I open-sourced NotifBridge: a Swift demo forwarding iPhone notifications to Mac over BLE using iOS 26.5 AccessoryNotifications + AccessoryTransportExtension.Includes macOS CoreBluetooth receiver, HPKE decrypt path, XcodeGen projects, and E2E test script. github.com/shinvou/NotifBrid…

Yo party people, not moving from here yet, but I’m not on mastodon also. Gimme a follow. @shinvou@mastodon.social

Can I please have time-based shortcuts on macOS? Or do they exist and I'm to stupid to find the settings?

So I had a very simple app in the iOS App Store which is basically a climbing grade converter. I released it january 2018 and it was feature complete with v1. Apple removed it since it wasn't updated since the release. I don't get this business decision and am honestly fed up.

TIL I lerned you can shift-select tabs in Chrome.

(Also try to experience as many different parts as possible of what computer science has to offer. I went from iOS tweaks to learning RE to learning asm to macOS kernel land to macOS apps to security and now two a completely different field. Never stop growing.)

So my whole career is basically based on me playing an online game - and being curious. The apperently less meaningful and abstract seeming things can change your world. My lesson learned from this is: do what you want to, be yourself and never underestimate anything ever.

I felt so proud about installing my first tweak that just displayed an alert when opening an app (this was sample code - I didn’t understand a single line of the code). Thinking back to this day - so much changed, I gained so much knowledge and continue to learn more everyday.

This then led me to get into coding. Just because me being curious on how to achieve this (creating jailbreaks tweaks) myself althought I never wrote a singe line of code before. And boy - starting with Obj-C and slowly understanding runtime modification was quite a journey.

Some time later I got an iPod Touch (2G) and a friend installed Cydia on it. It felt so crazy to install themes. Later I installed my first tweak Stacks (called smth. like that) by @stroughtonsmith and after some time enjoying using tweaks I wanted to know how to do it myself.

It’s really crazy how seemingly small things can define your whole future. My interest in IT probably started because I set up a flyff pserver for me an my friends (no code written, just using tutorials and scripts by others) - but seeing terminal output felt so hacky back then.

Is there some visually appealing cheet shet app for macOS especially for programmers to organize/save long commands with notes and stuff? /cc @stroughtonsmith

That’s what I searched for! Thanks!

It was some weirdl complex code (can’t remember what it did) and I guess the author also wrote a blog acrticlr about it.

Does someone remember this weird c code snippet floating around not long time ago? It looked like a printf statement or something?

For iOS security researchers a M1 Mac with frida is now the most powerful and easy way to go!

Wallmart for stock iOS. 🙃
