Is this irony? Cause there’s no way anyone believes these “we want to make the world a better place” cliches anymore lol

all "hackers" be vibe coding b2b saas these days

the meaning of this word has diluted so much

lol how edgy of you

this smells like an ai-generated comment so much

It exists already. Wdym?

Fortunately, U.S. startups never bullshit and posture to get VC money, and in the rare cases they do, it’s not posted to HN. Right?

Wow, this is surprising.

I’m happy for the founders, they’re great folks. I contributed to CirrusCI a bit in the past and it was a great experience. I even advocated for Cirrus in a couple of my last $DAYJOBs (with varied success). Congrats Fedor!

I’m very sad they’re shutting down, though. IMHO CirrusCI was very close to a perfect CI system (I wrote a blogpost about it [0]). I’ll now have to find something to replace it with in my personal projects. I guess I’ll run their cirrus-cli in GitHub Actions for a while. But GitHub Actions is really poor. I heard some good things about Buildkite.

More like employees number 32,463 and 32,464 - they’re two people from what I seen on GitHub over the years. (Incredibly strong two people)

The free Kotlin Multiplatorm plugin provides 1st class Swift support in IntelliJ IDEA. It’s heavily based on old AppCode codebase.

Maybe he should have clarified “we (with a spine and moral compass) in America”. Obviously he didn’t mean leeches like you.

Ukraine has a democratically elected government and president who isn’t a dictator.

(I’m not trying to justify US action in Venezuela here. Just answering your question)

Please, please. I hope they pull out ASAP!

This. The round & slimy language is what big corps do. I don't like how this post is written – but what really matters here is that they are doing a good job moving away from GitHub. I hope more OSS does this.

It is funny, go complain on reddit

weirdest take on code formatting I've ever read

imho uniformity of what the code looks like > some single person's opinion

it's so satisfying to me when I just run "gofmt" and know the thing is formatted well.

The War on General Computation continues, and we’re losing.

This sounds like a bug – I'd appreciate it if you could share an example of such behavior.

[I work at JetBrains]

lmfao

You can install the "Android" and "Android Design Tools" plugin in IntelliJ IDEA – it's basically everything that Android Studio is.

But truth be told, these plugins always lag ~1 release behind Android Studio.

Russian soldiers participating in the invasion of Ukraine. FTFY.

CLion (and other JetBrains IDEs for that matter) doesn’t send any of your code to AI in the Cloud (unless you use sth like AI Assistant yourself, of course)

+1!

I had little expectations toward that movie (I think it was just randomly airing on the TV and I watched it), but was very pleasantly surprised.

I'm a fan of Clancy's books (and movies based on them), and The Wolf's Call could easily be one of them.

I’m writing an interpreter for the Starlark language in pure Kotlin (no JVM dependencies).

I had this idea in mind for some time already, it began with me wanting to build a simple programming language (and learn in the process) and interest in Bazel. I got started about a month ago by going through the Crafting Interpreters book by Bob Nystrom (it’s crazy good), but now Im straying further and further away from it.

Overall I find the project a great mixture of fun and challenging.

It’s a private repo for now because it’s in a pretty rough state, and is still missing a lot of stuff, but I will release as OSS at some point. That said if someone would like it could be fun:)

Hahah, love it, thanks!

I’m a fan of Curb Your Enthusiasm but didn’t get to this episode yet.

It’s interesting seeing the progress of technology, with Larry using feature phones in the first few seasons.

bro you’re so out of touch with reality

What? Bullying who?

Freeform also works incredibly bad on my iPad (sluggish, unstable, crashing). It’s definitely a software issue. I never had such performance issues with Notability.

But yes. The overall decline in Apple’s software quality is evident and sad.

the fact that it's open-source and nicely structured internally lets you "peel off" the topmost YAML layer and just use the underlying components to interact with the mobile device, using your JVM-compatible language of choice.

I recently made a lol-project at a hackathon exactly that way: https://devpost.com/software/hearthack

What is stopping adoption of such projects?

In my little experience, many big companies are heavily invested in Appium, which was the only viable solution x years ago, and keep clinging on to that.

Also Maestro may not be flexible/hackable enough for some of the things they do with Appium. But in the long term I think everyone would benefit if Maestro became the go-to UI testing tool, the way Docker became the go-to tool for containerization.

The quality of most mobile apps sucks so not sure why mobile testing is not mainstream?

I think it's actually: mobile testing is not mainstream, so most mobile apps suck, haha.

btw, I think that most mobile apps actually make no sense at all (many are just stupid CRUDs), and should be web apps. But that'd be a whole different rant :)

Oh Okay this is cool, I thought it's not possible (it's not mentioned at your frontpage at all).

How do your AI-features work when running tests locally using yout SDK? Do I need to provide my own token to some LLM provider?
