maybe because of brexit. wouldn't justify it. just a wild guess

isn't supported anymore?

Spyglass looks interesting, providing a unified search GUI for which I use a bunch of CLI search tools (ripgrep, ripgrep-all, and now bogrep) as well as some simple bash scripts. S…

"Rewind compresses, transcribes, encrypts, and stores your data locally so only you have access." sounds good. Was your CPU usage ok when running the background service?

Interesting setup! Personally, I would be cautious to use such a screenshot service though. Even if self-hosted, it could screenshot credentials, environment files, and my password…

Using Bogrep, I could only find https://tenderowl.com/work/frog/ in my bookmarks which is a bit related, but doesn't seem to be what you're looking for.

Thanks, yep I'm currently working on proper support for Bogrep on macOS.

Occasionally, I need full-text search on my bookmarks to find a specific bookmark I added some time ago. Usually, browsers only support search of bookmarks in the website's title t…

Forwarding is clear, but how did you set up the "send as" feature?

Google is currently contacting developers to remove unnecessary permissions from your app manifest or declare why it is needed. Specifically, it's about "powerful" permissions like…

IMO, building a social network is quite difficult nowadays because you can't monetize it right away. So you either have to bootstrap as a side project and build a community for yea…

Thanks for trying. Difficult to change a business model if it's working quite well (financially). Long-term thinking and short-term bonus payments don't align. Kudos for your decis…

I'm still fine with Thunderbird as a MUA (more or less). Using number 1 and 4 as shortcuts to mark an email as "todo" or "urgent". Invitation to appointments (ics file format) can …

Can confirm. Unfortunately, Postman is too resource-hungry (on Ubuntu). Launching is taking a while as well. I have to admit I'm quite surprised that VS Code (which is also an elec…

UI/UX can't be tested easily. IMO, this is why continuous delivery is especially important in (GUI) apps.

It's not breaking often. But even handling rare issues is a pain in the app stores.

I'm having a Flutter app running both on iOS and Android. Currently, review time of Apple App Store, Samsung Galaxy Store and Huawei AppGallery is about 1-3 days which is not great…

Good point. If you are using Linux on a daily basis, it's easier to set up a server than configuring AWS.

Now, that Google Analytics is illegal in EU (and other providers with data processing in the US might too) which web analytics software is still safe to use in the European Union?

Google did recently update its review process. I was complaining about its previous review process for 10 months at least. It's a little better now. Previously, an app was suspende…

Right, my history of suffering went on for 11 months. Unfortunately, I don't know anyone at Google and I didn't made it to HN.

I read "Shazam for Chess" which would be quite interesting. 1.) Make a photo of a chess position 2.) Recognize position and convert to digital format 3.) Search chess database of g…

Google's extremely annoying Cookie selection is a UX nightmare: scrolling past two pages before you can press a button. I'd rather go to the library than use Google Search ever aga…
