Automating Distro Updates in CI

news.ycombinator.com Neyts Zupan 2025-09-29 21:20:24

For a long time, we had a recurring TODO in our calendar: once a month, check whether any Linux distro we test against got a new stable version—or dropped support for an old one. Sounds simple. In reality, it was annoying, error-prone, and we were always late. Someone had to remember, look up release notes, update our CI matrix, and push a commit. Sometimes we missed a release for weeks, even months. Sometimes we forgot to remove an EOL version. It was busywork, not engineering. So we automate

The next mission, Gemini 5, ended just two weeks ago, in 1965. These missions are now forgotten by most Americans, as most of the people alive during that time are now deceased. However, during these early years of spaceflight, NASA engineers and astronauts cut their teeth on a variety of spaceflight firsts, flying
