Crocodile: https://www.crocodile.dev/ Better code reviews for GitHub. It integrates with GitHub to provide a better reviewing and commenting experience for pull requests. Free for …

HEPA filters will filter out particulate but doesn't help with VOCs. For that you need carbon filters.

Thanks for pointing those out! Fixed.

Ah yeah, it only supports Chrome (and Chrome based browsers) and Firefox for now. I've been meaning to add an error message if you use a different browser. No newsletter yet, but y…

The master key is stored as a secret in Kubernetes so if someone compromised it, they would be able to decrypt the source code in the reviews.

I can see how the iterations control can be not obvious. I'll add a docs section that explains it. The two columns of radio buttons represent your selection for the left and right …

I hear you. Crocodile has a couple features that try to address this. 1. More comment states. Comments start as "open". The workflow I had in mind was that once the author addresse…

That's actually a use case I've thought about. When review time came around, one of my past managers would compile statistics on everyone's reviews to see how much they've been par…

If you click the "Comments ->" link in the meta section on the left nav of the review, it will take you to my version of the comments panel. A couple improvements I made: * You can…

You can add just the users you want. See: https://www.crocodile.dev/docs#adding-team-members Crocodile has its own organization and member list. Billing is based on the max number …

Comments should get transferred just fine across rebases and force pushes. If they don't, you can let me know using the feedback form at the top right. Supporting other VCS provide…

> Do you support features like github suggestions which can be committed easily by author? Not right now. The suggestion feature is something I want to add in the future if there's…

Thanks for taking a look! Yeah, not having admin access is definitely a problem. Using a PAT is an interesting idea that I'll have to think about that from a security and liability…

Hi HN! I've been working on a code review app for GitHub called Crocodile for about a year. I used to work at Microsoft where we used a tool called CodeFlow for reviewing code and …

How so? Intel Platform Trust Technology is TPM implemented inside the CPU. Intel Management Engine is a separate thing as far as I can tell.

Pluton seems like the next evolution of the TPM which has been around for many years. Many (most?) modern CPUs have a TPM built into the CPU already (Intel PTT and AMD fTPM) so it'…

I use HTMX + Alpine.js for a project I'm working on. It's been pretty nice and I think my only complaint is that the requests are form encoded instead of JSON. There is a HTMX exte…

When I was shopping for a refrigerator, I went to a local appliance center and talked to a person there. I learned a few things: - In door water dispensers and ice makers are unrel…

Probably a mix of both. Many of the founders of code review tools came from companies that had internal code review tools (Microsoft has CodeFlow, Google has Critique, Facebook has…

I'm also working on a code review app called Crocodile that addresses GitHub's shortcomings. Signups are open and feedback is always appreciated. https://www.crocodile.dev

If anyone is interested, I've been building a code review tool called Crocodile[0] that lets you review GitHub PRs. It has a similar file browser to the left plus floating comments…
