HackerChat is a revolutionary idea comparable only to the invention of hot water or the re-engineering of the wheel. HackerChat will solve any communication issue by putting a chat right where you need it: right in the terminal. On top of that, HackerChat comes with state-of-the-art filters to facilitate communication and reduce professional and cultural misunderstandings (UK only).
For example:
# Dev filters:
> It's very verbose # this will be translated to its correct meaning:
> It's Java
# Company-wise filers:
> Don't worry! # will be translated to:
> Be worried!
# UK filters:
> I hear what you say # will be translated to:
> I disagree and do not want to discuss it further
> That is a very brave proposal # will be translated to:
> You are insane
Over-engineered, under-tested and completely unstable, HackerChat has the security of a V8 mounted on a shopping cart: a great experience for your CPU and absolute hell for your users.
Make development great again!
