Encouraged by the comments here, I tried a few prompts for it to do something useful for our company. Most failed, but it's apparently great at improving our documentation. Here's the prompt and the result as an example: > Can

I use the 2021-02-26 format for every place that asks for a date without a clear format. All legal contracts, forms, email etc, across US and Europe. Never got any trouble for it - it seems people readily understand the format even if they

I've just tested their lgtm.com on our codebase: 1) identified str.replace('[ABC]+', '') correctly as a bug (looks like a regex but is string literal) 2) identified various unnecessary code that TypeScript overlooke

Scala and Clojure are a bit of a leap for a Java dev, which may come with some cost. I don't get that feeling with Kotlin - you can kind of slip into it, it's a very easy transition, and then you don't want to go back. Sure,

Seconding TypeScript. If you are a js dev looking to pick up something new, just rename a .js file to .ts, open it in vscode, watch the magic. It will, I think, make you a better js dev.

Take a look at Kotlin. We are building our enterprise products with it. You get all the benefits of Java (stability, maturity) without the bad parts (boilerplate, boredom). We just hired a Kotlin person (really a Java guy who refreshed his

We run in-browser end to end tests for our browser extension. There were several reasons for flakiness: * Puppeteer (browser automation) bugs or improper use. Certain sequence of events could deadlock it, causing timeouts relatively rarely.

I built https://flowcrypt.com solo for the first two years. I would have preferred a partner, but nobody committed. Today 3+ years later it's a three person team. Maybe in another year I can have reasonable work life balanc

FlowCrypt dev here. You're free to get the source code from https://github.com/FlowCrypt and load the extension that way. If you plan to also edit the code, just cross-check to stay within the bounds bounds of https:&

Take a look at https://cryptup.org (disclaimer - my project). Encryption can be made easy. RFC4880 may be ugly. Yet great design can still turn it into a good user experience. I don't think anyone considers TCP/IP pret

It is indeed a pain. That's why I made https://cryptup.org/ For some of my users, using Gmail itself is already challenging. Yet they are sending around PGP encrypted messages, attachments, etc. Even my mom is using th
