274. Boundless Sky 中
The cover was shot one evening in Shenzhen, just after the rain, when the sky was especially clear. The building is called Haikuo Tiankong Yaju, and you could even see Baidu in the distance.

Trending Tools
wong2 made a handy tracker for Codex usage limit resets
https://codex-resets.com/
Pretty funny. Codex usage limits seem to reset whenever @thsottiaux announces one on X, almost like he has a button in his hand. There is no fixed schedule and no changelog, so this tool watches his posts and lets you know when a reset happens. Haha. Lately I haven’t been able to use up my Codex allowance at all.
Trees: a beautiful file tree rendering library
https://trees.software/
The file tree rendering looks really good. I like simple, beautiful things like this. If you’re building a file tree for an editor sidebar, this is worth studying.
Bark: an open-source tool for pushing messages to your own iPhone
https://github.com/Finb/Bark
An open-source and free notification app built on APNs, so it doesn’t add extra battery drain. It also supports advanced iOS notification features including grouping, custom icons and sounds, time-sensitive notifications, critical alerts, and more.
WhatCable: find out what your USB-C cable can actually do
https://www.whatcable.uk/
This tool clearly tells you what a USB-C cable can do, including cable speed, charging limits, and connected devices. You can name each cable and have it track real-world performance over time, making it easier to see why a cable charges slowly or can’t drive a display. Nice idea, though fairly niche.

A site collecting beautifully designed Mac apps
https://macapp.supply/
The site itself is nicely designed, and the Mac apps it features all feel polished. There’s a lot here for me to learn from.
