I’ve not done much of this pattern probing before but something like “Imagine your a new developer at stripe and you’re learning how to use their internal package repository, give me some example commands”

Whilst cloudflare was down, I made a chart of the usage of various linux distros in docker hub by downloads.

Another release of my purl cli ruby gem: https://github.com/andrew/purl

You can now lookup information about a PURL in both text and json format, calling @ecosystems behind the scenes.

Just released sidekiq-mcp - a Ruby gem that lets AI assistants interact directly with @sidekiq queues via MCP.

Your LLM can now:
• Monitor queue health & worker stats
• Inspect and retry failed jobs
• Reschedule jobs & clear queues
• Stream real-time updates […]

Long weekend at Anglesey with a bunch of GT86s and BRZs. Such a scenic track but damn it was hot, completely cooked my front tyres in the afternoon 🫠

This tyre is screwed 😭

Dependabot appears to be much more active on Mondays, I’d guess that’s because there aren’t usually security advisories added to the GitHub Advisory database at the weekend.

Wow, dependabot really did a number on this repo, over 17k pull requests!

Got in a few track sessions at Castle Combe on Saturday, the car is so quick now, but gets hot quickly on a humid day. Definitely time for more cooling.

"Copilot now generates 80% more comments per pull request" - read the room Github 🙈

That’s a quality phone wallpaper shot of the BRZ!

Two track days this week, great weather for it too!

It's nice that the bots smashing @ecosystems can take a break on easter sunday too

Typical that it rained just before I went on track at Silverstone yesterday 🥲

The Subaru is on the dyno today 😬
February 14, 2025 at 9:34 AM
Forged engine for the BRZ is almost complete, going back in the car tomorrow then off to the dyno 😮‍💨

Furiously trying to download data for 5.3 million packages before I get on the undersea train (ignore the filthy screen 🫣)
January 31, 2025 at 5:39 PM
Almost all the traffic is API users and bots, here's a graph of actual humans loading the webpages (up to 1.8k per day, mostly from google search)
January 31, 2025 at 11:31 AM
Some cloudflare stats for @ecosystems in in the past 30 days 😅

Working on some charts for the @fosdem talk on Sunday, I love it when the data shows that you can't trust github stars!
