I use Lulu on my mac. Is it good enough (compared to LittleSnitch)?

Haven’t tried LittleSnitch, but from what I see it’s on par as far as features go. LuLu’s UI could use some improvements, but otherwise it’s perfectly fine for the job.

I would say it's better.

I mean this is not the first time a YC company has stolen an open source project.

Is this the "John Graham-Cumming", ex-CTO of cloudflare?

Yes, that's me.

yes! F9 on his website links to this very blog https://jgc.org/

Them maintaining a page of gotchas is a really cool idea - https://immich.app/cursed-knowledge

> There is a user in the JavaScript community who goes around adding "backwards compatibility" to projects. They do this by adding 50 extra package dependencies to your project, which are maintained by them.

This is a spicy one, would love to know more.

It links to a commit; the removed deps are by GitHub user ljharb.

It looks like a very cool product. Though it's too expensive for a regular guy who treats the cooking as a chore.

Do you use the WhatsApp cloud API? Isn't that expensive for a $3/yr price?

The app sends WhatsApp texts through Twilio's API. It's not exactly the same pricing model, but so far is approximately the same as SMS costs

But isn't the OP talking about local network while Jean-Baptiste Kempf is talking about the internet?

The Ink & Switch guys always have the best-est of ideas!

WSL is a landmine of bad design. I lost all my data once, and that incident made me switch to a Mac.

Here's how you can lose all your data - and Microsoft engineers won’t care: https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/8992 https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/9830 https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/9049#issuecomment-26...

I read your issue, and it's not so different from `sudo rm -rf /` as opposed to an actual design flaw.

`sudo rm -rf /` requires you to be a superuser or provide a password, whereas running `wsl --unregister` does not require elevated privileges.

I've hit real data loss bugs in WSL, as well— files disappearing, sometimes even rendering the WSL guest unbootable.

Mac IS the Sotate of the Art at the developer experience. The only annoyance was the virtualisation on Arm but having UTM/Multipass/Virttualbox now, it is the best. If you are up to too many containers, a linux box would be more preferable.

Not everyone wants to be a CEO. Some people just wanna write some good code and contribute to the world.
