Me gusta estar al tanto de las novedades de algunos de los servicios que tengo autoalojados. ¿Cómo lo hago? Cuando son proyectos alojados en GitHub, me suscribo a la página de _releases_ a través de su feed y lo agrego a mi lector RSS.

Por ejemplo, para el proyecto de Miniflux la página es `github.com/miniflux/v2/release. Bastará con añadir al final de esta url `.atom` para localizar el feed.

"Only approved organisations can verify, and I'd expect that to be for their official accounts or employees, not everyone."

"..not everyone"

Which has been a major part of the discussion on #Github

Personally I could not care less about Bluesky

It's just always interesting to see the opening salvos (and yours has not been the only one I've seen) of the next Big PR Blitz(tm)

How about installing VS Code on a #GitHub Windows runner? This allows you to do this unattended.

runs-on: windows-latest
steps:
- uses: gbraad-actions/install-vscode-action@main
- name: Run VS Code serve-web
run: |
code serve-web --host 0.0.0.0 --without-connection-token

Handy with #Tailscale when you want to debug the build on a runner. Pr even to quickly enable RDP and log in.

I nowadays get the same uncomfortable feeling when engaging with #GitHub that I used to get when dealing with #Google. Maybe I'll soon reach the point where seeing someone use GitHub is as much of a culture shock as spotting someone searching with Google is to me today 💥

Hopefully all the projects I'm interested in would have moved on by then :forgejo:

#GitHub mini tip:

Use the GitHub CLI command `gh issue develop -c` to create and checkout a local branch linked to the given issue. No need to name the branch, and when you later run `gh pr create`, the pull request will be linked to the issue automatically.

i've just released zizmor v1.6.0!

this release comes with a lot of bugfixes that have accumulated over the last month, plus some big new features:

1. there's a new audit, `forbidden-uses`, which allows users to configure allow/deny policies for third-party actions!
2. the `unpinned-uses` audit has been completely rewritten, and now also supports configuration (e.g. to give your own first-party actions a weaker pinning policy than "must be hashed")
3. there's a new `--format=github` mode, which emits GitHub annotations. these come with quite a few limitations, but may be useful to users who can't use `--format=sarif`!

plus much more; read the full notes here:
