At least they remembered where the dark and light colors go this time around[1]. [1]: https://512pixels.net/2025/06/wwdc25-macos-tahoe-breaks-deca...

Oh this is amazing, thank you! I tried to make my own but youtube's CSS is so complex, I gave up. I have no idea why they push shorts to me when I'm on my computer. But then again,…

> Good that Alan Dye is no longer at apple. Yeah, but I doubt that would change much; the amount of damage done would be difficult to roll back. What do you think Apple is going to…

I like sourcehut. It's the only forge out there that isn't set out to copy the Github UI like everyone else. And its UI itself feels instantaneous, as if it was running locally.

For sure. Personally, I avoid shortened aliases like that. I regularly need to use barebones systems so I wouldn't like something like "ll" (`ls -l`) or "gst" (`git status`) becomi…

I use bog-standard zsh without any plugins or any of the fancy stuff, but one of the most useful tricks I use is to leverage interactive comments. If I have a long command I know I…

It's a good point, I suppose, but it doesn't have to be so black-and-white. There are certain exceptions to this no-account rule of course, like for your bank. Now, would HN be bet…

Security/privacy yeah. I don't do business with Twitter/Facebook for the same reason. In the case of GitHub, if I want to contribute something, I am going to do it volitionally, kn…

> A particular thing I don’t like about git forge websites is the way they make you create an account. Exactly. I used to have a GitHub account but as soon as it got bought out by …

Last week, I started to explore `pass`[1], to move away from my current Authy + iCloud Keychain ecosystems. It's pretty barebones but that's what I like about it. I like it so much…

Absolutely devastated at the news. Bram was really patient with me based on the few times I tried to contribute. I always liked his way of doing things, despite complaints from oth…

Text objects are cool, but `ca)` would remove the parenthesis too. There's no shorter way to get to `my_func(foo);` when your cursor is at the comma, than using the motion OP indic…

Did you give hiding the map a shot? Makes it a little more challenging.

Thanks! I registered directly on ISNIC. Process was pretty straightforward and I was able to add my DNS records just fine. Do you know if they have any safeguards against domain tr…

gandi.net seems to charge $364/year for any .is domain. Namecheap charges around the same price as isnic. Any reason why I shouldn't register the domain on isnic directly? Are ther…

There is interactive blaming, staging and committing with tig too, so give that a try. That said though, I actually prefer using the shell to stage and commit stuff. I think I'm wa…

I don't use neovim so I don't know what the differences are. The commands work fine for me in vim however.

Very early on in my vim journey, I used to use fugitive[1], which is sort of a lighter equivalent of magit for vim. However, I found that too overkill and unwieldy. I never really …

An example of this that I noticed just recently: Here's the doc for a deprecated `launch` method of `Process`: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/process... . It'…

I use Newsblur[1] in the browser. The best part of Newsblur for me, is its intelligence trainer. Suppose you want feeds from website A, but don't want certain stories tagged with "…

Conversely, the introduction of News+ and the overwhelming amount of News+ exclusive articles made me delete the app entirely. At least with Apple Music, I could turn the features …

WSJ tested some of these scenarios: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7xI2dUPN3A Seems very hard to trigger inadvertently, so it makes sense to me that they use an algorithm that fa…

I use two banks. Schwab for checking, as others have said, they’re excellent. Discover for savings for that 2% interest. I’ve tried other online only banks, ally for instance. But …

Agreed, I don't get the ligature craze recently. They look ugly, and sometimes, they don't accurately reflect an operation most of the time, for instance when you use operator over…
