Clawdbot finally clicked for me this week. I was renting out an apartment and I had it connect to FB messenger, do the initial screening messages and then schedule times for viewings in my calendar. I was approving it's draft messages but starting giving it some automatic responses as well. Overall it did 9/10 on this task with a couple cases where it got confused. This is just scratching the surface but this was something that was very valuable for me and saved me several hours of time.

The typescript-lsp (and others?) is missing a critical part of LSPs whcih is the diagnostics for real-time errors and warnings. So you still need to run a linter, tsc, etc. to generate those sadly.

Seems like it could be useful for e2e testing of command line applications

Hello! I'm Jordan, a senior engineer/software consultant/fCTO with over 20 years of experience in full-stack web and hybrid mobile app development. I take pride in writing clean code, refactoring, writing tests, and ensuring that everything runs smoothly in the CI environment. Throughout my career, I have established and enforced coding standards across projects, and I've provided valuable feedback and mentoring to the developers I've managed.

As a trained Agile Scrum Master, I can seamlessly integrate into Agile team environments and contribute effectively from day one. Whether it's launching green field projects or revamping large codebases with minimal understanding, I am adaptable and driven to succeed.

Being a US/Canadian Dual Citizen, I am currently living in Boise, ID, but I am open to remote opportunities. My expertise makes me an ideal candidate for a Software Developer or Team Lead role. If you would like to know more about my qualifications, feel free to reach out to me. I look forward to connecting with you!

Just keep in mind some kids might be playing these games. So while it might be satisfying to stick it to the sites that are stealing your code, you might traumatize a child.

Good point, one could measure (est.) years lost rather than lives lost as a way to quantify that.

when doing migrations/conversions I always write a script in dry-run mode first. I exhaustively check the results to make sure they are expected. Then try to do a real conversion/transfer of only the 1st file and make sure that worked. Then do a couple more. Etc. Only then do I feel confident to do the whole thing.
