@kobenys thanks for the report! What platform are you running on?

Adjusting the resource limits — specifically, increasing the open file limit — is done early on to avoid possible crashes later when using a high degree of parallelism and working with a large number of inputs. It's not essential to Nosey Parker operation.

I'll fix this. If attempting to adjust the resource limits at startup fails, a warning should be printed and the operation should attempt to continue on.

This is fixed on main now, and will be included in the next Nosey Parker release (v0.18.0, in the next several weeks). From there, it should get picked up in Homebrew.
