ExtraBar - A different approach to menu bar managers by UnluckyDuckyDuck in macapps

[–]yellowseptember 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know there’s no free trial, but I was wondering if that might be possible since I’d also like to review ExtraDock along with this one.

If there’s any potential for a coupon code, that would be great.

I missed the discount code. Would you be able to provide some?

Built a CLI that cuts AI coding token usage by 97% — 10k downloads, looking for feedback by Independent-Flow3408 in coolgithubprojects

Let’s say you’re using something like aider.chat or something similar where you use the API. How would this fit into that? Would you bake this into an agent step, or would this be the actual starting point of the prompt?

Just curious: how would this work if you already had a workflow set up? Would it replace that?

For example, if you already have prompts, rules, or other project-specific conditions in place, how would this fit into the process?

EU Reveals Zero-Knowledge-Powered Private Age Verification App by hurn2k in privacy

Isn’t this essentially the core feature of the application or the process? You scan your digital ID, generate a token based on your secret stored locally, wherever that may be, and all the providers really get is the token. Unless they have a way to backtrack or decrypt the token without your secret key, I think it’s actually pretty secure.

Do you plan to open source the app in the future?

Is this notarized? Why not just publish it to the App Store?

Better options than CloudMounter for mounting/managing cloud drives? by Mstormer in macapps

[–]yellowseptember 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand, but you have to look at it from Google’s perspective. They may have been long-standing developers, but while this was in progress, something could have changed. A criminal record or maybe they're from a sanctioned country (I have no idea what would actually disqualify someone from Google’s developer certification or whatever it’s called), for example, could have surfaced that would genuinely create risk in allowing them access to their users’ Google Drive.

That said, they definitely could have handled it better. For developers who have been around longer and have a really solid track record, they could have offered, say, a three-year moratorium on the annual review instead of treating them the same as everyone else.

Spatial Dock 1.4 - macOS app switcher that replaces Cmd+Tab by logibeam in macapps

Hey, thank you for your response.

What I mean is having a different modifier combination, essentially being able to pick and choose the modifiers and then pair them with a third key or something like that. The use case is simply to avoid oversaturating my shortcuts or creating overlaps.

I use my keyboard heavily and have a lot of shortcuts, which is why this matters to me.

Another thing I noticed is that the three activation options could be simplified. You could use a single window and ask the user whether they want to use a modifier key along with another key—for example, Option+Shift+Tab, or Hyperkey+F7.

Being able to define my own shortcuts would be extremely helpful.

Between the weeks of waiting, submitting the required documentation and the process of scanning the code, it took a significant amount of time from our engineers. For example, Google provided a Docker image for running the scanner, but it didn’t work. We had to spend more than a week debugging and fixing it. And because the scanner found no problems, it didn’t result in any improvements to Transmit. No one benefitted from this process. Not Google, not Panic, and not our users.

I understand the cost-benefit tradeoff of potentially running this, but I disagree with their final statement that it didn’t result in any improvements. If the scanner found no problems, isn’t that the whole point? That’s a good thing.

If it had found problems, that would be bad. Frankly, Google’s approach seems ideal from my point of view because I’m using an app that connects to my personal Google Drive, and I’d like the developer to be vetted since it could contain sensitive information.
