New comment by vanyle in "Apple rejected my dictation app for using the accessibility API"

Centralized package repositories like the one provided by canonical have similar limitations to the Mac App Store, you need to get your app reviewed, you need to push updates to each platform where you distribute your app and in exchange you get visibility.

I'd argue that installing and updating apps on MacOS is simpler than on Linux distros because most apps have built-in auto-updates (or you can just drag the app to the applications folder) instead of having to rely on snap / apt / insert your package manager which may a lot of outdated and unmaintained packages and apps.

New comment by vanyle in "Raylib v6.0"

vanyle — Thu, 23 Apr 2026 18:09:22 +0000

I tried raylib and I love it, but I need to build a lot from scratch (like most game frameworks). But I also really dislike engines as I prefer making games with code rather than a GUI. I am currently working on a framework/engine hybrid called vectarine [1] where I make my game with code while still enjoying niceties of an engine like hot reloading, integrated debugging, asset management etc.

New comment by vanyle in "Show HN: A native macOS client for Hacker News, built with SwiftUI"

vanyle — Fri, 20 Feb 2026 23:58:21 +0000

Having built crossplatform native app supporting MacOS app, I have never gotten notarization to work as I'm not using xcode a lot.

I'm curious, how much does it cost? Is it per build or a subscription? How do you make it work financially for an open-source project?

New comment by vanyle in "How I block all 26M of your curl requests"

The git seems to only contain the build of the website with no source code.

The author is probably using git to push the content to the hosting server as an rsync alternative, but there does not seem to be much leaked information, apart from the url of the private repository.

New comment by vanyle in "Zig feels more practical than Rust for real-world CLI tools"

vanyle — Tue, 23 Sep 2025 19:42:12 +0000

For CLI tools, the program usually only executes for a few seconds and then returns. In this context, you don't even need arena allocators or any memory management at all. You can write the tool in C with malloc and let the OS free the memory at the end without worry.

You could argue with the reasoning that C feels more practical than Zig for real-world CLI tools.

The argument provided by the author feels a bit besides the point.

As a workaround, you can add a transparent border (border: 2px solid transparent) around the skewed element to have antialiasing (at least on chrome)

New comment by vanyle in "Choosing Nim out of a crowded market for systems programming languages"

vanyle — Sat, 26 Nov 2022 03:03:36 +0000

Yup, but it's more similar to "express" in Node than to a full framework like Django. I have plans to build a library on top of prologue for the ORM and database interaction and other cool features of Django that prologue currently lacks.
