Can the Dock Star docks be docked to the right edge of the screen with autohiding?

Are you talking about using AI for coding?

It also has some useful features like auto hide tabs and auto blur tabs + Tree style tabs.

One of the recent updates of Waterfox has fixed Raindrop.io's Firefox extension not working in Waterfox.

Raindrop.io — All in One Bookmark Manager For your inspiration, read later, media and stuff

Need to test Raindrop.io then. It's the reason I stopped using Waterfox.

I don't need anything else showing in my Mac dock.

File manager: Bloom
Notes: NotePlan

Code editor: Zed
Browser: Helium

This is with Sidebar app via Setapp. Lets us right click on specific app icons in the dock and set them to never show.

Got Claude to update a macOS clipboard manager app for me.

The second item will be active by default so I can just hit return to paste it. Also, just press numbers to paste an item instead of Command-pasting.

Try the compact tab mode a try.

Not sure what they have done, but Helium browser feels so light and fast.

I also like the compact tab mode.

Vibe coded my first Mac app for quickly taking notes after hovering on the notch.

Tried Unfriction. Didn't like it. Looks like it's vibe-coded. Marketing is great though.

unfriction.app

Antinote, SideNotes and Unclutter are better imo.

@amerpie.lol Cost aside, which is better?

AppCleaner
Pearcleaner
CleanMyMac's uninstaller

Installed Linux Mint on a 8yo ThinkPad Yoga X1 and it is running smoothly.

The funny thing is Microsoft said it's not possible to update to Windows 11. I wiped Windows completely, installed Linux, installed Windows 11 in a virtual machine and it runs fine.

Opera browser looks pretty nice.

Vibe coded Vim-like single key shortcuts in Safari using Hammerspoon.

c: close tab
z: go back
x: go forward
a: switch to previous tab
s: switch to next tab
u: copy URL
v: view source
r: reload page

Need to test some more. Atm, some of the above characters are getting eaten up when typing fast.

If Bricks had something like this, I would have retired by now 😔

Guided Claude Code to build a premium add-on plugin for Bricks builder that adds custom query types for outputting terms with hierarchical support nested in a taxonomy loop.

Finished testing it.

Going to spend tomorrow going through the code and then release it.

Switched from rice to quinoa as staple food.

Stopped using sugar/sweets, processed foods and dairy.

Been walking for 45 min every day for the past 4 days.
