I tried it a bit, and while the potential is huge, I mostly just use a cli agent (claude/codex) via Blink shell (iPhone/iPad) with Wireguard for technical work or https://agency.nu for any automations using integration, voice chat etc.

Hey HN! I built ygg to make git worktrees easy to work with day-to-day with multiple Claude Code in the same repo. By running ygg new my-feature, it creates a worktree and a tab in zellij (if available) and you can get right to work. It even copies untracked files, so your .env files etc follow. When done, ygg remove will remove the current worktree and close the zellij tab.

Install via Homebrew: brew tap joch/ygg && brew install ygg

Hope you find it useful! Would love to hear what you think!

I have been using Evernote for over 10 years now. The core note taking experience has never been close to good, but two things have made me stick by it through the years (powered through the nagging for business subscription)

1. Web clipper, which I use as a bookmark replacement, as well as for keeping copies of articles. Great for searching and knowing that I will always have a copy if a site suddenly disappears.

2. PDF ocr / search. I store a lot of receipts, contracts, invoices, manuals and other docs in Evernote, most of which are in PDF. I find the search-in-pdf feature indispensable.

I would love to move to something simpler like Bear (http://www.bear-writer.com), which has a superior writing experience. However, the two points above always make me come back to Evernote.

Edit: Also forgot to include the ability to take unstructured notes and sketches using the Apple Pencil on an iPad, while a bit cumbersome in Evernote, at least works.

- I can play music on any device logged into the account from any other device logged into the account

This is the only reason for me sticking with Spotify instead of Apple Music. It lets me have the Spotify app running on my htpc and I can easily control it from any device running Spotify. No need for AirPlay, Bluetooth etc.

Thank you! There are so many way of implementing GTD and countless posts on parts of everyone's setup, so I just figured I just post my entire setup in one single article.

Did some testing and the user experience is surprisingly great! Didn't think git on iOS could be this easy, but I haven't tried resolving a merge conflict yet.

Looking forward to support for custom git repositories, or even better, private Gitlab servers.

The speed varies with Crashplan as well, but I usually get around a couple of megabits per second at least.

I run it on my home NAS though so it's basically just set-and-forget, meaning that I don't have to remember to keep my Mac online. I just add my photos to the NAS share and it takes care of it from there.

I have been using CrashPlan for backing up my huge photo library, and it has been working great so far.

The main benefit compared to the others is the "unlimited" cloud backup space if you sign up for their cloud service.
