  • They arrest a Briton every year for some dumb shit to remind everyone else to follow the law. At this point it has become a tradition, it’s like their version of Guy Fawkes night but with a real person.

    Usually the story is also a bit more complex than the “detained in Dubai” people tell you, sometime it is actually unfair, sometime they just hide half of the fact it to make it look unfair.

    In any case in the UAE, you can go to jail or at least get fined for insult and slander. You can agree or disagree whether it’s a good thing or a bad thing but everyone living there knows it.

    You don’t get arrested for bad reviews. People review stuff on gmap and other all the time. I’ve left my fair share of 1 star to crappy places so there must be more than “he was jailed for a bad review”. It’s most likely for insulting someone.

    Of course I have no idea what the other side of the story actually is or what the review said.











  • I mean for a hobby project that no one cares about sure. Otherwise the whole CI/CD process was invented exactly to avoid having devs push untested and untrackable crap on production servers. So once there are more than two people in a team and paying customers with access to a lawyer that’s going to be a hard pass.

    Anyway the main reason your CI/CD are slow is that you’re using $5 workers with 1Gb ram. There’s a reason the build is faster on your 12 core/64Gb laptop, the issue is usually not the process, the issue is being cheap on the infrastructure. The only good thing about GitHub CI workers is that they are cheap but performance wise they are garbage.
