You can add activesupport (I think that’s it) to get it if you don’t want to use all of rails.

My company is experimenting with using LLMs for yearly reviews and it works just like this. We feed in some bullet points of accomplishments and hope the LLM doesn’t fuck it up. Then the manager gets a condensed version down from the summaries.

I was a vocal hater of Jira till I switched to a company that rolled their own ticketing system. Now I love Jira.

I remember years ago when React was the savior of web apps Swooping in engineers from the clutches of JQuery and AngularJS (not to be confused with Angular 2+). Components we’re gonna make things simpler than the mess of JS files and global state.

Complex web apps are hard.

Waterfall is missing the part where the customer realizes they didn’t actually want to go to Mars they just wanted to view it out of a telescope.

But now they can only travel to Mars and the telescope is out of the budget because you spent so much money on the rocket

10 years ago it was copy/pasting from stack overflow

Yeah I don’t think I’ve ever heard that term before in my life and I’ve been doing this for a while.

And I don’t think I ever wanna hear it again.
