I called mom back because she left 3 voicemails, and it took so much energy, that I lost. What's so bad about calling your mom back?


I did the same thing and lost a ton of energy and masking. Maybe Mom is a boss character in this game


I sometimes want to save a useful python script, or a function in github, but don't want to create a whole repository with README, name, description and so on. This model would be nice for that. But then, the access control system (e.g. private/public repos) would be completely different. Perhaps you could have groups of users, and give group access to individual objects (classes/functions) in your repo. But giving access to each object one by one would probably be tedious, so you need some kind of modules, or other way of grouping objects (maybe tags?). I also thought of tags on one of my jobs as DevOps. We had a lot of types of repos, that we needed to organize, and enforce access control: - code repos like backend and frontend - infrastructure repos with k8s manifests, helm charts etc. - also a lot of microservice/microfrontend repos The team lead was trying to come up with a hierarchy for all this, but struggled. If github allowed for a flat namespace of repos, and tags-based access control, we could create tags like 'frontend', 'devops', 'backend', give the tags to people and repos.
