athorax··on Yabai – A tiling window manager for macOS
I have the exact same setup, I have to maybe restart the service 2-3x a week. Unsurprisingly, outlook is often the culprit of needing to restart the service

# Reload yabai ctrl + shift + alt -r : launchctl kickstart -k "gui/${UID}/homebrew.mxcl.yabai"

athorax··on Atlassian Acquires Loom
Who is asking for this?

  As Atlassian consolidates Loom into its platform, engineers will soon be able to visually log issues in Jira, leaders will use videos to connect with employees at scale, sales teams will send tailored video updates to clients, and HR teams will onboard new employees with personalized welcome videos
athorax··on Ural Airlines is preparing to fly a stranded Airbus A320 out of a field
The solution is so obvious!

  1. Lift plane up real high with helicopters
  2. Start up engines
  3. Detach
  4. Either fly home or ride to Valhalla

athorax··on First-party Sony studios are reportedly “uncomfortable” with pivot towards GaaS
Side note, I got super excited when I saw the name xfire. Hadn't thought about it in years, but it was such an awesome tool before steam and other services has integrated chat + overlays. Apparently this new site has nothing to do with the original https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xfire
athorax··on We forced our company to allow work from home again
...and then everyone cheered?

But seriously, this just doesn't add up. I could see the company folding once they realize that they were dependent on the tribal knowledge of those leaving, but claiming to not get any applications is absurd.

athorax··on Instead of collaborating or supporting me, Google stole my idea
"be evil whenever possible" - Google, maybe (probably)
athorax··on New world record with an electric racing car: From 0 to 100 in 0.956 seconds

athorax··on How to start a Go project in 2023
The article mentions GOW[0] for a file watcher. If anyone is looking for a non-go specific one, I've really enjoyed reflex[1]. Makes it super easy to reload different parts of a project based on what type of file has changed.

athorax··on Legend of Zelda game sells 10M copies in three days
I've been playing through BotW again on CEMU since my Wii U died awhile back. I'm blown away by how amazing it looks and how stable it runs on my PC. There are some minor issues with completing certain puzzles that require motion controls, but so far I found easy workarounds for everything

athorax··on Show HN: AI explanations for other people’s code
There are tons of explanations out there for how that code works, it's not super surprising it can explain it since it is most likely regurgitating it verbatim. I'd be interested to see the result with a less common bit of BF code though
