For my small team we are not creating our versions, we're just more likely to find a self hostable version and use an LLM to help setup in production. For us it's a middle ground b…

Interested in examples of the types of scripts others collaborators wouldn't be able to use? Like scripts for PR workflows?

I would ask for references for the suicide claims, so others can assess the impact themselves. That's a very serious claim to provide without any proof, especially to a group of pe…

Any other engineers just living life frozen at this point. I am unable to make any life decisions because it seems like I won't have a career in the near future. I am unable to pur…

It's great, I'm in my 30's, two kids, relatively high income family, but can't make any financial decisions because it feels like on a dime we will be living paycheck to paycheck a…

Guess I am scared to program for real since I don't use a "real" language like Rust. What a wild statement to make.

Feels like the most important thing we can do is document it all. Save multiple encrypted copies. There is so many things worth documenting, but don't let others tell 'you' what ha…

Make sure to opt-out before handing your ID over to the agent. They will claim you can no longer opt-out at that point, even before scanning. I had one plead to my wife to go throu…

This right here - I am migrating all of our GHA to use the mise action. Makes keeping the version of Go, linters, formatters etc. for the project so much easier. Haven't added the …

I am a big fan of lunchmoney, built a TUI for it with their API too. https://github.com/Rshep3087/lunchtui

this is just marketing material for github products...

I would love to figure out why I don't see this at my company. People still shipping at the same rate as before, customers bringing up more and more bugs, problems that require pla…

She says it's both. By new stuff, it's mostly one off programs that handle small changes to the way billing or claims are handled. It sounds like they have a library of programs to…

Correct. Updated.

My mother and her husband are COBOL devs for a US state government. She works on the health insurance side for teachers and other state employees. Think claim processing. Lots of b…

Just re-wrote an internal CLI to urfave from custom, but having issues with v3 autocomplete scripts. Might just take the time to switch over to cobra and use this.

from my experience of late, engineers usually toss stack traces into LLMs and ask what the issue is. good error wrapping, engineers grep for one of the first errors and get to the …

Agreed. Using Claude Sonnet 3.5-7 with Aider produces significantly better output than any other models I have tried.

I would guess most people in leadership have no actual clue how they would replace the human in the seat with AI. They are riding the hype that the companies who provide the tools …

My company moved away from Level last year, but for the year we used the product, it was nothing but issues with approvals for purchases.

Consider valves or pressure regulators also! Lots of shared fundamentals with the flow of gases!

Oh interested in the issues with http clients you have? I think they are great to use for being right in the standard library. Only complaint I have is defaults for timeouts and su…

Related to the mastering your IDE, stop reaching for your mouse for every action. The devs that I view as the slowest in my org, it's always watching them drag the mouse around cli…
