"The CRM has this address wrong" - Client

"What do you mean? Where?" - Me

"When I start typing the business name it autofills wrong" - Client

"You mean Chrome is auto-completing from a previous typo you entered, and you're blaming the software? That'll be $100 for Chrome training." - Me

Straight from a marketing analyst (we didn't have a PM) I once had the displeasure of working with:

"Can you write a JavaScript that will scan a user's hard drive for credit card numbers and autofill the checkout form on our client's web site? I think it will increase their conversion rate."

The guy didn't believe me when I told him it was impossible (barring exploits that would break the browser's sandbox), unethical, and probably illegal. I had to escalate all the way to the CEO to get him to drop it.

The literally recommended autofill for my password 😐

Fuck.

I ordered something online.

Autofill fucks up my address but I don't notice it. Get the notification that it's out for delivery. Go check my PO box after I see the USPS driver leave the complex. Package isn't here.

What the fuck?

Check the email only to notice I fucked the address up and there's literally no street name. Just my apartment number for the PO box. Well hopefully it gets taken back to the USPS store and I have to pick it up bc if not, then God only knows where it's at because I sure as fuck won't.

I've been coding in Visual Studio so much that when Google Chrome pops up suggested autofill options I just press tab and nothing happens.

"Hey, this Chrome autofill feature is so helpful and does exactly what I expect" - said no one ever.

I just realized.. The way I play Sudoku (I use autofill) ~= why I program and write utility libraries

Skip the boring stuff and get to the actual problem

The trope of pressing "p" in the address bar and getting pornhub as the autofill sure does apply to me for "d" and devRant

Corporate computer with autofill for password to secured document system. Just typed in the console Document.getElementById('password').value to print it out.

Am now l33t h@ckzor?

Worked on project that has multiple forms. After deployment colleague asks me if I made the Chrome in-build autofill form function. He really liked and loved the option. Colleague calls himself front-end developer. True story!

this got autofilled in some form today.
interesting

So after multiple hours of wrestling with Jira I finally managed to autofill fields in the service desk. How? By installing a plugin to show message boxes and injecting JavaScript through it, what else?

Fucking wonderful piece of crap :)

Next up: automatically capture errors triggered by employees with Sentry and raise Jira requests. "A button didn't work" isn't enough god damn it.

How can a software developer be too incompetent to send a mail to the correct adresse.
My boss sent one to my private adress, instead of my work adress. I mean I know, autofill, but still second time this happened in one week..

Been using LastPass for a couple of years, but I'm looking for an alternative because good lord how slow its become. Suggestions?

Needs to be cross-platform/browser and be able to autofill user credentials, don't care about form fields.

Jira is fantastic and offers flexibility and solutions to all situations! All basic tools are there! You just need to pay for each little thing until you either run out of money or the Jira servers crashesh under its own slowness.

For example, if you'd like to quickly create Tasks, you just need to buy plugins that autofill fields. No way that it could be done otherwise. You need to script your everyday Jira actions? Just be the admin for the whole enterprise and you get to write your own scripts.

Holy balls, autofill is my favorite new feature of Android!

My keepass, which I've been using and been hopelessly dependent on since 2002 or so, is now compliant with autofill through keepass2android. Cackling with glee over here.

Is it just me, or is form autofill in the browser just a major PITA for shop owners when people get to the checkout screen? I've had two clients in the past week with problems where users didn't pay attention to their autofill outcomes, or where the form absolutely has to keep a certain value that we've autofilled for them but gets overwritten by their browser. Now there is a shipment of product out in the wind that is going to return to sender and be delayed in a correction cycle. If you've been able to halt this type of nonsense, I'd love to know how you did it.

function ignoreAutoFill() {return browserSitDownAndShutUp;}

hmm I need suggestion.

Actually am working on autocomplete address (zip code to autofill countries,state,city) feature.

But am confused with events. For example I have input field user is typing zip code so on which event I call my api example onsubmit or onChanged.

I seriously don't want to use onSubmit. But if I use onChange event than it will start searching for every character :(

any advice

I think Atom's autofill has gone crazy

Are you still in waiting list of GitHub Copilot?

TryShift.com - I got this app hoping to consolidate my gmail accounts into a single place. I've been using it for months (maybe a year now) and I just can't see why anymore lol.

1) It logs me out every week or so and dashlane can't autofill my password from within the app so I have to go copy-paste it.
2) The app is basically just a browser
3) There are bugs and one of them just started with the only feature worth using the app for (unread email count in the mac osx dock)
4) The app blocks my macbook from restarting
5) The app won't update when I click "Update & Restart". I have to quit it manually and often it still won't update when I open it again.

UGH! Just uninstalled, opened both my gmail accounts in chrome, and sighed from relief.
