Made a Mac app that puts live meters for anything in your menu bar. Battery, CPU, watts, fan speed, timers, even your own numbers 13 faces to pick from, including a needle gauge, an LCD readout, a row of pixel hearts and a laser sword

I wanted to know which posts people read, who links here and how often the ChatGPT and Claude crawlers stop by, without a single cookie or anyone else's script nginx logs + one tiny beacon + a daily rollup covers all of it

every Mac app I make now ships two ways from one codebase: Developer ID + Sparkle on my own site, and sandboxed on the Mac App Store two XcodeGen targets, one compile flag, two entitlements files. and HomeKit is App Store only on macOS, which surprised me

made my blog readable by AI agents. every post has a .md version, asking for text/markdown on the normal URL gets you markdown, and there's an llms.txt mostly a few files and a few lines of nginx

finally moved my old blog off the Linode it's lived on since 2012. Ubuntu 10.04, Postgres 8.4, and an HTTPS cert that expired in 2016 without me noticing it's a ~300 line Bun static site now, and all 358 old URLs still work

yesterday was a lot. pre-auth RCE in PHP itself, a poisoned LiteLLM release with valid provenance, Railway env vars stolen, a CVSS 10 in every GitLab since 2014, and a CA whose private key was literally the number 4 wrote up the technical details on all of it

My music kept crackling every few days and the fix was always "sudo killall coreaudiod" in Terminal. So I made it a menu bar button AudioKick restarts Core Audio in one click and picks your music back up. Free for Mac

there's a fake pizza place, 3 fake auto shops and a fake gym your agent can call for free at callforme.tel/demo ask claude for brake quotes from all 3 shops and leave out what car you drive. each shop asks for it mid-call and your agent answers

"sit on hold with the airline and call me when a person picks up" works as one tool call now. it gets through the phone menu, waits out the hold music, then patches you in
