What it does
LaunchControl gives launchd the interface it always deserved. Manage all your macOS background services visually — with live stats, automation rules, and a built-in plist editor.
LaunchControl gives macOS's most capable background task system the interface it never had. See every service on your machine, control it with a click, and stop writing launchctl commands by hand. Start, stop, schedule, restart on crash — launchd can do all of it. But the only interface Apple ships is launchctl : cryptic terminal commands and hand-edited XML plists. LaunchControl fixes that completely. One window for every background service on your Mac — from Homebrew daemons to your own automation scripts — with all the controls you actually need. All LaunchAgents and Daemons in a navigable folder tree with live RUNNING · STOPPED · LOADED badges per service. CPU, GPU, RAM, VRAM, memory,…from isaac12x.github.io

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

Homebrew 6.0.0▲1,481Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
