I'll be presenting " 101: Dip into the Delicious World of Software Supply Chain Security" as part of the Cloud Native Computing Foundation's Live series at noon Eastern on June 11. There will be puns.

I want the equivalent of 'lint' or 'ruff' for GitHub repos. Does the repo name match a pattern? Are the right issue labels set up? Et cetera. I can write a script to do this, but if it already exists, a pointer would be welcome: how do you manage the 780 repos your org has?

@gvwilson OpenSSF Scorecard (https://securityscorecards.dev/) might cover a few of the things you're looking for (or things that you're not but you maybe should be). I've never thought about a project configuration linter, though. The TODO group has something kind of in that direction: https://github.com/todogroup/repolinter but it's more about the code than the repo itself.

I'm not aware of anything that solves your problem directly, but I'd be interested in contributing to a solution if you decide to build one.

@larsmb ish. There's a big difference between A/B testing and A/B/C/D/E/F testing, though. Not just in analyzing the results, but just in figuring out which combinations can/should be put together. And not everything is telemetrizable (that's a word now).

Realized today that I did not punch out the drain holes in the pot for my peace lily. I have fixed...the glitch, but wow was there a lot of water trapped in there. Sorry, ol' plant! I hope you recover quickly.

    @josh mostly-uninformed thought I just had: community-driven projects should be under a 501(c)3. Company-driven projects are fine under a 501(c)6.

    Does this make sense or am I drawing a distinction without a difference?

    There's an occasional beep that I don't recognize and I can't tell if it's coming from inside the house or from outside but it's not regular enough to camp out and try to get a fix on.

    Apparently if you post to the Fediverse nobody can reply to you.

    That’s a feature we need to bring to Mastodon ASAP.

    There is a lot of talk about how lucky we were. And that somehow this is a bad thing.

    I want to bring up the Birthday Paradox:

    https://betterexplained.com/articles/understanding-the-birthday-paradox/

    It is extremely lucky for you to have a person in the room with the same birthday date as yours. It is though quite reliably true that in a room of more than 70 people there will be at least one pair of people with a same birthday date.

    Opening the code, and encouraging tinkering with it is how we bring more people in the room.

    @bookwar but what if the backdoor has the same birthday as you?

    What's the protocol when someone emails you asking you to "give up" the domain you've owned for 25 years because "You're only using it for a blog", and they want to use it for a community they want to build, and they don't want to have "JoinFoo" dot com.

    Do nothing? Explain that other TLDs are available? Tell them to "Jog on?"

    @lowqualityfacts that's not correct. It was invented by Gary Glitter, hence the name.
