In the latest type-fest version, you can now create integer range types in TypeScript. This can be useful for only accepting a certain range of numbers in a function.

A useful feature I added to Dato (my menu bar calendar app) recently:

You can create exclusion rules. So if the event title matches a certain pattern (including regex), it would be excluded from Dato.

There are 100 slots available on the TestFlight for ActionBuddy, the app I made because @viticci wanted a Shortcuts action to get the iPhone Lock Screen state 😆 There are a bunch of other fun actions I've added, and more to come. https://testflight.apple.com/join/8yMFEL6g

Added some more interactivity. You can now skip to the next task directly in the widget. And quickly add a new task.

Now supports setting custom text and background color: https://mastodon.social/@sindresorhus/111138473246947094

You can even set the colors from the Shortcuts app. For example, use it to make it a status indicator for something.

C is to programming what climate change is to Earth: widely acknowledged as problematic, yet inexplicably tolerated by the masses.

Almost all the negative reviews on my apps with widgets or shortcut actions are that they don't show up in the widget picker / Shortcuts app. This is because of an iOS bug. The user has to restart the device for them to show up. It's just boggles my mind that Apple has still not fixed this. This has been going on for at least 2 iOS releases.

I expect AI will (soonish) make it feasible to rewrite a lot of important C/C++ projects in safer languages like Rust and Swift.

Tip: Copying an image from Safari and pasting it into the FB Messenger app pastes the URL the image was copied from, not the image. Solution: Get my Shareful app, right-click an image in Safari, click "Share", and then the "Copy" action. Pasting should work fine now.

@sindresorhus Hey! I wanted to report a bug in Dato...

When you have a display to the right the Dato window it’s not shown properly.

Here's a screenshot of the bug and the setting where it happens. As you can see when it's shown “below menu bar item” if it doesn't have enough space to the right it just doesn’t show properly.
