Third one should be called "A Bot"

[–] navi@lemmy.tespia.org 9 points 1 week ago

100%

My GitHub profile looked like that for a while when I was using my own PAT for a CI step that did repo syncing.

Now a bot account gets all the credit. :(

don't post pictures of my face online, that's rude >:(

In all seriousness I wonder why I always realize I could have explained myself better/left something out/omg formatting error better fix it/holy shit typo after the initial commit, and have like 4 different ones (or a bunch of rebases in an effort to keep the repo clean of this crap) fixing it, instead of pushing just a correct and complete readme from the beginning.

This is also why most of my Lemmy comments have edits. Not some weird sketchy crap editing things in to make others look bad or totally change my point after getting refuted, but just… oops typo or I could reword that to be more understandable or I meant to say this and totally forgot about it.

Look at this amateur, using a mouse to commit. I have a macro defined just to commit and push as a background job so that I can start editing the README again ASAP.

[–] tribut@infosec.pub 3 points 1 week ago

The worst part? "readme updates" instead of "update readme".

the "does most commits to private repositories" user

[–] eager_eagle@lemmy.world 18 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

you can configure github to paint private repo commits in the tiles, that's what I do, so it almost looks like #3, but less homogeneous.

[–] mesamunefire@lemmy.world 17 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Kinda, theres a way orgs can now hide the activity. For example, my github:

and then when im logged in:

Im in multiple orgs but the main one is protected.

But GH commit tiles are a silly metric anyways.

I’m the “makes commits to Azure DevOps because that’s what his company uses” user, so mine looks a lot like number 4.

The “my company works with bitbucket or gitlab”.

I’m the release manager for my company. I’d have so many fucking contributions 😅

Famous painter, best known for abstract paintings, see https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piet_Mondrian , section Life > Paris

[–] tetris11@lemmy.ml 44 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Ah rectangle dude. Invented the triangle and revolutionised art from the 1930s onwards until Picasso made minecraft

[–] state_electrician@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

There's also a programming language named after him: https://dangermouse.net/esoteric/piet.html

[–] driving_crooner@lemmy.eco.br 3 points 1 week ago

I saw an exposition of him and is pretty cool seeing him reaching and exploring until finding out that style.

An abstract painter whose thing was overlaid rectangles in prime colors.

[–] Karyoplasma@discuss.tchncs.de 48 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I'm number 4, but instead of looking for a job, the pattern is subject to my crippling depression. Most of the time I simply feel that it's pointless to work on my projects, so I don't :(

[–] einkorn@feddit.org 16 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I see the point in my projects yet I am frustrated and depressed by my perceived lack of progress.

Want to start a project and procrastinate on it together?

[–] smee@poeng.link 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I don't see the point of anything anymore, you folks need a community manager?

[–] PlutoVolcano@lemm.ee 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I’ve made up more names for new projects than what I have actually written code for. Yall looking for a product owner?

Wheres the fucker who made loss in his commits

[–] elvith@feddit.org 17 points 1 week ago

git commit -m ~~.:|:;~~

[–] fubarx@lemmy.world 24 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The Weekender is also anyone working professionally. You can't stick any of your real work on public github.

[–] southernbrewer@lemmy.world 14 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Github has an option to show private commits in these graphs though

[–] Minizarbi@jlai.lu 9 points 1 week ago

Yup, but you might have another GitHub account!

#3 is my script that converts one particular RSS feed to .ical format, and pushes it to a repo, because setting up a website for one silly script was overkill.

[–] jol@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

#3 is actually impossible because the color gradient is relative and dynamic, is it not?

[–] Ironfacebuster@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (3 children)

hello I also have big text

Needs one that's like #4 from January to September, labelled: "Fuck Github and anything else owned my Microsoft".

My personal is shit, my work account though is lit like a Christmas tree but I can't use that on an application and contrary to popular belief, I don't always feel like spending all night coding after spending all day coding

[–] KindaABigDyl@programming.dev 5 points 1 week ago

People who work at Apple: Completely Blank

Wish it would include commits of our closed Gitlab instance on Github, then I wouldn’t be #4
