It doesn't seem like they are available with `import Darwin` indeed

I merged https://github.com/angristan/MacThrottle/pull/2 to make it work on macOS 15. macOS 14 probably works, feel free to try it out and open a PR to lower the required version if it's the case

My M4 Max Macbook Pro can run for a while at like 105°C and fans to the max before throttling, when it starts throttling it doesn't exceed that threshold, and then the temperature goes down for a while before throttling stops

Interesting, yeah iStat Menus reports the wattage of the charger, sometimes I've charged my mac with like a 5 or 10W charger and I didn't have that issue But now that rings a bell, I think a coworker had that issue recently. I wonder why that happens

Agreed, half of these questions are answered in the post. Also, looking at the account's comment history confirms that it's karma-farming with comments or something like that

Oh really? TIL, I thought it was dependant on the app developer. I can look into it, thanks!

Oops, I fixed it, I have not very important Cloudflare Workers in front of the blog (which is on Cloudflare Pages) and somehow they were in fail closed mode and not fail open :(

I have had back luck with them intermittently losing routing. Sometimes re-creating the worker fixes weird issues.

This one is my bad, I've exceeded the 100k free reqs/day (for https://stanislas.blog/2025/02/redirect-dead-links-hugo-imag...), and I didn't enable the setting to bypass it over that limit

Indeed, that's why apps like iStat Menus, Stats, Sensei etc (for macOS at least) are very useful, I keep the CPU usage and power usage in my menu bar at all times, this is very useful on battery. For example I know that my Macbook Air idles at ~2W-5W, so if I'm doing nothing special and it's using 15W, a process is doing some funny stuff

Yeah! That's how I initially suspected that it was thermal throttling because I saw in iStat Menus that my wattage was going down for a constantly high CPU usage

Ah! Yeah I did notice that using `ProcessInfo.processInfo.thermalState`, the state didn't update unless I restarted the process (reproducible even with a swift script). But this issue doesn't happen with the technique I use right now (the thermald notification)

Thanks, I will check your approach. And your app as well, looks beautiful and useful.

Thank you for the kind words :)
