We get, uh, ballotpedia.org. Sometimes with no media coverage of anything relating to a constitutional change at all for then to link to. There does tend to be a lot less going on at elections because we don't allow initiatives and referenda for the most part IIUC.

Especially in Atlanta, yup. (One of the very few blue blocs in the state.)

Of course, free GitLab is now doing a deploy, so nothing works. I guess Friday night would kind of make sense for that – if you're going to do a 10 years ago, maintenance window kind of update. And your dev team likes pager duty.

(We ran on Wed-Tues weeks for a long time to encourage mid-week deploys as the end of the iteration. More than three full, normal workdays to resolve anything that goes wrong, without crazy heroics.)

I'm always amazed at states that actually tell their electorate there's an election coming up, never mind those that actually provide significant information. I don't even get so much as a postcard in Georgia.

Probably because it's too common to write "take bus #123" and such. Noisy and accidental rather than intentional. They do accept NYSE identifiers though and let you click those IIRC, stuff like $APPL.

I didn't notice any DNS issues all day. Email and 10C and ADN and Slack and all my other work stuff working fine.

Corporate GitLab was a bit wonky, but it's done that on other days on its own - I know it can get overloaded when working with large changesets till it times out, for one thing, and I bet that can time out operations of other users.

29 issues I know of left to do. 5 workdays. 2 other iOS devs and me. Then we draw a "dev complete" line in the sand and keep working. shrugs at weird arbitrary corporate milestones

@kdfrawg I have. Spellcheck still works and such, just no more machine second-guessing me and actively rewriting my text.

I checked. Per Project docs [help.github.com], a project is a sticky note board of ordered columns containing issues, PRs (another flavor of issue), and notes (lightweight "pre-issues" new to projects IIUC). You can use them for whatever.

Assuming I'm right, projects cut vertically while milestones horizontally in time. You might keep improving how blurb editing and composition works version after version. The work you do on that project and others targeted at a certain release gets grouped into a milestone. So time vs topic, I guess.
