I know the effect makes more sense on the iPhone Duo because of the dual screen, but I wanted something similar on the MacBook: the lid looks like a portal to the real screen. The only app I found that does this charges for it, so it felt like a good thing to ask Astra to build, and I made it OSS. Visual improvements or feature ideas are welcome.

Since it appears to be unmaintained i started my own version (yes, thanks to some LLMs work) and i am quite happy with it. It appears to have gained a lot more features than i initially thought but there it is.

I've built a website where you can browse PC parts from Amazon without distractions and clutter. Most people, like myself, value more information and a clear way to find products than being bombarded with irrelevant stuff like "hey buy this item too" or "people also buy this" Sometimes you need to scroll too far down just to see actual specs. So I decided to make it simple, just a list of products and some filters to find what I need. If you value a distraction free, no clutter way to find what you need, check it out: https://findpcpart.com In the future, I plan to extend it and provide more…
Ever had a multi-tenant SaaS app where the only thing stopping Customer A from seeing Customer B's invoices is a Where TenantId == clause someone remembered to write? In this deep dive I build real tenant isolation into EF Core 10 - two real tenants with real registration, login and invite flows (no dev-token shortcuts), a named global query filter that scopes every query automatically, and a SaveChangesAsync override that stamps TenantId on every insert so it's never left unset. I also show the one gotcha that makes EF Core 10 worth the upgrade for this: named query filters, so tenant isol…

We have a first play of the forthcoming Tomb Raider remake and speak with its developers. Can they improve on the gameplay without losing what made the 1996 original such a classic? We join Lara Croft in St Francis’ Folly – inspired by the Unesco-listed monasteries of Meteora in Greece – as the light shines through the cracked ceiling and a flock of bats glide across the vast ruins below. When Lara leaps down to the monastery’s crumbling pillared courtyard, it becomes clear that these screeching, leathery creatures aren’t just set dressing. As they lurch towards her with unpredictab…

It’s macOS and Ghostty for now, the document lives in scroll back and we use Apple Events to ask Ghostty jump around the scroll back instead of re-re…
