This is a really cool idea. I’m a little put off with the idea that my camera is always watching me but the thought behind it is really cool.

I kind of feel the same way, but I want to try it. I’m pretty sure I have a spare webcam lying around, it could be interesting to have a “trusted” sensor for this app so that I can still keep my main webcam locked down.

I've been using Fastmail for several years now, I remember when I first said something about it on here I got a negative response about how Fastmail doesn't do something correctly or something, and now most of the comment replies are praising Fastmail. I still like it, it's just interesting how fickle things are here.

Ironically Microsoft just had an outage a couple of days ago.


> Apple could not verify “whosthere” is free of malware that may harm your Mac or compromise your privacy.

Couldn't run it on macOS Tahoe. I believe this requires me lowering the security to allow it, which is something I would rather not doing.


This is basically how every custom app works on Mac. You have to go to Settings -> Security & Privacy and click "Allow whosthere"

Would it help to get it on the "official" homebrew, instead of a custom tap/cask? Might try to do an application for that somewhere in the upcoming weeks.

this can be fixed by

xattr -c `which whosthere`


It just means the app isn't signed.

Seems like the U.S. uses metric for most of the important areas and just lets everyone continue to use imperial, whatever they want everywhere else.

Meh. I was a Mootools connoisseur back in the day and saddened how jQuery became more popular.

I’m glad JavaScript has evolved to the point we don’t need jQuery anymore.


I had the UltraSharp 40” similar to this, I loved it until I went to readjust it, apparently tilted it wrong, and the screen blanked. :(

rate-limit-remaining would be nicer than ratelimit-remaining

Yeah, I realized recently you have to be more intentional for things you want. You don’t necessarily have to host it but you need to reach out and find things going on where there are people.

I had similar experiences playing the computer in Tzar: Burden of the Crown. It’s not chess but it is a strategy game.
