Every scaled org does this for good reason. Meta created sappling, Google created piper, AOSP built repo/gerrit. depth==1 should be the default and everyone should be aware of who’s working on what well before any conflict gets pushed. TFS and Perforce knew this 20+ years ago
New on our Engineering blog: Creating in-house source control.
In May, we merged around 2,500 code changes per day. In September, we merged more than 30,000 per day. As a result, we became bottlenecked by developer infrastructure built for human (rather than agent) scale.
Here, we share how we built a new version control system—and fully migrated our monorepo from git—in five months: anthropic.com/engineering/re…

Today I kneel to the maniacs at @BRP_Rotax. This 18 year old ski got hit by a nuke (Hurricane Helene) and was left for dead. Flooded hull, fried electronics, baked in a garage for 2 years. Battery, plugs, oil, coolant, and its 1494 cc 4-stroke runs like new 🫡

Hey GitHub have you ever considered that maybe I don’t want you to auto-collapse the +145 / -55 change to the most critical, high-churn source file in the codebase?

Delayed getting into SFO. Grandpa working the rental car counter after midnight saw I work for Ford and said he drives a Ferrari. Figure he’s kidding so I chuckle. He pulls out his phone and shows me a video of him and his son thrashing a yellow F8 Tributo

Huge victory for humanity when people like @DavidSHolz are building physical things again
Only costs $150Bn (25% USA yrly military budget) to deploy 2000Km of digitally controllable micron-thick solar sunshades which would allow us to variably adjust the temperature of the Earth. Blocks up to 2% of sunlight, controllable instantly from Earth (by rotating shades).
