Hey. Yes. I did vive code one as an exercise yo learn how to publish to apple store.

Listen and transcribe felt like the easiest thing to do.

Distavo.com

The source is open for anyone to use, and the builds are in github.

I found quite interesting that claude didn't help too much on how to publish to SetApp until Fable.


Is that the nvidia spark?


Yes, and a lot of others.

A bit too expensive for a home appliance though, isn't it?


Similar with forgejo. I mirrored all gh then flipped the ones I was using the most. The biggest win was on running apple runners in my mac, so the free gh actions can do other stuff.


Getting better, more reliable and faster CI was such an underappreciated gain (from me at least) when moving to a self-hosted git platform. What used to take ~40 minutes end-to-end (from pushing commit to having release binary ready for three platforms) now takes less than 10 minutes, and seemingly that whole slowdown was causing me more headache that I think I was willing to admit at the time.


Having 'local runable' to compare would be awesome. For example I have a 48G MacBook.


The catalan MEPs also were targeted with Pegasus, and I don't remember the details but at that time the only client were nation states, so Spain was the one to hire the service. Nothing happened.


I don't get it. What is this all about?


If you've ever been developing software for a Mac for any length of time and searched for a weird error, there's an extremely high probability you've ended up on a post written by Quinn that gives you a pointer to how to fix it.


Most likely he will also help you if you file a Tech Support Incident with Apple.


Pretty big space.


What percentage of his earnings does represent?


It's still not modest. There's no way in which a $6 million dollar house is "modest".

Don't try to launder it through lying with percentages. It's not modest.


> Pretty humble/modest for a guy like that.

Modest was qualified. The statement is accurate. Your objection doesn’t make sense.


He is not being modest. Sorry.

> Modest describes someone who is unassuming about their abilities, or something that is limited in size, amount, or reach

Buying a 6 million dollar house is not unassuming.


It is when you have a billion dollars.

It’s all relative.


You need to prove to us that modesty is an absolute quality. Reasonable people would agree that that is a bit extreme ("immodest") and that modesty is relative. (Try cheap instead of modest to see how this works.)

> There's no way in which a $6 million dollar house is "modest".

Relative to his wealth bracket he is being modest but not cheap.


No reasonable person would call a $6m purchase "modest".


I'm reasonable and I say it is. You are looking at a number, I'm looking at possessions. For example, he could have bought the entire building but he is sharing it with two other owners. A modest man.


Modesty has to be relative, otherwise anything beyond the lowest cost to feed a starving person on the planet is beyond modesty.


Bezos' wedding in Venice was modest* too then.


> Relative to his wealth bracket he is being modest but not cheap.

That's moving the goalposts. No one said anything about "relative to his wealth bracket".

And I don't think I have ever heard anyone using a term like "modest house" in proportion to someone's wealth. House-modesty is something people generally use to mean "when compared with other houses in the region".


> No one said anything about "relative to his wealth bracket".

Original post was "modest for a guy like that"


modest is a relative term. its modest compared to most people of his wealth level.


A small 1 bedroom apartment in Manhattan, today, costs a bit under $1 million, on average.


I would argue that a $1mil manhattan 1br isn't modest. You know, you can start to split hairs what modest means. Is that a modest living space? Sure. Is the privilege of living in manhattan immodest? I also think so.

But at least that's within the realm of "modesty". At least there's at least one element of modesty to it. It's not a multi story 6 million dollar home with a floor to ceiling double floor library.


Ironically you’re the one splitting hairs here. It seems clear that your definition of “modest” differs from a few others’. That’s about it, there’s no deeper meaning here. It seems like you’re trying to find disagreement where there is none, and trying to convince others to use the word the way you are familiar with.


I mean is your place modest compared to the average place in a third world country?


Nothing has been learnt from Cambridge analitica?

Is our society this simple?


Our society re-elected a senile fascist corrupt pedophile because eggs were a little pricey.


Why is not relevant?

He hosts, he decides, he buys.

Are we so naive that one can think stakeholders are not involved in decision making?

He had more decision power than most shareholders ever will.
