  Mac app that shows all open files, directories, sockets, pipes and devices in use by all running processes. Nice GUI for lsof.

  I haven't reviewed obj-c code in over a decade, but I do know anything running with root authorization needs to be scrutinized carefully. And seeing blocks of code copy-pasted from stackoverflow, references to a 10 year old operating system, use of SIGKILL instead of the proper SIGTERM, for example, does not exactly inspire the necessary confidence.

  A more intuitive version of du in rust

  Happened to me this morning, something filled up my drive in minutes. I used dust[1] to look for large files while it was happening but knowing what was doing it would've been a big help.

  On Linux, this can be done using BPF (Berkley Packet Filter). In fact there is a tool in BCC[0] called filetop, which lists reads/writes by process and file[1].
