• Automating standups using GPT4 and Github APIs

  We think GitReport could replace standup apps like Geekbot. So we're making it into a product. More Git features are coming, like tracking issues and pull requests. Source: 9 months ago

• Agile / Scrum

  We run standups every day, however only 2x of them are a Teams call. The other 3 are run using a tool called Geekbot (Yes scrum masters do hate this) which is basically just a chatbot that sends you the standard standup questions and you can answer whenever you feel like it. This has helped our team heaps due to having such a huge mix of people in our team (Cloud Eng, Database Eng, Software Eng, Network Eng) that... Source: about 1 year ago

• What do you really think of your daily standup?

  My new job recently pulled in https://geekbot.com/ to handle stand ups. Answer a couple basic questions when you login, and they’re all sent to a central channel. I’m not big on that type of communication in general, but it takes maybe 30 seconds each morning. Source: over 1 year ago

• As an IC, is there anything I can do about super cheerful team members using up meetings time?

  We use Geekbot to help standups. The feedback from each dev goes into a channel, then we talk about things that need to be addressed or things we're working on. Source: over 1 year ago

• Scrum Has Failed the Developers

  Back in 2005, I remember working on startups running on Scrum principles. It worked well at the time, we where able to ship, grow the team, and move forward with a nice few-features-per-week cadence, working remotely, on a small team; less than 10. Tt always worked fine, but very slow, as all-dev-things were at the time. I worked with ActiveColab in 2007, Skype 2007, Yammer 2009, Trello 2011, Pivotal Tracker 2013,... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Say "YES" to Protected Bike Lanes on Barton Springs Rd & E 12th St

  If you want to mess around with the street design tool used in this article, you can at streetmix.net. Source: about 1 year ago

• Effort to redesign one of Milwaukee's most dangerous streets, North Avenue, picks up speed

  If you'd like to try your hand at redesigning North Ave. Source: about 1 year ago

• Using AI to create renders of streetscapes? Showing possible transformation of existing places?

  It's not AI backed, but I've found Streetmix to be very useful for that kind of task. There are options for car, bike, and transit lanes. It only gives you a cross section of the street, so you can't model intersections, but it's a great tool for showing how streets could be rearranged. Source: about 1 year ago

• Is there an authoritative "Dutch Road Design Guide" published by Dutch government or a respected NGO?

  Oof that sucks. I just learned about this thing called Street Mix (from Shifter’s YouTube channel), and it’s pretty cool. It’s just a cross section view of a street, but it was fun to play with. https://streetmix.net/ Doesn’t work on phone browsers, btw. Source: over 1 year ago

• A Protected Bike lane design I made for Clark/Lincoln/Wells. (Current design in second image)

  Nice! If you want to figure out actual lane widths/etc, I'd recommend creating some Streetmix cross cuts. It would help give a visualization of the curb to curb space allocation at ground level. Source: over 1 year ago
