Carry a burner old phone and ship your actual. Be prepared to smash the phone or otherwise brutalize it if they demand to search it, then let them have at it.

It's probably Azure infra that's the problem.

Bbedit is better than Sublime and is arguably more refined.

I use it and Bbedit and vi.

Personal tools built to solve real problems that no commercial product would address. AI-native development, trunk-based git, 12-factor philosophy. Every tool is a single binary or a single HTML file. I have about a dozen tools cooking to help legacy media management “power users” escape from MacOS and Window ecosystems with a focus on getting more out of the hardware and being production, vs. consumption, focused in setup and mindset.

This is my project and open to anyone who wants to hard fork it or whatever. It’s more like a gist than a repo because I won’t bartend PRs.

It has the apfs-monitor and basic media browser that’s roughly a cross between pre ElCap iPhoto and pre OSX iView multimedia and you can edit tags and comments and dive into tag groups by clicking tags. Extended attributes and file metadata are loaded into a SQLite DB at startup and all that fetching never happens again.

Since the released version I’ve added ~100 features.

Repo is trunk based and atypical for github. There are brew based dependencies.

I’ll formalize more later.

Because like everything else in technology, executive don’t understand it beyond a first order level and assign their own value system to it. It seems like magic TO THEM because they’ve never been able to orchestrate such capability without friction until now and that is the shadow of 20 years of search and semantic search stagnation mostly due to Google.

I’ve made a bunch of tools to help me get around file system limitations on modern Macs (APFS) and treating my entire legacy file collection as CMS challenge and have cranked out more binaries in 3 months than in the 10 years before the arrival of these tools. If you know how to use these tools and how to think like an architect and not a hobbyist Claude is truly in the technological lead.

I am a bit, but not much, younger than 60 and have been coding since Apple II days.

These tools are pretty close to HAL 9000 so of course GIGO as always has been the case with computer tech.

Almost everything is in Go except an image fingerprinting api server written in Swift. The most USEFUL thing I’ve written is a Go based APFS monitor that will help you not overfill your SSD and get pained into corner by Time Machine.

That’s a lot of words for you don’t know what actually happened. /if

That’s why you tell CC to do a ‘terraform plan’ to verify it’s not wrecking critical infrastructure and NEVER vibe-code infrastructure.

Best advice is if you have to rearchitect your system JUST to run it on Kubernetes you probably don’t know enough about it yet.

I have worked with ~100 dev teams across industries modernizing infrastructure and most dev teams are too silo’d off from operations to effectively use K8s off the shelf.
