I've noticed CodeRabbit at times does reviews that are super. It is able to catch bugs that even claude code misses on our Github PRs. Blows my mind at times tbh.
Based on the env vars seems like they're using anthropic, openai, etc. only?
What if a feature (auth page/module) has aspects that could be reused by other major features too, how/where would you place them?
Could you elaborate on "other warning signs"? Maybe others could learn a thing or two.
I did some hands-on contract work last 10 months but the rest was "no work" yeah. So 3+ years of being out of a full-time role.
Software engineer with 10+yrs experience and was on a break for 3+ yrs. I haven't done outbound yet ("applied" to companies). Mostly got referred to companies/startups through folks in my network. Remote work is an important requirement for the time being.
So I spoke to 15 (remote-friendly/first) companies through my network (could've been more if I were up for onsite work), 4 started the interview process (rest had hiring freeze or wanted to prioritize folks that got laid off from FAANG) out of which:
- 1 ghosted me in the last round
- 1 rejected in the last round without any reason/feedback (although I think I did pretty well)
- 1 rejected in the first round because they wanted me to stick to a specific programming language (in their leetcode round) that I am now rusty with
- 1 rejected me in the last round on fair grounds and were decent enough to give feedback. I believe I made mistakes out of being super desperate to land a job.
One thing I noticed (although small sample set) was that the interview processes are very slow (like 1 round per week). This might mean things like companies are in no hurry to hire and they have abundance of candidates applying for the same positions at different "expected CTCs" making it a buyer's market. I am currently interviewing another company who has scheduled the next round to happen after 2 weeks.
Also no inbounds on Linkedin from recruiters. I used to be swamped till like July/August. Probably means there's decent amount of hiring freeze and most of the recruiters are fired?
Tbh, even though I got rejected in a few places, I did not feel too bad because I did not "feel" like they were doing solid engineering work (I ask lots of questions about the tech stack, challenges, culture, etc. in each round).
I've decided to spend a few months upskilling myself till the situation gets better and take the hiring process slow (rather being desperate). Although lucky to be in a position to be able to do so.

Interesting! It works pretty well except that there's no IE support. So the resizing logic included in the library is useful for projects that need IE10+ support.
Almost not possible to control atm with current APIs
I will be implementing click to play and pause (necessary for iOS, etc.). Contributions welcome! :)
The demo works on mobile but ya not entirely responsive in a lot of cases. Will be done soon.
Author here. Wrote an article on the process including certain issues as well - http://codetheory.in/html5-fullscreen-background-video/
I did try to work around slow network speed (can see in the network_speed_optim branch on github but with the current APIs it's a tough problem to crack.
The current implementation is basic but works well. Suggestions welcome so that I can improve it.
I'd love to talk to you in more detail, can I have your email ?
Is it there on Android ?

http://cssdeck.com - lets see what kind of tempting offers you can come up with.
I use SessionBuddy to manage this.

It is indeed quite lovely, I've even written a post on it recently - http://codetheory.in/parse-read-excel-files-xls-xlsx-javascr...

Just keep the .git bare repo outside the document root.

Macbook Pro 15" Retina - good enough to be your primary workstation and I think it is perfectly portable (carry anywhere).
Great UI/UX - nice to see flat ui being adopted by more and more upcoming sites/apps.
- Custom domains would be nice to have.
- Connecting and pulling info from social presence (twitter, linkedin, etc.) would be a great addition (something like coderwall does?).
- Choose the header image/background from some settings area with a list of stock options. Currently it shows some default one that can't be changed.
With these many of us wouldn't mind paying $x/month, yeah :)
I'm using the API provided by the social sites itself. Code - https://github.com/rishabhp/mentions
