  • Welcome to ChangeLog and Friends, a weekly talk show about sleuths and sloths.

  • But first, a big thank you to our partners at fly.io,

  • the platform for devs who just want to ship, build fast, run any code fearlessly at fly.io.

  • Okay, let's talk.

  • Well, friends, I don't know about you, but...

  • Something bothers me about GitHub Actions.

  • I love the fact that it's there.

  • I love the fact that it's so ubiquitous.

  • I love the fact that agents that do my coding for me believe that my CI,

  • CD workflow begins with drafting Tomo files for GitHub Actions.

  • That's great.

  • It's all great until, yes, until your builds start moving like molasses.

  • GitHub Actions is slow.

  • It's just the way it is.

  • That's how it works.

  • I'm sorry.

  • But I'm not sorry because our friends at Namespace, they fix that.

  • Yes, we use namespace.so to do all of our builds so much faster.

  • Namespace is like GitHub Actions, but faster.

  • I mean, like way faster.
