A ChatGPT GitHub Action for Reviewing Text for Potentially Discriminatory Language
This story has been a motivating principle behind my life for a long time, and therefore, whenever I've worked on docs, I've thought about how I could ensure that exclusionary words, even unintentionally, did not make their way into the final copy. During my time at Nexmo, a communications API company, I introduced Alex, an NPM package that helps you identify potentially exclusionary language in your writing, into the CI/CD pipeline for the documentation.

What external tools do you use in your workflow?
As a philosophy student: Zotero for reference management, the Better BibTeX plugin to auto-generate a .bib file, and two language servers for diagnostics: LTeX for grammar- and spellchecking, and alex for style and sensitivity checking.

JavaScript library that converts a string to gender-neutral language?
When using it as a lib you can pass a markdown string (https://github.com/get-alex/alex#markdownvalue-config) or raw text string (https://github.com/get-alex/alex#textvalue-config). This will return an object that should contain everything you need to perform a naive replacement.

Detect Non-Inclusive Language with Retext and Node.js
alex is a lovely command-line tool that takes in text or markdown files and, using retext-equality and retext-profanities, highlights suggestions for improvement. alex checks for gendered work titles, gendered proverbs, ableist language, condescending or intolerant language, profanities, and much more.

Mod fight over pronoun flairs in /r/programminghorror
I've been a part of several code clean-ups where giant code bases needed to be changed to considerate language. I've never once encountered a bad actor when the actual work got underway. Part of being a programmer is to question the reasoning behind large changes but any programmer worth their salt understands the big picture if you can clearly explain it. I wouldn't read too much into the actions of a few people in any programming subreddit who are opposed to pronouns. Those people will always exist. I'm certain that the vast majority of programmers in those subs are either strongly in favour of gendered pronouns or are apathetic toward it. To drive home the point, the fight for considerate language has been driven by developers themselves. All these wonderful tools such as alex.js or even org level changes inside big companies are part of it.

Need help setting up a remote depository using GitHub and VCS
Do you run a Webserver during development, even if it is a simple dev-server like https://www.npmjs.com/package/http-server ?

What is the simplest way to run an index.html file inside a server.js file using node.js
I mean, there are ones, like https://github.com/http-party/http-server you can inspect that code, but basically, it’s a job an nginx can do without any JS.

Looking to host React Static Application on AWS S3 question on dependencies
Does the website work correctly when run locally without a server? If so, then it should be fine to be compiled and deployed. You can always check ahead of time by building your website and then running it with a CLI like http-server to replicate what S3 will do.

Opened my angular project after a week to find it like that? (All the stuff i built doesn't appear anymore). Any Idea why ? (Note: in the extensions the "Angular Language Service" seems to have had an update). Opening from Chrome shows the html but not the rest of the code.
You can use https://www.npmjs.com/package/http-server but you need to build your app before with ng build then serve the generated bundle (be careful to environment file replacement in angular.json)

What is the Go equivalent of Node http-server?
You probably need a few hundred lines of code and some external modules to be able to build what https://www.npmjs.com/package/http-server has. ``` Available Options: Command Description Defaults -p or --port Port to use. Use -p 0 to look for an open port, starting at 8080. It will also read from process.env.PORT. 8080 -a Address to use 0.0.0.0 -d Show directory listings true -i Display autoIndex true -g or --gzip When enabled it will serve ./public/some-file.js.gz in place of ./public/some-file.js when a gzipped version of the file exists and the request accepts gzip encoding. If brotli is also enabled, it will try to serve brotli first. false -b or --brotli When enabled it will serve ./public/some-file.js.br in place of ./public/some-file.js when a brotli compressed version of the file exists and the request accepts br encoding.

- When they run the http-server command in the codespace, is it an alias in the .bashrc file that executes something along the lines of 'sudo systemctl start apache2' after they configured the apache2 server? Or is there a much simpler aproach that I didn't take into consideration?

Need help with links when deploying local vs. remote
Whenever your server is doing something, your local environment should do it too. That means you can no longer just open an HTML file in your browser but need to run a local server which mirrors all of the same features that your browser has. For example, http-server is a simple command-line server tool which has an option for "default file extension if none supplied".
