Ex-Apple macOS/Xcode dev here. I just downloaded your app and ran it through hopper. There is a LOT of embedded Apple Script. I would never run an app like this with SIP disabled or without an active network blocker. Your app requires

I use a series of stop hook [0] scripts. For example, I have a script [1] that forces Claude to execute tests whenever code files are changed. The stop hook runs automatically and will force Claude to continue working until the script passe

This is awesome. I've was a dev on the C++ team at MS in the 90s and was sure that RTTI was the closest the language would ever get to having a true reflection system.

I'm not your bro. Your target audience are the people who post about “technology” on Reddit; not the hacker news crowd. The fact that your ToS has copy and paste disabled, and that you share nothing about the project makes this entir

Heh... okay. No one in their right mind will touch this.

Where are the smart contracts?

by LatencyKills 7mo ago
The ToS clearly states that any loses related to bugs or problems with smart contracts are the responsibility of the user. So people give you money and they're out of luck if your systems don't work correctly... as in 'trust

I got a chuckle the last time I used Claude's /insights command. The number one thing in the report was, "User frequently stops processing to provide corrections." ;-)

Is that the correct link? That's a blog post from 2024 about the git cli.

I spent most of my time working on Visual Studio (in the Boston time frame) so we got to interact with pretty much every team. I absolutely hated interacting with the Windows team. Everything was a fight for no reason. As I said above, ev

We have differing experiences, which shouldn't be surprising. My example explicitly referred to someone who was a good engineer who enjoyed the QA role. This might have been an Apple/MS thing, but we always had very technical QA p

by LatencyKills 7mo ago
Exactly. I spent 20 years split between MS and Apple. Some of the best people I ever worked with were in QA. One guy in particular was an extremely talented engineer who simply didn't enjoy the canonical "coding" role; what h

Um... you might want to look at my profile. In addition to working at MS and Apple for two decades (where I touched everything from firmware, ring-0, and ring-3), I was on the team that created SoftICE [0]: the first commercial ring-0 debug

Uh huh. The person who gets confused by how co_wait() actually works and thinks that coroutines are "intimidating" wrote frameworks that I would have used to build our C++ compiler. Do you not understand that cl.exe doesn't u

I get what you’re saying, but you kicked off this thread like an expert — even though you knew you were talking to someone who helped build the very thing you’re critiquing. It’s pretty clear you’ve never built a production-grade async stat

You are describing a single async step, not a state machine. "Create a promise, set it when done", that's one state. A real async state machine has N states with transitions, branching, error handling, and cleanup between the

My response specifically addressed the question of why you might choose one option over the other. Do you believe that std::future is the better option?
112.
by LatencyKills 7mo ago
std::future doesn't give you a state machine. You get the building blocks you have to assemble into one manually. Coroutines give you the same building blocks but let the compiler do the assembly, making the suspension points visible i

Well said.

Do you believe my brief overview of the problem will help Claude identify the specific undocumented functions required for my solution? Is that how you think data gets fed back into models during training?

by LatencyKills 7mo ago
Sorry, "now it does", what?

by LatencyKills 7mo ago
Unless you worked on the macOS content server directly you’d have no idea that my solution was even possible. That fact that Claude skipped over all the obvious solutions is why I used the word novel.
118.
by LatencyKills 7mo ago
Because you can't control what the content server is doing. SCK doesn't care if you only need a small section of a window: it performs multiple full window memory copies that aren't a problem for normal screen recorders... bu

No it didn't. Like I said... it may have gotten something that worked but there is no way Claude got it to work while supporting multi-spaces, multi-desktops, and using under 2% cpu utilization. My solution can display app window conte

Thanks! I've been doing a lot of work on a laptop screen (I normally work on an ultrawide) and got tired of constantly switching between windows to find the information I need. I've also added the ability to create a picture-in-pi
