@satya164 well)))) As someone on a 222-day streak...

Ok, seriously, who uses LinkedIn to play stupid games? They even started sending emails with these.

@sabziz Instead of disabling SIP on your whole machine for some users it will be enough to just run this in a VM which has SIP disabled

I reverse engineered iMessage so it sends you a notification whenever someone starts typing... Here's how it works. 1. The app injects its own code into the iMessage app using DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES to hook into its internal methods 2. Dynamically loads Apple's private IMCore.framework at runtime. This is iMessage's internal framework that handles all message/typing logic, but it's not publicly available so it can't be linked normally 3. Replaces private methods like IMMessageItem.isIncomingTypingMessage to intercept typing events 4. When intercepted, the injected code posts system notifications 5. My Swift app listens for those notifications and forwards them to iOS The one caveat is you need to disable some security features on your Mac 🙃. Trying to find a better approach for this though! More features coming. Sign up for access: imessageintelligence.com

@charbelrizek @Cartidise I didn’t believe it until I tried it myself reddit.com/r/ios/s/FXP2eJ…

@DimitarNestorov @Cartidise No offload the app will not clear the cache, deleting and reinstalling will

why do apps on iOS take so much space like, all the apps SO LARGE for seemingly no reason at all gmail on Android takes like 40MB to download and 170MB to run

@Cartidise You actually can, offload the app and bring it back, restart settings and you will see it takes up less space

Not being able to clear the cache of apps individually makes it EVEN WORSE

@yeshvndr @theojehl @dariusdan your tabs don't become invisible when you don't have enough room on the screen. jokes aside what features do you need from a browser? it works, it's more power efficient

@theojehl @dariusdan I get the power efficiency part. But features?

The battle of the browsers. As a mac user I always get back to Safari, a true browser. The rest are just Chrome skins. We need something more than a side chat.

@Kosma05042221 @Azadux That’s not how you get 5K likes

@Azadux Maybe show that this issue is a joke and just referring to the actual post on reddit

I think about this daily

@atulit_gaur There’s this startup called Microsoft that actually does it

Startup idea: laptop with sim cards so that we can use mobile data on laptops too

@Cartidise Default signature since 2007. Subtle brand awareness from the very beginning.

Why does Apple still automatically add this “Sent from my iPhone” to emails in 2025 Why would I want to tell someone that this was sent from an iPhone?

@vishyfishy2 if you’re typing this in the console you can just do $('video').playbackRate = 4

youtube premium now has 4x speed... but they don't want you to know this one trick: document.querySelector("video").playbackRate = 4

@jeffreylind @TheAppleDesign you‘re just not following creators that talk about shortcuts often like @stephenrobles r/shortcuts has almost 500K people

@TheAppleDesign I never find myself using it…I feel like it’s super underrated and not talked about to the point where even tech nerds like me don’t know much about it. Or maybe just a skill issue on my part

Shortcuts is the most powerful app Apple has ever made.

@boe_dye @TheAppleDesign yes, it‘s one of those “you wish you had it sooner once you start using it” I have 600 apps on my phone and the search in Settings is broken, this is extremely handy

@TheAppleDesign What exactly is this shortcut doing? All it seems to do is open up a specific app setting.

@typememetics hot and crazy, sounds like me

After 14 consecutive hours of memetic stress-testing, 6 gallons of cold brew, and one regrettable incident with a permanent marker... We have stabilized the Hot-Crazy Axis Chart™:

@BigMitch_X @kennethnym @theo Here's a list of all the packages I try to maintain: tinyurl.com/6vbhmpy2 And a list of all the packages I've contributed to: github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/…

@BigMitch_X @kennethnym @theo The majority of nixpkgs is maintained by the community. And a big portion of it is automated hence the large number of fresh packages.

Homebrew is a plague and Mac devs deserve better

@qualk37 @uwukko @acxtrila I see, well, leadership may change in the future so maybe then you will consider it.

@DimitarNestorov @uwukko @acxtrila also, the leadership of a project do matter to me, and the Nix Foundation is honestly quite dreadful

why do homebrew maintainers immediately give you attitude whenever you ask them about anything "wHiCh We WiLL nOt" we'll do great without homebrew i guess, thanks for nothing

@qualk37 @uwukko @acxtrila Got it. Consider MacPorts, double the packages brew has. repology.org/repositories/s… But I hope one day you switch to Nix.

@DimitarNestorov @uwukko @acxtrila I'm interested in *alternatives* to brew-style package managers eg apt, pacman, not to nix-stylr package managers

@qualk37 @uwukko @acxtrila Maybe not for you, definitely is for me. Haven't touched brew in a year. Two Macs running without it just fine.

@DimitarNestorov @uwukko @acxtrila nix isn't an alternative

@qualk37 @uwukko @acxtrila Nix

@DimitarNestorov @uwukko @acxtrila which are

@theo You say "I use Homebrew", I say "Hi, let me tell you about Nix"

@BigMitch_X @kennethnym @theo please open GitHub issues so we can get all the packages you're missing in nixpkgs as well

@kennethnym @theo I use nix but many packages arent available on it, so i gotta use homebrew with nix-darwin as well
