On: Apple Photos app corrupts images

[CtrlAlt]

I’ve never had this bad of corruption. But not surprised.

Personally, I have seen a row of green pixels on the top or bottom + vertically flipped photos on import.

Good sleuthing!

On: Ask HN: Mint is shutting down. What are your alternative preferences and why?

I've been using Copilot for almost 2 years. I'd give it a +1.

I switched from YNAB since I wasn't really following the YNAB methodology and really just wanted something simpler (set a budget for a category & tell me at the end of the month how I did, and review my transactions for the day).

Some downsides:

* Some of the integrations are flaky (AMEX gets logged out almost every day, making me sign in again). Probably not copilot's fault, more like the plaid API.

* Meh about the yearly subscription. But hey, 95 dollars a year for something I use on a semi-regular basis isn't bad.

Seriously digging the aesthetic! Amazing job.

Our team usually uses LucidCharts but we'll give this a try. A basic folder system would go a long way in helping to keep my charts organized.

yabai - Tiling window manager https://github.com/koekeishiya/yabai

I use the basic feature set so it works well on my work laptop (no need to disable SIP).

+1. Highly informative, well researched and has made me doubt some of my own investments into crypto/NFTs.

[CtrlAlt]

I believe so. He might have switched or tried out Manjaro since he had issues with steam on Pop_OS.
