Do any of you have a recommendation for an alternative to GitLab and GitHub?


Darcs hub! :-)

https://hub.darcs.net


sourcehut (https://git.sr.ht)


Quite the feat to build a site this slow...


Their front page loads much more quickly for me than either Gitlab or Github's.


What's the issue with GitHub?


Last week people were mad that Microsoft complied with an order from the Spanish government to remove a controversial repo: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21395629

And before that some anti-Microsoft people were mad in general that MS bought GitHub.


Motives of the new owners.


Gitea or Phabricator


I've never seen Toyoda mentioned as the inventor of the lean model, I usually seen Taiichi Ohno credited for it.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taiichi_Ohno


W. Deming also played a pretty large role too[1]. The whole history around Lean/Kaizen/etc is pretty fascinating.

[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W._Edwards_Deming


Deming was about quality control, which dovetails into lean: you can only do the latter if you know your parts bin is good, and that you can trust your supplier/s to deliver.


In that sense, lean is essentially the same solution as reducing buffer size to increase network throughout.

Excess capacity pooling decreases stopages but prevents signalling of problems back through the chain.


Do you have some links for the history? I'm interested in Lean and Kaizen. Made a comment about it in this thread.


It's covered a little in the TAL episode on NUMMI[1]. There's also a bit of it involved with TWI[2][3]. I'd read some other interesting things about skill transfer post-WW2 with the Marshall Plan but having trouble finding the original source material.

This part from your link [2] is interesting:

>In the Foreword to Dinero's book "Training Within Industry", John Shook relates a story in which a Toyota trainer brought out an old copy of a TWI service manual to prove to him that American workers at NUMMI could be taught using the "Japanese" methods used at Toyota. Thus, TWI was the forerunner of what is today regarded as a Japanese creation.


Great, will check those links out, thank you.


Can't confirm or the reverse, but I do remember Taiichi Ohno's name being mentioned multiple times in the book (The Toyota Way), which I bought and read some years ago. Interesting book.

One of the things mentioned was the concepts of muri and muda, related to (not) wasting (stuff), IIRC [1]. Related to Kaizen [2].

Keemstar said he was offered 100000$ but turned it down. Ricegum said in his followup video that he was offered more since he has more subscribers.


Because of you i know who Ricegum is, you owe me.


Very sorry but know you know what kind of individual are popular on the site. Keep that in mind if/when you have kids.


Maybe you already know this but some padlocks can be easily opened using the same shimming technique.


My favorite si far is BaconReader.


From what I can gather by the maps, he's located in Quebec city in Canada and we didn't have custom plates until July 2018.


I just wanted to say that Scotia's corporate accounts do have 2FA with a physical token generator, so they do have the technology they just don't enforce it for consumer accounts.


If you enabled it (it is by default I believe), the conversations are stored in Outlook.

It sucks... but you can still get to them if you have access to Outlook.


When you say "you" here, do you mean "you" or the BOFH somewhere who controls the Exchange server? I stopped opening Lync at work because, among other issues, it wouldn't save conversations and I couldn't figure out how to make it do so.


Most versions of Lync/Skype for Business allow you to keep conversation history locally in Outlook. It's under Skype for Business> tools> options> Personal> check whether you have ticked “save IM conversations in my email Conversation History folder”. It can be disabled by the SfB admins though.

Newer versions do support server side logging to your Outlook mailbox too but it must be configured by the SfB and Exchange admins.


Doesn't work ~50% of the time though.


It kind of is, but like Reddit, you make you're own frontpage, you have to find the right communities for you!



Hubski! I knew there was one I was forgetting.

Also, thanks for the Snapzu and Soylent mentions, those are new to me.
