I wanted to build my own window manager at some point, but was quickly scared away by the lack of a proper API on MacOS. You basically need to hack your way around it by using the accessibility API instead. I see this project uses Objective C bindings and the accessibility API and am wondering how easy it was to debug, write features and what kind of tooling was used for this.

Any vacation or trip planned soon? An alibi you were away from home could prove you’re not the source of the noise. We recently had a very similar situation. It makes you feel quite powerless and frustrated, I hope you guys figure it out soon. Mediation is key in a situation like this, so it’s nice the building owner is already involved. We tried being proactive and showed good will to our downstairs neighbor but unfortunately they kept complaining. The landlord had ensured them, it wasn’t us. In the end it turned out to be coming from somewhere else. Or at least that’s what they started believing.

heh I notice I really don’t care what any of the terminal emulators provide in terms (get it) of functionality. iTerm2 now has “AI”. What? As long as I have my good ol trusty tmux setup I’m good. Since the multiplexer _is_ the middleman it has become the perfect place to implement functionality which would otherwise be emulator specific.

Oof, Pulumi here. A module was wrapping a Terraform module which wraps a REST client which wraps the provider’s API. Errors only came forward during a `pulumi up` instead of being caught during a `preview`. Fun times digging through those multiple layers of abstractions

Getting a pull request accepted in an open source project. (Thanks Cyanogenmod folks! Wouldn't be where I am today without you guys!)

Heh! I just started using keycloak y'day in combination with oauth2-proxy to give me a way of completely delegating authentication. This way I don't have to worry about auth _in_ any of my apps. Really nice experience so far and fantastic documentation.

I recently naturally grew into a management role due to seniority and churn. I cannot wait to get back to becoming an IC again. All these meeting are tiring and unrewarding. Growing team members is pretty rewarding, but I don't have to be a manager for that. Disagree with OP on giving up control of the code base. You are still responsible for the quality the team delivers and in many companies your seniority will mean you'll still code review. You just no longer have the time to actively steer. Not a nice position IMO

Just. Wow. This has piqued my interest, is there any background information as to why this happened (so often)? There must have been underlying tentions, wondering what those were, but can imagine it's just lost to history

I’ve always found https://rxmarbles.com, illustrating rx functionality pretty neat

Tried Komorebi while running Windows and liked it a lot! Got too annoyed with Windows in general and went back to PopOS with tiling enabled. Would love to see PopOS’ intuitive window swapping/stacking in Komorebi one day

One running LibreElec and one as a web server running my Amsterdam ferry app https://pont.app. But the most “creative” has got to be the one that measures IAQ and CO2 in my office. It also runs Prometheus and Grafana as a front end. Custom 3D printed case for the sensors which are attached with embedded magnets.

I love it. Would buy t-shirts.

Really like the look and feel. Good job! I feel like this could be expanded to a more social level. Meet up with friends at the cafe (eyyy), students at the library, gym buddy's at the gym, etc. I saw datumprikker being mentioned already, Café could indeed be a more ad hoc version of that. Not really "planning" anything, but just nice to know some buddies of yours will be somewhere. Best of luck with the launch!

Ensure proper nutrition when exercising and don't push yourself too hard. Completely know this feeling btw. Guilty next day etc. Will depend a lot on the person, but for me a big part was eating and drinking more. Always check with a healthcare professional. I am not one of those.
