New top story on Hacker News: Show HN: Natural Language Git (Gitgpt)

Show HN: Natural Language Git (Gitgpt)
7 by OddMerlin | 6 comments on Hacker News.
Hey folks, Here's a quick and dirty tool to use natural language to get git to do what you want. Example: $gitgpt create a new branch called feature/test add all the files and commit with msg creating feature test then push to origin I haven't put it through the wringer yet, however it's worked well with some pretty straight forward day to day git usage.

New top story on Hacker News: Show HN: Noya – A new kind of design tool

Show HN: Noya – A new kind of design tool
10 by dabbott | 0 comments on Hacker News.
Hi HN. I've been working on a new browser-based design tool that's ready for you to try. The idea is you work on your design in low fidelity wireframes, while still getting a high fidelity output that you can share or use as a reference for your implementation. The way it works is by mapping low fidelity blocks you draw into high fidelity design system & React components. I spent several years working on design tools at companies like Airbnb, and I think the ideas behind many of the tools we built for designing at scale could really help startups and small teams as well. I would love any feedback you have! PS: Most of Noya is open source at https://ift.tt/JCoGUrn

Google searches = used for training AI models Apple notes = private Google docs = ? Siri requests = used for training models Emails you send in gmail = ? I'm seeking to understand what things people might think are private, because they're not posted on the open web, but where they're used for training AI models.

New top story on Hacker News: Show HN: SQRL – Anti-spam rules language Twitter acquired in 2018, open-sourced

Show HN: SQRL – Anti-spam rules language Twitter acquired in 2018, open-sourced
28 by qixxiq | 4 comments on Hacker News.
Hey all, author here! This is a demo of the rules engine we built to fight spam/abuse on the internet. It was built based on learnings from Facebook & Google, while trying to make a language that makes it simple for anti-spam analysts to quickly (and safely) deploy rules to production. Unfortunately it looks like the Twitter event feed is temporarily down (they're blocking it, possibly as part of shutting down the API on Thursday). I have a cache of events from a little earlier that I'm going to try play through the stream.

New top story on Hacker News: Ask HN: Recruiters have stopped contacting me? What could have happened?

Ask HN: Recruiters have stopped contacting me? What could have happened?
8 by the_only_law | 5 comments on Hacker News.
So I lost my job back last year. I didn’t feel like I immediately needed a new job and I’ve never particularly had difficulty finding one so I figured this time I’d bide my time and see if I could get a job I actually wanted as opposed to just whoever offered a big number that looked good. Usually, like most devs, I imagine, I get a number of recruiters flooding into my LinkedIn account, particularly if I have my account set to show I’m open to new jobs. At first, this seemed to be the case, but I was being very selective with who’d I’d talk to. If a recruiter wanted me to jump through hoops, or refused to give me any information about the role/company/etc. they were hiring for id just ignore them. Then around mid-December I just stopped getting any contact from recruiters. Nothing about my LinkedIn profile had changed so I figured people must just be in break for the holidays, and so I decided to just sit around for a while. But it’s February now and I haven’t had a single recruiter reach out to me since December 16th and I have no idea why. Someone suggested reset and reapply the “looking for jobs” status on my account, but that didn’t seem to work. There’s only a couple things I can thing of offhand. 1) Remote-status. I’ve read that looking for remote right now might be much more difficult with the flood of candidates into the market, but that doesn’t make too much sense because even though my profile was set to prefer remote, I did get some local recruiters in my inbox for a bit. 2) Weird internal ranking system. Not to sound conspiratorial, but I’ve started to wonder if LinkedIn downranks people in searches if they don’t engage, and around November I was ignoring a lot of recruiters. I’m not sure if it’s likely, but it wouldn’t be the first time I’ve heard of something like that. For reference, I have around 5 years professional experience, mostly in the .NET enterprise world, but have worked with other things in the last and many things outside of work. Anyone noticed this before? Is there anything I can do to get recruiters to start talking to me again, or am I just in a very bad market?
