Oh and it’s #opensource, because I wouldn’t trust an app that talks to my #YubiKey that wasn’t!

My app got published! If you’ve got a @Yubico #YubiKey and you want to quickly get OATH codes from your #macOS status bar it’s the app for you! Check out Yoath on the App Store.

who knew it took 10 years of being a programmer before you can say "I don't know" in a meeting without feeling that hot flash of panic

[Jack Howard @JackHoward]

Course he fuckin did. At this point nothing surprises.

[Rob Anderson @Robbb_J]

Pretty cool to see your own app's update roll through

App Store review times are so much faster than I remember. I submitted last night and it was approved 2am 🎉

I’ve been really enjoying Arc Browser this past week, it feels really fresh and actually taking web browsing in a better direction. It’s nice to not center everything around search and have a place for your things instead. Though it did take a while to get all my tabs in order.

How close are we to with GPT to that episode of Black Mirror where she recreates her dead boyfriend based on social media presence?

I found a gross hack today to host a Single Page App on GitHub pages with no fallback URLs. You can specify a 404.html file which is served for “not-found” pages, with a http 404 code.

[Rob Anderson @Robbb_J]

It’s not ideal, but for a site which we’re archiving it means we can turn off all servers and host for free on GitHub pages. Then if anyone has links to the old site they still work.

Current train of development has lead me to the USB CCID spec 😰

Today's woe with usb x swift was trying to create a binary payload to send over USB by mutating a "Data" struct in Swift 😢

I have been really liking GitHub's (experimental?) command palette (⌘+K), its really quite useful for navigating between and within repos.

Can't wait to try VanillaJs on my next project
