tip

Shameless plug. You can use a programmable tooltip for macOS, so you don't have to remember all the shortcuts for these workflows. Please see https://github.com/tanin47/tip

I have been using a single plain text file as my note for 6 months now. I'm using vim mode on sublime though. Switching to a plain text file that syncs to GitHub feels more permanent. I've gone through several note apps (e.g. Evernote, Joplin) and I never really migrated the notes to the new app... Anyway, I have my own apps to share. They might be useful to others. * I use https://github.com/tanin47/git-notes to sync my note file to a bit repo * A programmable tooltip on Mac. You can program it to send the selected text on any app to your note file: https://github.com/tanin47/tip/wiki/Universal-Tip,-a-program...

I'm working on a programmable tooltip on Mac OS X (https://github.com/tanin47/tip), as in you can write your own script (ruby/python/bash) to provide tooltip items. It's my first real app on Mac OS X. I started the app before the covid crisis though. But these days I have so much time to iterate on it...

Yes, I'm still working on the mouse/trackpad configuration app, which will make Tip usage really convenient. Please leave a comment on this issue: https://github.com/tanin47/tip/issues/28 I'll notify you when the app is released to private beta. Current progress: I'm building the setting UI for configuring mouse button and trackpad.

I just started at Stripe last year, and I found myself perform many mechanical tasks like: * Converting seconds-from-epoch to a human readable date * Select an id and pull info about it At first, I tried to perform these mechanical tasks with some crazy shortcuts. But remembering shortcuts for every little flow is heavy. Eventually, I've built a programmable tooltip on Mac OS X for these mechanical tasks. I'd love for you to try it! https://github.com/tanin47/tip

I'm working on a native programmable tooltip that can be used with any Mac OS app. You can select a text on any app and hit the configured shortcut to activate tooltip. I program this tooltip to speed up several of my workflows like opening a JIRA ticket , opening a file in IntelliJ from a stacktrace, and show humand-readable time from seconds from epoch. The tooltip has been very helpful to me, and it might be useful to you. Check it out: https://github.com/tanin47/tip

Hello HN! I'm Tanin, and I've made a universal tooltip to help me eliminate clicking and typing. It has been working well for me, and I'd like to share it with the world. Tip is a universal tooltip that shows useful info at your fingertip. You simply select a text (in any app) and hit the short keys to activate the tooltip with useful info/action. "Useful info/action" is programmed by you using your fav programming language, and this works with every Mac app. I have 2 examples that I use frequently: * Convert seconds/millis to human readable time: https://media.giphy.com/media/f952ZuRG9kqCoxGt8v/giphy.gif *Select an error stackrace line and open that file with that line in IntelliJ/Github: https://media.giphy.com/media/JSYWptFElQmDJOXzXO/giphy.gif You can customize it fit with your workflow. Any feedback is very very welcome, and I hope t
