Show HN: WarpBuild – x86-64 and arm GitHub Action runners for 30% faster builds

Exactly my experience as well: https://x.com/crohr/status/1732442731715113374
In the tests with my GitHub Action [1] that spawns ephemeral runners for any workflow, I found BuildJet bandwidth speed 10 to 20 times slower than machines at AWS.

Show HN: WarpBuild – x86-64 and arm GitHub Action runners for 30% faster builds

Oh neat, I came across BuildJet the other day.
I was trying to cross-compile a side project (https://github.com/marcus-crane/october) for Linux arm64 but trying to do so would throw up some instruction set errors.
I had parted the idea of supporting Linux arm since Github has no runners but I threw in BuildJet and it spat out a working build with no problems!
Given it only needs to run on release, for a small open source project, being charged something like 1 cent per build is surprisingly reasonable compared to having no runner at all / having to spin up a self-hosted runner :)
Kobo October help!!

Hey u/sherlockbean! I don't have a Kobo so I unfortunately can't test this for you, but perhaps this documentation may help? https://github.com/marcus-crane/october Let me know if not!
Kobo 2.0 Integration is Here 📕 🔁

If you send personal documents to your Kobo eReader, one of our users created a small desktop utility called October to get those into Readwise too.
ReadWise just announced on Twitter highlight support - Is this True?

They have a knowledgebase article on the Kobo sync. Seems it only works with content bought from the Kobo store. For side-loaded content they recommend the October app that /u/Byrdlynd mentioned.
You can now export your Kobo highlights/annotations to Readwise
