It’ll just get ignored. I saw a fucking padding: 0.0.3rem at work today, and it just broke the one class.

I’ve had an RPI3 running for 7+ years (currently running Home Assistant on it). Still uses the original SD card that shipped with it, too. These things are durable and reliable as hell, as far as I’m concerned.

It’s not that we want to ignore warnings.

Speak for yourself, I promise you the team I work on actively ignores warnings and doesn’t even want to solve them as they pop-up. Being told you can’t compare doubles (because of precision loss) and ignoring it is on the developer and isn’t even that hard to fix. Most of our warnings come from shit like that.

Like, I get it. It’s probably not worth it to hunt down every “unused variable” warning (especially in an API where we used to have a variable for it and we don’t use it anymore and we don’t want to break the existing API so we just leave it there), but there’s things that are just trivial to fix when you’re working on code that’s right next to it.

Oh yeah, I’m genuinely about to hand-in my resignation as soon as I find another job over this kind of shit. I keep being told that the business is really trying to clean-up its act when it comes to coding practices, but they keep putting some of the most incompetent people I’ve ever worked with in charge of shit (because they do promotions based on years of experience instead of actual actionable experience). It’s awful.

First thing I do on my projects is enable warnings as errors and increase my warning levels when reasonable.

Unfortunately, the same can’t be said on the projects I work on at work. Drives me crazy that we get likes 300+ warnings whenever we run the app and that we can’t change it because "they’re just warnings*.

you won’t get table layout as we had in dark ages of Html

I kind of get it.

• No images is because they want it to work in a plaintext environment.
• No tables because you just know someone is going to use it to format stuff that isn’t tabular data, though I guess there isn’t a way to actually render tabular data either…

motherfuckingwebsite is pretty old at this point. I remember seeing it on Reddit like 10 years ago. Parallax was all the rage back then, when we called “hero” images “jumbotrons” (because Bootstrap called it that, I think?)

I find it makes my life easier, personally, because I can set up and tear down environments I’m playing with easily.

Same here. I self-host a bunch of dev tools for my personal toy projects, and I decided to migrate from Drone CI to Woodpecker CI this week. Didn’t have to worry about uninstalling anything, learning what commands I need to start/stop/restart Woodpecker properly, etc. I just commented-out my Drone CI/Runner services from my docker-compose file, added the Woodpecker stuff, pointed it to my Gitea variables and ran docker compose up -d.

If my server ever crashes, I can just copy it over and start from scratch.

Currently? Zero reason.

Lummy, the creator of Gitea, wrote a post about why he moved Gitea over a company.

The TL;DR; is that it allowed Gitea to better work with companies that wanted to fund them but couldn’t fund individuals directly, moved the Gitea trademark to an entity that could outlive the creator, etc.

There hasn’t been any significant changes to how Gitea operates or can be used from a user point-of-view since the change happened.

Forgejo is a fork of Gitea that will pull changes made from Gitea, without being a company. In the events that Gitea goes to shit, it’ll be there as a replacement.
