GitHub actions is crazy convenient, but it's a huge pain to run a copy locally. I try not to depend on it too much, but sometimes it is simplest to just go refill my coffee while it figures itself out.

(And it's almost never down. This week was unusual, to me.)

I still use github for personal projects but have never looked into what the Actions do, since github serves my minimal needs as-is. But it also did when I was working. I would think if people find that depending on certain features ultimately disrupts their work, the smart thing would be not to use those features.

Yes. That would be wiser. But it would also mean setting up a Jenkins server.

No problem. Jenkiins! Get your ass in here!
