• Automating standups using GPT4 and Github APIs

  We think GitReport could replace standup apps like Geekbot. So we're making it into a product. More Git features are coming, like tracking issues and pull requests. Source: 9 months ago

• Agile / Scrum

  We run standups every day, however only 2x of them are a Teams call. The other 3 are run using a tool called Geekbot (Yes scrum masters do hate this) which is basically just a chatbot that sends you the standard standup questions and you can answer whenever you feel like it. This has helped our team heaps due to having such a huge mix of people in our team (Cloud Eng, Database Eng, Software Eng, Network Eng) that... Source: 12 months ago

• What do you really think of your daily standup?

  My new job recently pulled in https://geekbot.com/ to handle stand ups. Answer a couple basic questions when you login, and they’re all sent to a central channel. I’m not big on that type of communication in general, but it takes maybe 30 seconds each morning. Source: over 1 year ago

• As an IC, is there anything I can do about super cheerful team members using up meetings time?

  We use Geekbot to help standups. The feedback from each dev goes into a channel, then we talk about things that need to be addressed or things we're working on. Source: over 1 year ago

• Scrum Has Failed the Developers

  Back in 2005, I remember working on startups running on Scrum principles. It worked well at the time, we where able to ship, grow the team, and move forward with a nice few-features-per-week cadence, working remotely, on a small team; less than 10. Tt always worked fine, but very slow, as all-dev-things were at the time. I worked with ActiveColab in 2007, Skype 2007, Yammer 2009, Trello 2011, Pivotal Tracker 2013,... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Why are so many books listed as "Borrow Unavailable" at the Internet Archive?

  Yes, great works of art can and should be preserved by making images and data freely available. How much of that is being done? Quite frankly, I don't know, but there are a number of museums that make their collections available to view online. Check out some of the links below. https://www.louvre.fr/en/online-tours#virtual-tours https://www.si.edu/exhibitions/online https://artsandculture.google.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 6 days ago

• Can you even 'digitally curate' historical works? What counts as curation?

  Google art & culture is a terrific example if you are looking for one. Source: 9 months ago

• How do I get a custom print of a piece of art?

  If this is the case, hurdle #2 is getting a high resolution scan of the work. Your first stop should be the museum's website - they might have it right there for download. If it's a really well-known artist or piece, you might also find it at https://artsandculture.google.com/ - they have thousands of hi-res scans. Source: about 1 year ago

• My 3 year old son drew "a rooster"

  Uh, yeah. You need to create and environment for him to do this all the time. You need to drop money on supplies and see which he gravitates towards. You need to feed all the art in the world and see what he gravitates to, you can do this with with a Google Arts and Culture account You need to get season passes to set museums so he can study the textures and light. You need not to push this aside. He needs to... Source: over 1 year ago
