GitHub Open Sources Their Internal Testing Tool (thenewstack.io)

destinyland writes: Last week GitHub released a new open source tool called Scientist, a Ruby-based library they've been using in-house for several years. "It's the most terrifying moment when you flip the switch," GitHub engineer Jesse Toth told one technology reporter, who notes that the tool is targeted at developers transitioning from a legacy system. "Scientist was born when GitHub engineers needed to rewrite the permissions code — one of the most critical systems in the GitHub application." The tool measures execution duration and other metrics for both test and production code during runtime, and Toth reports that they're now also developing new versions in Node.js, C#, and .Net..

I wonder

How much whitespace is there in the codebase? Is it more than the black characters? Only black characters matter.

Not in Python. In python the WHITE spaces matter. Python is clearly a racist language supported by the white establishment to hold down people of color by making the WHITE spaces matter.

Why is that surprising? White women aren't magically exempt from being racist, just like black men aren't exempt from being sexist.

Right. Remember, only minority-race non-males are magically exempt from being either racist or sexist.
