   Simplicity and elegance

   It is very well built with simplicity in mind. There are several themes and all of them look amazing. I love the "typewriter" and "focus" mode. In contrast with other apps that focus the current window and remove all visibility options, Typora goes one step ahead and fades down all other paragraphs as well.

   🏁 Competitors: wereturtle.github.io ghostwriter, iA Writer, MonsterWriter

   👍 Pros:    Beautiful themes|Typewriter mode|Focus mode

• Show HN: Lexeme – open-source ChatGPT text editor

  If Lexeme is similar to Typora (https://typora.io), it could be fantastic and might even surpass Typora in terms of quality. On the other hand, if Typora already has these features, it's quite powerful. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Ask HN: How did you migrate off Evernote?

  Evernote was ok for a little bit, but the only thing it really did for me was search... Once I realized that I switched tactics. I organized my life into domains, and got okay at using grep to replace it. My saving grace that I would pay twice for is https://typora.io. Though worth mentioning Apple Notes has come a long way. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

  Typora https://typora.io/ Open source — https://hackmd.io/ I’ve used all three, the first two are are WYSIWYG. All are collaborative. HackMD has a nice two window editor that renders MD as you type. Curious how Vrite compares with these. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• 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
