@ryancarson @useblacksmith @theo glad you’re onboard, Ryan! ping me if you need anything (and check out Codesmith 🔨)

God damn. Just cut our builds from 6 min -> 2 min with one line of code. Thank you @useblacksmith Not being paid to say this. Now that I'm shipping ~55 PRs/day, this saves us SO much time. (and thx @theo for the heads up)

@CherryJimbo @useblacksmith really appreciated all your Workers feedback over the years :) if you have blacksmith feedback, hit me up! and please check out Codesmith!

We've been experimenting with all kind of exotic caching solutions, different containers, etc. to make our builds + testing suites faster in GitHub Actions. Then a couple weeks ago we just tried @useblacksmith and it was like 3-4x faster with zero effort. I think I'm sold.

@cc_usage @useblacksmith very excited to sponsor you all!

Our next big sponsor is @useblacksmith!!! Blacksmith provides a CI/CD pipeline with massive performance. Recently, we migrated ccusage from TypeScript to Rust & Nix, so all jobs slowed down. Thanks to Blacksmith, our CI is now way faster! Can't wait to ship things fast!

@richiemcilroy @Vishal_anton16 @cap @richiemcilroy say more :) perhaps we can help out here

@Vishal_anton16 @cap the Windows code signing provider we use is only compatible with a very specific runner currently - maybe in the future!

BlackBar 0.2.0 is live for @useblacksmith 📈 24h vCPU + workflow graphs 🔔 opt-in status/job notifications 🧰 richer Blacksmith job rows 🟢 compact status badge Tiny menu bar, less CI guesswork. black.bar

@ryoppippi @useblacksmith hey @ryoppippi shoot me a DM :)

hey @useblacksmith , you guys are awesome! could you support ccusage? we are migrating into rust

@pkyanam @useblacksmith @aayush_shah15 you should be good now, sorry about that!

@useblacksmith @aayush_shah15 @wegmckeon for visibility

my god github runners are so slow i now see the value in @useblacksmith and will be working to integrate it into my workflows asap

Built BlackBar, a menubar for @useblacksmith black.bar

@athasdev @useblacksmith looking into this - mind dming me your org as you typed it in here?

@useblacksmith the oss form

3.7M jobs and $511K in compute, nbd

@theo @steipete @useblacksmith "this ci tool n̶o̶b̶o̶d̶y̶ everybody uses"

@steipete @useblacksmith 3.7 MILLION jobs??? This would be like $2m on GitHub actions

Cached. Loaded. Shipping soon.

@steipete @useblacksmith Macos runners? My ios test suite takes like 15 mins on github actions it's giving me gray hairs

Been so CPU-constrained on OpenClaw work. Switched local tests running to @useblacksmith and IT IS SO GOOD. codex can literally spin up to 32vCPU instances and rip through our test suite. docs.blacksmith.sh/blacksmith-tes…

the coolest companies build on @useblacksmith i stg

@Zortosdev @useblacksmith that's month to date usage - you can scroll for a per-minute breakdown. some changes coming here soon for clarity. dropped you an extra 3k mins for this months so you don't run out 💛💛

hi @useblacksmith how can i see how much free usage i have left? i cant see it shows no unpaid invoices and thats it. im using for my project OpenNOW

@mahkellz and if we’re ever not a great product now you have my @

NB: I've never used blacksmith but I've seen their reviews and what they're capable of hence why I say it's a great product,but takes my words with a grain of salt.

I just watched @theo's video on mythos and I realised that Theo doesn't even try convincing his viewers to use @useblacksmith. And one would assume it's because theo doesn't like doing ads ( which may be true ) but the biggest part of it is because of how great a blacksmith is.

@MendyOK @zacharykimball @github @useblacksmith 🔜🔜🔜

@zacharykimball @github @useblacksmith @useblacksmith non org users wen!?

Switched from @github runners to @useblacksmith almost 2 months ago, now have the first full month of data. No joke: our CI run time is down 75% (faster) and cost is down 92% (cheaper). Unbelievable!

@zacharykimball @github @useblacksmith 💛 lots more to come. What would you want to see us build next?

@7N7 @theo we’ll be lifting this restriction in the next few weeks, apologies 🙏

@theo 🙃 im not making an org so my electron builds get done faster

Excited to announce our second platinum tier sponsor, Blacksmith! If you write code, you know GitHub CI kind of sucks. It's slow, hard to debug, and it gets really expensive at scale. Blacksmith solved all of this, speeding up my builds by over 3x at 1/6th the cost. It's literally 1 line of code to try it. Trust me on this one.
