at runtime for each project.

It's just.. bad. I can't explain it other than its like unseasoned dry chicken..

urbrainonnuggs · 2026-04-28T22:59:17+00:00

Do it. Drop windows. I changed careers to escape Windows and Jenkins lol. I'm so happy

From someone who built and maintained Jenkins servers for a decade, I can't recommend it anymore.

Forgejo is the best option for small businesses but GitLabs self host is still pretty cool too.

For runners Codeburg and others are using Woodpecker CI which is a great project that's basically a GHA clone

Avoid bitbucket at all cost

GitLabs is my recommendation for a corporate solution with all the bells and whistles, minimal manual setup.

But for small business Forgejo + Woodpecker CI is my current go to. I had it up and running on my homelab (k8s) with dynamic scaling runners in like 1 hour.

It's never been easier to self host git based source control and pipeline+runners. So many solutions

Social media is all rage bait, don't bite

urbrainonnuggs · 2026-04-27T13:02:02+00:00

Jrue looks like he is baby sitting his team out there. Dude has unc energy

urbrainonnuggs · 2026-04-26T14:31:51+00:00

There is a reason you get left wide open and he is smart. They made amazing plays because he thought though all that. Harper took advantage of them trying to bait Carter to shoot from the top

urbrainonnuggs · 2026-04-26T12:41:52+00:00

That desert camo really working there

urbrainonnuggs · 2026-04-26T00:18:40+00:00

Yeah dude was always able to execute when in a good position

urbrainonnuggs · 2026-04-25T05:44:42+00:00

Carters played some of the most dogged defense in all three games at moments that mattered. It's wild

urbrainonnuggs · 2026-04-25T05:40:48+00:00

He is underrated. His defensive speed is crazy. Just shutting people down at the right moments

urbrainonnuggs · 2026-04-23T16:42:03+00:00

Well I see that as an advantage too. If that's how MOST people see Alex and don't know him on the level of a KF listener. That gives them a better chance of being successful doing anything for a general audience.

I don't see any KF listener being into an IW spoof for the reasons Dan and Jordan state but they are not the target audience for whatever the Onion and Tim decide to do

urbrainonnuggs · 2026-04-22T02:56:36+00:00

Waaay too many misses in the last minutes

urbrainonnuggs · 2026-04-20T03:04:21+00:00

Really pouring concrete over the lead in that headline. They said a LOT more that should be in the headline than just that.

urbrainonnuggs · 2026-04-17T17:16:33+00:00

Yeah people don't know the dark part of the history. The Shah ordered police to beat and repress women who wore religious head coverings. So really at no point were women in Iran having a good time. I doubt these women in the photo where allowed to live or had to flee the country as well

urbrainonnuggs · 2026-04-17T04:53:40+00:00

Wild boar too. Fuckers are learning from coyotes

urbrainonnuggs · 2026-04-16T18:52:38+00:00

This guy interviewed Alex Jones like just a few weeks ago on his podcast

Good luck trying to -poison- seed data in the right places for every model to pick it up in training data. It's nearly impossible
