yaroslavyar··on Code Assistant plugin for Sublime Text hits 2,5k installs
Exited to share a plugin integrating OpenAI's GPT-4 with Sublime Text, now at 2,500 installs. No rocket science within, just a convenient and deep sublime text integration of OpenAI models. It's designed for real-time coding assistance, providing suggestions, documentation help, and code refactoring directly within the editor.

Features:

- GPT-4 driven code suggestions.

- ChatGPT mode for conversational programming assistance.

- Light and customizable to fit into your existing workflow seamlessly. Includes proxy support.

The plugin aims to make the coding process more efficient by providing AI-powered support within Sublime Text. Given its organic growth, it seems to resonate with developers.

Would appreciate any feedback or feature requests.

yaroslavyar··on Details emerge of surprise board coup that ousted CEO Sam Altman at OpenAI
Well, I would debate that NeXT OS was a failure as a product, keeping in mind that it is a foundation of all current in macOS and even iOS versions that we have not. But I agree that it was a failure from a business perspective. Although I see it more like Windows phone — too late to market — failure, rather than an out of talented employers failure.

Hey, check the one that I made[1].

It isn’t the code completion assistant like the one you mentioned above, and it probably never will be. I see it more as a perfect coding companion, that is always under your fingertips and relieves you of googling most of the times.

Yet it’s tied with OpenAI, and you have to pay it by yourself, but the former should be changed rather sooner than later.

Bonus: in develop branch there is some-kind-of release candidate that a way more robust that the current release is.

yaroslavyar··on Networking for introverts
I have something to add to this. As for me during the years I’ve mentioned that that anxiety is highly tied with a purpose of a given conservation.

Like, things go more smoothly when I do them for work compared to other purposes. It's like when I'm doing something for work, it's easier, as if I have a real reason to communicate with someone, unlike other times. Although it doesn’t annoy me much, I’m interested to know how widespread this is?

yaroslavyar··on Candle: Torch Replacement in Rust
Maybe I’m a bit ate for the party.

But I hope to get a suggestion for switching to the ext language in the real life. Like I’m quite proficient with swift language, I’m making money with it for years, so I consider my proficient comes not just from general computer science knowledge, but it comes from the getting o know the environment as well. Like I known the sdt lib, I know common caveats with the project, I have a pretty much experience it’s it after all.

And so I’ve tried rust. I mean it’s fantastic, it have awesome tooling, concise syntax and well crafted design, but I barely could write script with it. And I’m seeing clearly that this will lasts for a year or something, and even then I’ll suck at it towards an average senior dev focused on it a way beefier me.

So I really can’t crack it myself, like how do you folks switching to a new lang to get paid for it?

yaroslavyar··on Grammarly will discontinue the Text Editor SDK
I speculate that it was cannibalizig their own product by providing the relatively same quality of service at places where users already get stuck rather to forcing them to migrate to their products.

Like myself, I’m pretty ok with the weary rough grammarly plugin for Sublime Text implementation and therefore I’d tried and deleted their iOS keyboard app, haven’t installed any of their browsers plugins and so on.

yaroslavyar··on Grammarly will discontinue the Text Editor SDK
Despite any political dispute, which is not belongs here, Grammarly obviously denied Russian users because they are actually Ukrainian company.

Worth to mention that on the other hand there was some betrayals within Ukrainians who sold a heavy weapons (e.g. tank engine) to Russians even after the war started, luckily there are just a few of them.

Even this way to open second app from the Spotlight start working only on the iPadOS 13.2.3. It was completely broken in previous releases as bad as dragging apps from the folders in the Dock.
