Re:Let's create a Tree-sitter grammar on Wednesday March 20, 2024 @05:22AM (#39764315)
Thanks for sharing this interesting post!

I'm wondering why isn't there any language agnostic AST, commonly referred to as intermediate representation, and higher level logic such as data flow graph built on Tree-sitter. I mean writing the Grammer is of course something that is mandatory but it seems like programming languages are too much different in the architectural level of Tree-sitter

Nice IE application and evaluation for MITRE ATT&CK

Fix that worked for me: clear all history (all checks are applied). Possibly a lighter version e.g. last 1 day would be enough, although I haven't tried it.
Re:Code Review as a Service on Monday December 20, 2021 @09:34AM (#29625308)
I've greatly improved as a developer by reviewing code, this improved my project and improved team alignment, that's much more valuable than getting inputs from human linter.

Anyone knows whether the agent is publicly available?

Tried it out and it's awesome! I've been working with spreadsheets so far and this takes it to a different level!

I wonder whether this idea could be taken further and rely on existing redirection service. So you won't host anything.

Ask HN: How do you practice social soft skills in real life?

Posted by antonpuz on Saturday August 08, 2020 @05:11PM
from the ask-hn dept.

I currently read "how to make friends and influence people", this and many other soft-skills books/trainings offer concepts and ideas of how one should act in a business/social conversations.I always struggle with applying those concepts in real life, I cannot stop and think about what is the most appropriate reaction for a situation and I quickly forget and get overwhelmed with concepts and...

Ask HN: Who are you – non programmers who participate in open source projects?

Posted by antonpuz on Monday July 06, 2020 @03:13PM
from the ask-hn dept.

On every open source project under the contribution section there is a note that everyone can contribute, and usually it says that even people with no background in programming can help, usually in tasks such as proofreading, documentation, supports, etc.I always wanted to know, who are you non programmers who participate in open source projects? whats your background? how you got into this?...

Interestingly no one suggested YC could actively contacts inventors which just share their work/research with the world and suggest mentoring or drive toward business. It could be seen as a super early lead generator. How common/possible in this scenario?

Interesting points. Do you think YC actively contacts inventors which just share their work/research with the world and suggests mentoring or drives toward business forming?

That sounds like an interesting idea, I assume the move from (1) to (2) involve decrease in salary/prestige and that's also something to consider.
Re:Ask HN: What are books/hacks/actions for becoming an influencer at ... on Wednesday June 24, 2020 @01:17PM (#23630866)
Actually heard about it long time ago, and I definetely search for soft skills books. Will read for sure, thx.

Ask HN: How do you minimize remembrance time when coming back on a task/project?

Posted by antonpuz on Thursday June 18, 2020 @07:12AM
from the ask-hn dept.

As a developer, I work with many systems and services. Each one has special configuration, parameters, flows, inputs, etc.Sometimes, after even few days of not working on a task, I have to spend some time in remembering what to do, how to run stuff, the flows, etc. What are your best practices/methods to reduce this remembrance/recovering time?

Ask HN: Best way to join large code projects

Posted by antonpuz on Thursday August 16, 2018 @04:37AM
from the ask-hn dept.

As a software developer, I sometimes need to join different existing running projects.Most of the time we use Java, where polymorphism, inheritance, and reflection make it a hell to follow (even with a debugger). Most of the code is not documented of course.Approaches and relevant programs would be welcomed
