@foone having been looking for SWEng work twice this year (eyeroll), I have come to the conclusion that the major job sites are thoroughly enshittified, and are optimizing for engagement in direct opposition to being useful for actually finding jobs.

@DRMacIver @cfbolz Wild guess: the iteration doesn't consult `__len__`, but just keeps retrieving incremental indexes waiting for one to raise an exception.UPDATE: my language is sloppy, but you get what I'm arm-waving about.

@Stomata I saw a thread yesterday saying this has happened a couple of times before, speculating that the owner blows away and recreates the repo if they accidentally commit something potentially sensitive to it. I'll try to find a link in case there are updates... 🤞
