sunnybeetroot··on What does it mean to “write like you talk”?
I agree it feels silly, even though we look like we’re talking to ourselves when we’re on a phone call in front of others. It is bizarre.
sunnybeetroot··on Expanding Swift's IDE Support
Thanks for your great work on sweetpad. I’ve always been a bit curious where the name came from though.
sunnybeetroot··on The cult of vibe coding is dogfooding run amok
This entirely depends on the product. If it’s your own personal blog, then for sure no need to read the code, but a change in a banking architecture would be irresponsible to not have an understanding of the actual code change.
sunnybeetroot··on The cult of vibe coding is dogfooding run amok
An expert doesn’t deploy code without reviewing it, at that point they’re vibe engineering not vibe coding.
sunnybeetroot··on Author of "Careless People" banned from saying anything negative about Meta
Maybe it’s a question for the third date?
sunnybeetroot··on Apple approves driver that lets Nvidia eGPUs work with Arm Macs
That is no longer true. https://bluebubbles.app/ Well… it’s not exactly no longer true, you do need an Apple VM but it doesn’t have to be the end device.
sunnybeetroot··on Samsung Magician disk utility takes 18 steps and two reboots to uninstall
Is my understand correct that if I install an app with homebrew cask and then uninstall it everything should be gone, or not even with the homebrew cask would everything be uninstalled?

Pear cleaner is the successor, you’re welcome :)

sunnybeetroot··on Anthropic Update on Session Limits
I love the interface of Claude Code but with these limits I’d be willing to use Codex. Anyone know if it’s possible to use Claude Code with other provider subscriptions (not API usage costs)?
sunnybeetroot··on Push events into a running session with channels
Mind sharing a link?
sunnybeetroot··on Hundreds of Millions of iPhones Can Be Hacked With a New Tool Found in the Wild
How is increasing by 1 every year random? :P
sunnybeetroot··on X is selling existing users' handles
Yes, the other person is mistaken, Google does not repurpose accounts.
sunnybeetroot··on X is selling existing users' handles
Yes, that’s why I don’t recommend people use a custom domain when signing up for accounts given they can eventually be used by someone else. Use email providers that don’t allow your email address to be reused ie gmail, apple
sunnybeetroot··on X is selling existing users' handles
I disagree, there are security implications if an account was previously linked to someone but then it’s repurposed allowing for fraudulent social engineering use to occur. It’s like as if Gmail gave your email to someone else after a while. They don’t because it’s a bad idea.
sunnybeetroot··on Show HN: Remotely use my guitar tuner
It’s a chromatic tuner, there is no other setting
sunnybeetroot··on Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (March 2026)
Does anything similar like this already exist? Ie how do drone shows get planned today?
sunnybeetroot··on Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (March 2026)
Hey this looks cool but wanted to highlight a bug. I opened the bot, tapped on sample video and I got the “translating a sample Turkish drama…” message twice. Then it said “your first translation is ready” so I press view in the app and the recent list shows the duplication. It says the first one is ready but the second was in progress. I close the app and see a “our whale friend is gathering video” with a progress bar. So I guess it’s not ready? Then I get a failure message which looks like the second video failed? Anyway, cool idea but it seems buggy and I think the app UX could be simplified, good luck!

Amazing landing for statphone, mind if I ask if it’s using any sort of UI library?
sunnybeetroot··on Agent Safehouse – macOS-native sandboxing for local agents
It’s nice to debug Apple platform projects immediately
sunnybeetroot··on Agent Safehouse – macOS-native sandboxing for local agents
Lume is also a nice wrapper around it
sunnybeetroot··on Agent Safehouse – macOS-native sandboxing for local agents
1 limitation is Apple Virtualisation does not offer USB passthrough for connecting to iPhones for iOS development.
sunnybeetroot··on Agent Safehouse – macOS-native sandboxing for local agents
Yes, anything Apple platform development
sunnybeetroot··on Xcode 26.3 – Developers can leverage coding agents directly in Xcode
Refactoring works half the time, Android Studio is much more stable for basic developer tooling.
sunnybeetroot··on Stepping down as Mockito maintainer after ten years
I totally agree, I’m being tongue in cheek, but given how poor some codebases can be, the more precautions the better ie compilation failures on non-mocked functions.
sunnybeetroot··on Stepping down as Mockito maintainer after ten years
Credentials end up existing in prod because the person used Mochito and didn’t override the function for providing credentials :’c
sunnybeetroot··on Stepping down as Mockito maintainer after ten years
Subclasing and overriding is not a good idea. There is no compilation failure if you forget to override a function which can lead to flakey tests at best and prod data impact at worst.

sunnybeetroot··on Two billion email addresses were exposed
Any situation in which you fail to renew them.

Thank you for expanding. Sure you can prepay up to a certain extent. Eventually your domain will be available to others for purchase and therefore your accounts will become vulnerable. Maybe this isn’t an issue if in the worst situation you’re not around but if this could cause chaos for your friends and family I would suggest taking it into account.

What’s your plan for when you no longer own your custom domain (think bus factor)? Someone else register your domain and now has access to all your accounts.
