zlies··on Native Instant Space Switching on macOS
Honestly, this animation in one of the best things about spaces in macOS. I use the four finger gesture to switch spaces all the time and it make the spaces feature so much more natural than all other window managers I’ve used before

That would be awesome
zlies··on Show HN: Smart email filters to unfuck your email
A few years ago, I did the same and started unsubscribing from newsletters as soon as they arrived. Now I keep only emails in my inbox that require action - everything else I archive or delete.
zlies··on Sprinkling self-doubt on ChatGPT
I had "Use always two space tab size" because I was tired of long tab widths when code was returned. However, even when it wasn't about programming, I was reminded that the tab size would be two spaces ...

Did you not use any thermal paste at all, or did you just forget to mention it in your post?

zlies··on Show HN: AirAP AirPlay server – AirPlay to an iOS Device
I‘m thinking about an app on the watch, that acts as an airplay (video) receiver, so I can stream and watch videos on my wrist while cooking

zlies··on Show HN: ts-remove-unused – Remove unused code from your TypeScript project
You're totally right. I just quickly scanned the readme and had expected a tool that only check the files. But yes, it's a bad idea in general to run random cli programs without checking them in detail
zlies··on Show HN: ts-remove-unused – Remove unused code from your TypeScript project
You should switch the default to not delete any files and modify/remove the files only with some flag (--dry-run=false, --rm, --delete, etc). I just deleted all files accidentally in a monorepo :D Luckily I didn't had any uncommitted changes and could recover using git

zlies··on Accidental database programming
I'm trying to achieve something similar with SignalDB: https://signaldb.js.org/ It uses signals for reactivity and is framework agnostic with a mongodb-like query syntax

zlies··on Show HN: SignalDB – Reactive Local JavaScript Database
The design is heavily inspired by Minimongo. I used Meteor extensively in the past, but since moving away from it, I've missed the simplicity of reactive data handling on the client-side through Minimongo. Now that signals have regained popularity, I've begun developing SignalDB as a versatile alternative that can be integrated with any framework, not just Meteor
