Nice. I think there will be a cottage industry of porting every Mac menu bar utility to Claude. I can't use this until it doesn't show seconds. A MM:SS timer is tolerable when it's in my menu bar, but a ticking timer…
I would say it is up to republicans to do something about the clowns they appointed into high level office, and it’s up to democrats to continue their pattern of not appointing clowns like this into high level office.
Someone is working on a fork that is optimized for M5, might be worth a look: https://github.com/Swival/ds4-m5
This is a great post, but am I the only person who thinks the AI-generated images are brilliant? They are haunting and disturbing in a good-art kind of way -- if I saw them in a gallery I would think the artist has real…

I re-read this every 5 years or so. It certainly covers a lot of ground on which literary tastes have changed, so it might not hold up for everyone, but what keeps me coming back is how much goddamn fun it is. Even if I…
I'm tinkering with The Tüül (https://github.com/incidentist/the_tuul), a site for making a decent karaoke video from any song in about 10 minutes. The members of my monthly karaoke group have been using it for the last…
Nice to see this project on HN, and nice so many familiar webOS names on this board. I worked on Word Ace and the Card Ace games back in the day, and got back into playing around with my Pre and TouchPad a few years…
Rabe is an excellent playwright -- I'll have to check this out. Movies adapted from stage plays are great places to find good dialog, in general. Other examples: A Thousand Clowns, Angels in America.
"The Image" by Daniel Boorstin. It's kind of about what living in a world of mass-produced images does to our sense of space, time and reality. So much of our experience is of things that were created by other people to…
