Some companies use things like CoderPad or Google Docs (yes, Google really used to use Google Docs). Those don't let you run the code either so they're more like whiteboards. Source: about 2 years ago

I am a CS major with a computer engineering minor. I want to prepare myself to apply for an Embedded Engineering Internship. The interview process includes a coding task on coderpad.io, I have no clue what to expect - what kind of questions will be asked for an embedded internship? I say this because coding embedded systems is rather different from "regular" coding in practice. High level v low level. Source: about 2 years ago

CoderPad : Quickly Conduct Coding Interviews and Phone Screen Interviews. - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago

I am prepping for a final round interview for a frontend position at a medium size company. The recruiter gave me some information about one of the coding rounds and I am not entirely sure what to expect. The description says I will be building a fullstack web app, and the goal is to test my frontend and backend knowledge, and get a working solution. I will be using https://excalidraw.com/ in addition to... Source: over 2 years ago

The specific target interview format I have in mind is via a shared, live editor (e.g. https://coderpad.io/) and a video link, lasting ~1hr. The practice format might be more like 45min for the interview followed by 15 - 30min for feedback and discussion. Doing two of those back to back so both of us get our chance in the hot seat could be exhausting, so this might be two separate sessions. Source: over 2 years ago

I built a native all-in-one AI client called BoltAI[0] It’s one of the first AI clients I think. I’ve been working on it for 16 months and shipped more than 100 releases. It started with the idea of invoking an LLM within the Apple Notes app. I hate going back-and-forth between the Notes app and ChatGPT web app. So I built the “AI inline” feature where I can trigger a keyboard shortcut and it would send the prompt... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

My apps are native Mac apps [0] [1] so naturally I use the native SDK for that. Apple provides PDFKit framework to work with PDFs and it works really well. For scanned documents, I use the Vision framework to OCR the content. Some additional content cleaning is still required but overall I don’t need any other third-party libraries.

It depends a lot on the GPT client (third-party application). My app (BoltAI) does support web search (via Google Search) and web browsing (built-in) but not chat w/ PDF functionality. I built another app[0] specifically for that use case. So I guess if you need an all-in-one kind of functionality then ChatGPT could be a better choice.

If you're on macOS, give PDF Pals a try (https://pdfpals.com). Unlike other alternatives, it allows you to use with scanned textbooks & does not have any file size restriction. Source: over 1 year ago
