CI Descent: The YAML Chronicles

Why is deploying code like trying to solve a Rubik's cube blindfolded? Ah, the sweet aroma of desperation!

Step into the manic world of Continuous Integration through the eyes of a beleaguered developer struggling against the abyss of CI systems, particularly the notorious GitHub Actions. You'll navigate a labyrinth of frustrating interfaces, unpredictable bugs, and bizarre error messages as you try to maintain sanity while explaining your ordeal to your unsuspecting colleagues. Each choice you make will either lead you closer to debugging nirvana or deeper into the chaotic web of technological despair. Will you submit a PR with a semblance of hope, or will you succumb to the maddening YAML trap? Explore the absurdity of CI processes, collect 'scars' from user error, and even earn your 'CI Druid' title as you learn to manipulate the YAML syntax's dark whims. Your mission? Survive the workday while contemplating the meaning of CI—and find out if Buildkite is really the savior it claims to be.
