Rest are valid, I guess. But wouldn't your efforts be better spent helping improve asdf, instead of creating a whole new system?
The whole point of these tests and whatnot is to weed out the bad from the good. It definitely is unfair on those who are good, but I'm not really sure what the alternative is.
I dislike the take home tests as much as the next person, and only do them if I really want the job. Beyond that, it's a neccessary evil until something better comes along.
FWIW, I wouldn't put it past the US govt to ban cryptocurrencies. It just would be extremely hypocritical. Something the US is pretty familiar with.
This is a farce. There's not enough oil because OPEC+ has decided there is not enough oil. They can easily increase supply, causing the price of oil to be more consumer friendly, but no, won't someone think of their profits?!
Right. Instead, we (the UK) have two candidates that want to cut taxes for the individuals instead of making real change. BP has made 3x net profit compared to last year. ExxonMobil made 4x net profit compared to last year. Other energy companies have also raked in the profits. But yes, tax cuts will definitely help the poor, and not the rich!
2. Essential. K8s solves a problem that's quite complex. You can't really solve it in a simple manner.
3. Probably, but that 10% will require the additional abstractions and complications anyway, and it'll be easier to manage one system rather than 2.
Git can set up a post receive hook, which could do the triggering.
SSH key auth is a thing as part of Git+SSH.
Sure I couldn't set this with e.g. GitLab without them supporting GitLab, but if I'm self-hosting a git service, this seems like a fine solution.
This seems like a pretty cool feature to have in Linux.

Many people use Brave for nothing crypto related.
Metamask is just a crypto wallet.
I'm a Firefox user and don't use Metamask, but your comment is very iffy.
I understand what the owner of the API is trying to convey. "My service is up, and the URL itself exists" (status 200), but in the body "the data you requested doesn't exist" (result: true, error: "doesn't exist). If you are stubborn enough, you can even think you're right.
But by Odin's Beard this was one of the hardest APIs I had to work with. It doesn't help that most HTTP clients assume a sane* API expecting error codes based on the resources.
Note: I say sane, but within this context, this is of course subjective. For me, error codes corresponding to the resources is sane, but to OP this is clearly not the case.
"Who cares!" I thought to myself. "What can they even do?! As long as I don't pay them anything it's fine!" I naively told my parents, who were just as naive around these issues. I got told off a few times, not because I was giving out my data to every company under the sun, but because random things were coming through the door.
I remember once a prominent pet food company sent out a sample cat food package. I didn't even like cats. Pets were frowned upon in our culture.
Needless to say, I'm some 15 years older now, and I regret every single form I was filling out back then. I realise that everything has vastly changed and systems change, but I can't help but feel somewhere some system still has my data, and it's only a matter of time before something wrong happens with it, if it hasn't already.
This kind of thing probably targets similar households. Poor people who are generally uneducated on these matters. It's sad that such thing isn't outlawed.
They've got this data from somewhere, so why wouldn't they have looked through the license before using it?
Anyway, speaking of MySupermarket, what happened to them? All I know was one day they decided to shut down, without clear reasons. Does anyone have more insight into why it happened?
