   One of my favourite productivity tools as a software developer

   Once you get use to it, you won't be able to imagine your life without Dash. It will save you a bit of time every day. Many times.

   As a bonus you can use the "snippets" feature as a generic text-expander. That saves me tons of time when writing emails, too.

   p.s. aText is not exactly a direct competitor; however, I replaced it through the snippets feature of Dash.

• Man pages are great, man readers are the problem

  Https://kapeli.com/dash for MacOS supports man pages just like any of its many other documentation sources. Just prefix the search query with `man:`. Absolute hall of fame app IMO. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Why "alias" is my last resort for aliases

  Yeah, I do something kind of similar, using Dash [1] snippets which expand to full commands. Since I'm almost always on my mac, it means they're available in every shell, including remote shells, and in other situations like on Slack or writing documentation. I mostly use § as a prefix so I don't type them accidentally (although my git shortcuts are all `gg`-consonant which is not likely to appear in real typing).... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Patterns for Personal Web Sites (2003)

  Yeah, I keep thinking that CHM was the peak format for offline docs. Today we have Kiwix [0] and Dash/Zeal [1] – both amazing projects, but somehow they feel more complex, and the formats they use aren’t as ubiquitous.

• Ask HN: What is one software product that boosted your productivity?

  Dash https://kapeli.com/dash Mac app. A native standardised search and browsing interface for the documentation of almost every programming language out there (and in some cases, their third-party libraries too). - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Rerun: Visualize Multimodal Data over Time

  Rerun is great. I wish they prioritize rerun_sdk build for iOS and/or Android - so that you can log remotely from mobile devices. Serializing and streaming images, depthmaps, sensors data in own code is a pain and rerun has done great work with that. A little worrying for me that rerun seems getting more complicated and verbose and API changes frequently. The whole vizualization code can clutter algorithm/code... - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• Best places to learn coding on your own?

  I'm currently in an entry java class and learned some python but I want to start projects on my own. Without much coding knowledge, I was wondering where could I learn more on my own and start projects? So far, I have found Treehouse but are there better sites? Source: over 3 years ago

• Serious question: what kind of job can I start moving toward?

  Leveraging video instruction like Team Treehouse is how I have filled my gaps along with articles and reading more books. Source: over 3 years ago
