• Show HN: An open-source alternative to Bitly

  Cool. Checking it out. For those looking for more options, Dub[1] is a matured open-source[2] link shortener with Analytics. For not-so-large volumes of links, say for friends-family, and the occasional public links, you can run something off Github Pages[3] with their built-in Jekyll + Redirect-From Plugin[4]. If you do not want to, you do not even need to have the code run locally, just edit on Github. I run one... - Source: Hacker News / about 11 hours ago

• A refresher on GitHub Pages

  I moved my blog from WordPress to GitLab Pages in... 2016. I'm happy with the solution. However, I used GitHub Pages when I was teaching for both the courses and the exercises, e.g., Java EE. At the time, there was no GitHub Actions: I used Travis CI to build and deploy. - Source: dev.to / 14 days ago

Here's the response I got: https://imgur.com/a/NyHBCe2 (https://programming-helper.com/ , https://explain.dev/ , https://tldrdev.ai/ , https://code-mentor.ai/) In addition to the categorization and summary (driven by GPT-4), it takes into account performance metrics of the tool (visits,...

• Why don't there seem to be any courses based around the idea of maintaining and extending legacy software?

  Agree with so many of the comments here. I believe the way to equip folks to be productive with legacy code is build tools that replicate the goodness of an experienced engineer while on the job. Supplement the help available and ensure the person onboarding is benefitting from the questions that were asked by new folks before them. I started building the tool here: explain.dev While courses could help you feel... Source: over 1 year ago
