    "witch-hunted to death" is a fairly generous interpretation of "I am no longer going to be a Mullvad customer" don't you think?

    Is there a way yet to force-trigger a timer? There wasn't the last time I used them, which I found to be super annoying for testing them.

    I really do understand the desires people have for iOS to be a more open platform, but I'm just gonna say very clearly: I do not want third party apps being able to do what OP's ap…

    True, but the VC money will have been paid back, and what are we if not meat for the soulless machine of capitalism?

    You can make the vast majority of them go away by rebooting into recovery mode, running Terminal and then executing: csrutil disable nvram boot-args="amfi_get_out_of_my_way=0x1" I …

    v1 won't stop working until Apple breaks something it relies on, and there may be interested community people who step up to take over maintenance.

    Comment #47382885

    I expect that is possible, but the specific choice of JavaScript is because Apple ships a framework that bridges types very nicely between native and JS. It's used by WebKit, so it…

    Mostly the former, but the latter is also attractive. Once I got the basic core working and a couple of modules implemented, I had Claude build me a script that extracts type infor…

    Really there's very little that v2 might do, that v1 couldn't. This is almost all about me not wanting to maintain a big pile of Objective C and Lua anymore. I want to be working i…

    Would it then interest you to know that the build process for v2 ships a hammerspoon.d.ts with the app? :)

    Not really any more or less than in v1 - which is to say that it's possible to execute those scripts from Hammerspoon, but there's no rich bridging between them.

    Comment #47382816

    The limitation is entirely on the developer side - for years now there have only really been three of us working on Hammerspoon with any regularity, and that has been significantly…

    Comment #47382797

    I'll happily agree that JavaScript is not a very nice language, but to be honest, I don't think Lua is a very nice language either. It's easy to embed in C though, which is why we …

    Comment #47382764

    The simple answer is not having to maintain a really complicated language bridge anymore. The more complex answer is that Hammerspoon is currently about 100k lines of Objective C, …

    Hammerspoon maintainer here - I'm enjoying reading all the comments, and hoping that everyone isn't going to be annoyed that I'm mostly working on a v2 atm, which switches from Lua…

    The experience is what you make of it. Personally I'm quite enjoying using AI as a way to generate code I can disagree with and refactor into what I want.

    The marketing is irrelevant. The AIs are not aware of what they are doing, or motivated in the ways humans are.

    Intel GPUs are probably not going to last much longer, considering they did a deal with nvidia for integrated GPUs.

    Gaming is now less than 10% of nvidia's revenue. We're really not adding any meaningful diversity to their bottom line anymore.
