What Hacker News says

I'm building an open-core data IDE that runs as a desktop application or server. Since it's open source, all tests run on Github Actions for free. This includes basic e2e testing using Selenium on Windows, macOS, and Linux (e.g. [0]); and unit/integration tests. If it were a private repo I'd still shell out for Github Actions or Circle CI most likely. I'd also consider buying a chunky-enough minipc for ~$500 and an older mac mini and set up runners on them. For the moment private runners isn't a problem. But soon I'll need to start integration-testing proprietary code paths like querying Oracle or MS SQL Server. In that case I probably need to set up a dedicated box with all the right licenses so I can run CI jobs on it. [0] https://github.com/multiprocessio/datastation/blob/master/.g...
In Ask HN: Solo-preneurs, how do you DevOps to save time?
Contrary to some folks here I've had a pretty good experience learning Julia while adding support for it as an scripting language in an open-source data IDE I'm building [0]. It makes a lot more sense as a language to me than R (which is also a supported scripting language), but I'm slowly coming around to R too. I do agree that it is pretty slow to start, most other scripting languages I support finish much quicker on simple scripts. But I imagine the reason you use Julia over Ruby/Node.js is the libraries not just the startup time. But I really like that it has a builtin package manager unlike almost any other language (except R) which makes it very easy to install missing dependencies in a try-catch block. (Useful in my situation since its an IDE that runs on your computer using your existing python/ruby/julia install and only depends

on a single JSON library.) It's also neat that all hosted Github Actions images come with Julia built in so it's pretty easy to be working with it in automated environments as well. [0] https://github.com/multiprocessio/datastation
