This is nice. One a week is kinda low though…maybe 2 would be nice. 😄

Each sandbox provides 8 hours of access from activation, with automatic cleanup afterward. Builders can request one sandbox per week (resetting every Sunday)

Regarding the discussion around the new parallel steps feature in your last office hours video, it was Depot (not blacksmith) that introduced their own parallel support a few weeks before github, but you had to switch to their Depot CI offering. So it's good that it's now available by default in GHA. And for RunsOn, it was the max-parallel attribute that was not supported with the default Flex product, but Fleet now supports it.

I finally bite the bullet and created a chrome extension for github, as I was fed up trying to quickly find failed jobs within large matrix workflows. I think this could be interesting for others!

I am looking for devtest k8s solutions (thread)
• local dev k8s env - preferably 2 worker nodes (used KIND and MiniKube, but these are default 1-node solutions)
• BYIK self hosted - e.g. rke2, microK8s, k3s, Kubespray, kubeadm
• Manging VMs (like opensource free vmware) - e.g. proxmox, oVirt, MicroCloud? (openstack looks too complex)

https://mise.jdx.dev/ looks awesome
