I’m also a mobile app dev and at my workplace they’re having non-mobile devs submit code to my codebases totally vibed with no understanding behind it. It’s absolutely causing problems, especially for me, who is one of the only lines of defense keeping stuff even remotely maintainable.
So yes basically you’re right. If people only used it to learn and do initial code review passes and other reasonable things we’d be totally fine. But that’s unfortunately not the reality 🙈
That’s crazy, how is that even legal? You should have to deliver someone’s W-2 either to their physical address or provided email address.
I do! And also got my dad to switch to it this year 🙌
It’s always been good, and in the past few years they have been adding scanning for various documents, the lack of which was my only complaint about it before.
Depends on the state/law. Also from the blog
It can get worse. New York’s proposed Senate Bill S8102A requires adults to prove they’re adults to use a computer, exercise bike, smart watch, or car if the device is internet enabled with app ecosystems. The bill explicitly forbids self-reporting and leaves the allowed methods to regulations written by the Attorney General. Practical methods for a bill of such extreme breadth would require, in many instances, providing private information to a third-party just to use a computer at all. Privacy disappears.
Hmm I transferred a lot of my stuff from GitHub to GitLab a while ago mainly because of the free private repos. Was thinking about moving fully off GitHub but glad I waited 🙃 Still going to do it but gotta figure out which providers actually have their heads somewhere other than up their ass
