CLion (and other JetBrains IDEs for that matter) doesn’t send any of your code to AI in the Cloud (unless you use sth like AI Assistant yourself, of course)
All duckduckgo software is filled with telemetry and analytics that cannot be disabled (The search engine, the Android web browser, the Windows web browser).
I’m writing an interpreter for the Starlark language in pure Kotlin (no JVM dependencies).
I had this idea in mind for some time already, it began with me wanting to build a simple programming language (and learn in the process) and interest in Bazel.
I got started about a month ago by going through the Crafting Interpreters book by Bob Nystrom (it’s crazy good), but now Im straying further and further away from it.
Overall I find the project a great mixture of fun and challenging.
It’s a private repo for now because it’s in a pretty rough state, and is still missing a lot of stuff, but I will release as OSS at some point. That said if someone would like it could be fun:)
Am I? The modern west are the most evil empires ever in history. I’m sure I can trust what western chauvinists say about their hegemony across the world as they bomb and do regime changes around the world.
A person supporting NATO as “defense” is supporting, for example, the Libyan regime change by the west and NATO.
Freeform also works incredibly bad on my iPad (sluggish, unstable, crashing). It’s definitely a software issue. I never had such performance issues with Notability.
But yes. The overall decline in Apple’s software quality is evident and sad.
the fact that it's open-source and nicely structured internally lets you "peel off" the topmost YAML layer and just use the underlying components to interact with the mobile device, using your JVM-compatible language of choice.
In my little experience, many big companies are heavily invested in Appium, which was the only viable solution x years ago, and keep clinging on to that.
Also Maestro may not be flexible/hackable enough for some of the things they do with Appium. But in the long term I think everyone would benefit if Maestro became the go-to UI testing tool, the way Docker became the go-to tool for containerization.
> The quality of most mobile apps sucks so not sure why mobile testing is not mainstream?
I think it's actually: mobile testing is not mainstream, so most mobile apps suck, haha.
btw, I think that most mobile apps actually make no sense at all (many are just stupid CRUDs), and should be web apps. But that'd be a whole different rant :)
Yes, you can use our SDKs to run it locally on Simulators, Emulators, and real devices. We also support popular third-party device farms via the WebDriver protocol.
By default, the SDKs use our API endpoints, where we run a combination of models to maximize accuracy and reliability. This also enables us to provide logging with screenshots and reasoning to help with debugging.
That said, we're currently experimenting with a few customers who run our tooling against their own hosted models. While it's not publicly available yet, we might introduce that option going forward.
Would love to hear more about your use case, if a self-hosted setup is relevant or just the use of your own LLM tokens?
