For work it's different, but for my side project:

    $ git log --pretty=oneline | wc -l # Total amount of commits.
    1369
    $ git log | grep '^    \.$' | wc -l # Count commits with a message of "."
    902

By now, you saying you're about to implement something yourself is probably an indicator for everyone else that they don't have to do it.

Interesting approach, I'm taking notes!

Something I'm currently doing for my CV application[0] is auto-generating variables for every table/column name in my SQLite DB. As I'm using a dynamically typed language, it's normally easy to mess up with a typo when getting a valuable out of a query result. But when I use the auto-generated variables I'll know I messed up during compile time. That also means my SQLite schema is always my source of truth. Maybe there are better ways to do it, but I find it really useful so far!

(I have to admit I'm kinda jaleous you beat me to the front page within half an hour. What sacrifice did you make to which algorithm deity? I won't tell anyone.)

> I'm exactly the kind of person I suppose this is meant to appeal to.

Quote from the article:

> "Ukrainian cybercommunity! It's time to get involved in the cyber defense of our country," the post read, asking hackers and cybersecurity experts to submit an application via Google docs, listing their specialties, such as malware development, and professional references.

If you're not Ukrainian, I guess the request is not aimed at you. Probably exactly for the reasons you mention. And if you were, the request is to fill in the form, not to go rogue.

Edit: @dang maybe change the title to "[...] calls on its hacker underground [...]" to make this a bit more clear?

I don't see how it's illegal for a president to ask people from his own country to fill in a form to see if they can volunteer.

Can you elaborate?
