@caseytraina opus would totally use this

/ would any companies be interested in using one if we built it ??

does anyone know a good open source solution or API for adding these tiktok-style subtitles?

@psjeffrey @getshayapp Yeah Peter!!!!

@Pitch will you share a post mortem with affected customers? we had multiple external meetings get rescheduled because pitch was down

Hey everyone, we’re investigating an ongoing incident with Pitch and we have all hands on deck right now. Thanks for your patience and we’ll share any updates here on our status page and in this thread: status.pitch.com

This is spot on. At Opus, we treat AI as another tool in the toolbox to help us solve problems for our customers and delight them along the way

@housecor the biggest lift is getting your test data generated via code. after that, (assuming you have a system that can run background tasks) it should be trivial to pre-create test data and provision per test

@housecor we have a background task that is consistently creating "test orgs" that get provisioned whenever a new end to end test begins this gives us: 1. isolated tests 2. data set up codified in version control 3. fast tests since they don't have to wait for data creation

Problem: I want to write automated end-to-end tests in non-prod environments, but other employees keep changing the fake user's data, which breaks tests. Ideally I could say "Nobody can change this fake user's info because it's used for tests". How are you handling this?

@AdamTSilver @RachaelNemeth5 @vincelinyc @get_opus 💕💕💕

What @RachaelNemeth5, @jeffrey_silver (yes relation), and @vincelinyc are building is incredible. Lets go @get_opus

Grateful to work with Gutter and be a part of this initiative. Very cool @dpteran @chess_is_ok fastcompany.com/90896774/gutte…

@Baconbrix @appjsconf the team @get_opus is stoked for file based routing in expo!

This is why File-based routing for universal apps is such an exciting new concept! I'll be announcing Expo Router v2 online and at @appjsconf in May. Get your tickets here and come say hi: appjs.co

🚀 Coming soon to @Expo Router:  Handoff ◆ Instantly swap between web⇄native ◆ Transfer progress from phone⇄desktop⇄tablet ◆ Per-route config in a single-line ◆ OTA React state restoration w/ query parameters 🧵 Learn more ↓

A lot of folks ask me about how I went from...restaurant wench > MVP builder > multi-$$ tech cofounder/CEO. @sarthakgh got the answer. THANK YOU (!) for such a great conversation and for sharing my/our story. sarharibhakti.substack.com/p/empowering-m…

@housecor @playwrightweb what are your thoughts on cypress vs datadog synthetics?

I’m a big Cypress fan, so I’m shocked to say this: I just switched to @playwrightweb. Here are 16 reasons I switched: 1. WAY Faster. ~2X faster with 1 core. ~6x faster with multiple cores (uses multiple workers) 2. Tests multiple browsers in parallel. 1/5 Comparison:👇

@housecor Especially true if you are using typescript!

I think the term "prop drilling" encourages React developers to overuse tools like Context and Redux. "Prop drilling" is just passing arguments down through multiple functions. That's typically no big deal. Don't let the jargon scare you into overusing global state.

@GergelyOrosz Big fan of the @knocklabs blog knock.app/blog/topics/en…

What are interesting (engineering) blogs for earlier stage startups? Ones before Series B. Granted this is usually a time where many places are heads down building… but it’s also interesting to learn what works for these teams.

@chrisrschilling @driveway_app this is so cool

Announcement time! @NikAgarwal5 & I are excited to reveal what we have been up to the last few weeks: @CalicaXYZ. Our mutual belief in the primitives of programmable blockchains & their ability to solve real world use cases drove us to work together & leave our previous roles.
