What are good alternatives to GitHub for private repos + actions? I'm considering moving my company off of it because of reliablity issues.

Having a layer of parallelisation on top of good old sequential code seems like a very neat idea. It resolves headaches of learning how to run code in parallel in languages that aren’t necessarily my primary language (e.g. short, one-off scripts). Thanks for sharing!!

I think patterns and best practices are still yet to be figured out. I believe you can create caller in a server component and it should work (https://trpc.io/docs/server/server-side-calls#create-caller), but the pages router appears to be a battle-tested solution.

I've used tRPC and Next.js for a couple of personal projects and it's been a great experience. Hard to beat on iteration speed, especially when used with a pre-configured template like Create T3 App: https://create.t3.gg/.

No worries at all! I agree that there's probably lots of people blindly copying and running code from LLMs without any reflection. Just like it often happened with StackOverflow snippets before ChatGPT (to the point it became a meme). I'm definitely not one of them.

Author here. My intention was to show that you can use it to help you get going quickly for a very practical, one-off, and self-contained use cases. As I mentioned in other comments already, I did not trust it blindly and did not share any sensitive data with it. Definitely not an ad!

Really interesting, thanks for sharing!

I'd estimate it that it saved me a couple of hours tops. They were simple, self-contained scripts with at most 150 LOC.

100% agreed, this is how I always treat it and working on the problem from the article was not an exception from this rule. I share minimum input, and never trust the output blindly.
It gets 50-60% of work done, and a really good basis for me to work on it. Especially when working with one-off, end-to-end relatively short scripts.

Author here. GPT only got minimal context it needed to run the prompt. No customer data, no IDs, definitely no API keys were passed as a prompt.

Article author here. Really valuable stuff, thanks for sharing!
Do you handle this for Mastercard in any way? I've heard of Ethoca (they are really good at SEO), it seems quite similar to Verifi.

Article author here. I carefully reviewed and tested the ChatGPT scripts before executing them. It helped me save a lot of time manually writing these scripts!
I wouldn't say I lack technical expertise in this area, I'm just trying to use my time as efficiently as possible.
