TIL: how to disable cron for GitHub forks

Quick update to this post: no need to hardcode the repo owner name, which makes it easier to maintain projects across organisations.

Status update: I'm now automatically building and releasing a signed fork of stable moshidon with my patches. #CI is cool!

New post that shows how you can operationalize fabric-cicd to work with Microsoft Fabric and GitHub Actions.

Since I got asked if this post was available whilst I was helping at the ask the experts panel during The Microsoft Fabric Community Conference. #fabriccicd #GitHubActions #MicrosoftFabric

Wow, breaking news! Did you know you can use any program as a GitHub Actions shell? Next, we'll find out you can set your toaster as a CI/CD pipeline.

A leaked token in GitHub Actions turned a routine workflow into a supply chain nightmare. Could your CI be at risk? Discover the missteps and how to lock down your tokens before it’s too late.

GitHub Actions now supports free-threaded Python!

I wrote up how to add it your workflows so you can start testing free-threaded Python 3.13 and 3.14 with either actions/setup-python or actions/setup-uv.

Tired of manually submitting #rstats to CRAN?

Check out my experimental #GitHubActions workflow that automates submissions when you create a pre-release! Especially helpful for packages with compiled code.

Hi!

I'm Adrian, a FullStack #Developer looking for a job either in #Québec (or from it if you allow for remote work). I already have a permanent and open visa

I have experience building and maintaining web apps and APIs, designing systems, doing #DevOps and a bit of #BigData, #MachineLearning and #IoT

I'm experienced using #Elixir, #Phoenix, #LiveView, #NodeJS, #TypeScript, #Fastify, #Express and #Python ; and on the DevOps side in CI/CD pipelines (either #GithubActions and Gitlab CI/CD), #Docker and a bit of #Kubernetes

I was tasked with a lot of the #innovation happening in my previous company, researching tools, librairies, patterns or general technologies either for our own #DeveloperExperience or for our products

I also wrote a lot of technical and non technical documentation and internal presentations, and even participated in a few meetups. You can read some of my writing on my blog: https://blog.adrianc.eu

You might also have seen me on a few Elixir-related Discord servers, or even Bluesky (@adrianc.eu) and Twitter ; either sharing tech news, helping people, reading in book clubs or just chatting

I’m open to full-time right now, contracting work can be discussed.

I'm looking for any developer position, not only #ElixirLang, even though it represents most of my experience. And if the technology you're using isn't on my resume, give me a chance! I'm a fast learner and I might anyway have studied it in class :P

DM me for more info, like github link, my resume or anything :)

Boosts, responses and DM welcome, of course!

EDIT: I already have a visa, it was not super clear before

Is there a good GitHub Action for checking prose? Like formatting but also spell checking?

We want to have (potential) #user #feedback :)

If you use Github-/Gitea-/Forgejo- #actions , why have you not switched or what would make you potentialy do so?

If you are not in position to decide, just try to asume why :)

For "other" feedback, just comment "below" ;)

Please #retweet so we get more coverage :)

I wrote a little thing to show how to speed up CI using uv.

You can save about 20s on pre-commit linting and about 40s on a test matrix:

PS please share your tips too!

Was anyone in my bubble yet able to use #orbstack on #macos with #githubactions ?
or #colima would be also fine.

Or what do you use?

I do know docker-practice/actions-setup-docker - but it's really flaky.
