right now it's just a list of videos I watched on my own time and think was very good quality. The site definitely needs some more automation similar to what you suggested but its still needs to be moderated. I don't want to just link to every video people put on theirs channels.


My idea for recruiters was special website with referral link where they could fill out all information I was interested in (the fields was required in order to submit the form) and big red information that stated: "If your offer will be interesting I will contact back on linkedin".

In addition I made small control question, for example: "Whats the first letter on my LinkedIn description?".

That way I know I don't talk with a bot and they really read my profile.


Very similar to: https://www.ventusky.com


I was just going to say that. Because I found that on HN. I had also found this here https://earth.nullschool.net/#current/wind/surface/level/ (before ventusky)


Speed of test-runners is important, but in my opinion can't be top priority. Far more important is better flexibility of writing tests and bigger asserting tools. Thanks to that, you can write more test and coverage more code.


I agree. We should consider several criterias. The speed becomes more important for huge number of tests when execution time starts to annoy developers.


There is good tool for making diagrams (so state machines as well) called mermaid[1], just by writing simple readable text.

I wanted to like Mermaid, then I realized it was just a neutered version of GraphViz. I had wanted to write a Mermaid-to-Graphviz compiler but never got around to it.

It produces pretty ugly graphs that can't be exported to any other format. Meanwhile just about ever graph manipulation program (e.g. Gephi) can handle GraphViz DOT format.


I didn't know GraphViz. I have to try it. DOT language looks very similar to Mermaid.

It was too hard to make that compiler or you have encountered another problem?


I didn't even know what BNF was when I had the idea ;)

It's still on my list of short projects. I have a lot of learning to do, knowing nothing about writing parsers and such. Yes, I know I could probably hack it together with a bunch of garbage Python. But that just does not sound fun to write, let alone maintain.


Apparently some people also wanted graphviz syntax: https://github.com/knsv/mermaid/issues/5

I also find another project called Viz.js[1]. It's graphviz in javascript. Looks promising. It's hard to choose between this two. On the one hand is very simple syntax, and on the other hand more flexibility.

PlantUML is a text based solution, too. I use it write in the Atom IDE.
