More proud of this than music plays on a shitty streaming service.

Not a bad year. Much learned, much accomplished.

And only a tiny bit of GenAI in the mix (home explorations, nothing released).

Hmm, TIL that GitLab can host public or private repositories!

At the tail-end of a recently completed contract, I integrated the team's shell scripts & other flat-files into the corporate GitLab repository server.
Sadly, time did not allow development of "deploy" tools nor setup of CI/CD pipelines.

While I seek my next engagement, I will look into setting up a repository or two on GitLab and explore some of the features.

@SaguaroLynx I self-host it. Quite powerful, though I suspect more chonky than it needs to be on account of being built on a whole lot of Ruby.

@SaguaroLynx self-hosting obviously impacts some of the collaborative potential depending on how many devs are in your house, but I'm fortunate to have at least a couple here who do the git thing, and I have some plans to open it up to a small circle of trusted folks separately.

Github the tool is pretty useful, but getting my lifelines out of the cloud is pretty important to me.

@litui

Yes! Decoupling from the "cloud" is important to me also! Having seen the various "take-overs" of OSS by corporate interests, I don't really want any of my important work to be subject to their whims.

As I expand my use of "git" & GitLab, I will setup a "remote" repository tree on an external drive, at the least. Perhaps sometime in the future, I will setup an old RPi 4 to serve as a self-hosted GitLab server.

@litui

I now have a "Project" repo on GitLab.com!

Now to find some samples of my skillset to upload & share. . .
