Uber safety team promptly called back about 20 hours later. They said I shouldn't drive a cab because that's a safety issue. And that they'll educate the driver whatever that means and might terminate the driver if there's recurrence.

It's always fun when someone else on the interwebs makes a case for why your business is awesome and needs to exist.
I'm surprised no one has built a niche business around self-hosted GitHub Actions runners. Getting a self-hosted machine is pennies on the dollar compared to the GH pricing and I'd pay a premium to have it turnkey. Am I missing an obvious reason why this doesn't seem to exist?

Terraform has become a standard, distributed and remixed by 1000s of tools. Now they're all interwoven with BSL and no one knows what that really means
