HN has an official API that returns JSON objects. Meanwhile Google actively blocks and attempts to pursue legal action against scrapers. Not to mention prohibiting it through TOS (…

Check out Scroll Reverser; it's a tiny, open source app that solves exactly this. There are some other alternatives like BetterTouchTool if you want some other changes like gesture…

`caffeinate` is primarily designed to prevent sleeping due to inactivity. It doesn't prevent sleeping due to lid closure while on battery. `sudo pmset -b disablesleep 1` (0 to reve…

Ah, right. It would have to be `strings -n 1`, then.

Wouldn't strings(1) have worked for this?

Static linking packs the dependencies into the executable. This is basically dynamic vendoring.

Good to hear. What hypervisor are you using (UTM, VMWare, Parallels)?

I quite like Shelter [1]. Shelter apps are installed in a separate work profile, which essentially sandboxes it from the rest of your data. It also has a neat feature to automatica…

Oh wow. Your original comment is pretty darn prophetic.
