Moved

Why it was moved

Github gists don't support Pull Requests or any notifications, which made it impossible for me to maintain this (surprisingly popular) gist with fixes, respond to comments and so on. In the interest of maintaining the quality of this resource for others, I've moved it to a proper repo. Cheers!

I was chasing down another issue (slow "Save As") and thought these two issues may have been related (with QuickLook being the common broken link). Unfortunately, my "Save As" dialog is still miserably slow on the initial load; but IconServicesAgent hasn't gone above 30MB and he rarely makes an appearance in the Console!

Some of these steps may not be necessary, but here are all of the steps I took that inadverdently put IconServicesAgent back in its place. Note: all commands are a single-line, if they appear to be multiple that's just the forum formatting.

1. Check for any QuickLooks related .plist files. In a terminal: mdfind com.apple.quicklook. -name .plist

2. I only had files at the system level (specifically within /System/Library/LaunchAgents/). If you have others, modify the directions below to take that into account (re-introducing plist files from the system level back up to the user).

3. Make some temporary directories to store these plist files, just in case: mkdir ~/tmp-quicklook

Latency numbers every programmer should know

L1 cache reference ......................... 0.5 ns
Branch mispredict ............................ 5 ns                     on recent CPU
L2 cache reference ........................... 7 ns                     14x L1 cache
Mutex lock/unlock ........................... 25 ns
Main memory reference ...................... 100 ns                     20x L2 cache, 200x L1 cache
Compress 1K bytes with Zippy ............. 3,000 ns  =   3 µs
Send 2K bytes over 1 Gbps network ....... 20,000 ns  =  20 µs
SSD random read ........................ 150,000 ns  = 150 µs

Read 1 MB sequentially from memory ..... 250,000 ns = 250 µs 4X memory

Useful Docker Cheat Sheet

Random Tips

• If needed, create a .dockerignore file to exclude files/paths you don't want. Matching rules are from Golang's filepath rules, as well as some unique exceptions.

A Dozen Dockerfile Instructions to Know

• FROM — specifies the base (parent) image; typically you specify both the image name as well as the label. 🍰
• RUN — runs a command and creates an image layer. Used to install packages into containers. 🍰

# Change these placeholders:
# * $INPUT_START_TIME - number of seconds in the input video to start from.
# * $LENGTH - number of seconds to convert from the input video.
# * $INPUT_FILENAME - path to the input video.
# * $OUTPUT_FPS - ouput frames per second. Start with `10`.
# * $OUTPUT_WIDTH - output width in pixels. Aspect ratio is maintained.
