<p class="card-text">A whole new way of coding. When JetBrains offered me a trial of Junie, an AI assistant built into IntelliJ, I had to give it a go. I soon saw the potential, it’s kind of like an AI coding partner (albeit a little dumb at times), but that’s okay, if used responsibly. So here’s what I’ve learned about coding responsibly with AI—so far.</p>

<a href="/computing/" class="badge bg-primary text-decoration-none mb-2">Computing</a>
<p class="card-text">GitHub Actions is a powerful platform for automating workflows and tasks in your software development process. When creating workflows, you often need to set default values for variables or parameters, especially when certain values are not always going to be provided. In this blog post, let’s explore two techniques to set default values in GitHub Actions workflows, including a handy <!-- raw HTML omitted -->! contains()<!-- raw HTML omitted --> approach and the double pipe <!-- raw HTML omitted -->||<!-- raw HTML omitted --> hack. We’ll also discuss the potential limitations of the double pipe hack.</p>
