macOS 10.15 System Preference Panes

Below are a list of System Preference pane URLs and paths that can be accessed with scripting to assist users with enabling macOS security settings without having to walk them through launching System Preferences, finding panes, and scrolling to settings. Not all panes have an accessible anchor and some are OS specific.

To find the Pane ID of a specific pane, open the System Preferences app and select the desired Preference Pane. With the pane selected, open the ScriptEditor.app and run the following script to copy the current Pane ID to your clipboard and display any available anchors:

tell application "System Preferences"
	set CurrentPane to the id of the current pane
	set the clipboard to CurrentPane

Async/Await for Swift

• Proposal: SE-XXXX
• Authors: Chris Lattner, Joe Groff

Introduction

Modern Cocoa development involves a lot of asynchronous programming using closures and completion handlers, but these APIs are hard to use. This gets particularly problematic when many asynchronous operations are used, error handling is required, or control flow between asynchronous calls gets complicated. This proposal describes a language extension to make this a lot more natural and less error prone.

This paper introduces a first class Coroutine model to Swift. Functions can opt into to being async, allowing the programmer to compose complex logic involving asynchronous operations, leaving the compiler in charge of producing the necessary closures and state machines to implement that logic.

Node Periodic Timer Behaviors

Recently had a code review where the distinction between setInterval and setTimeout under Node came up. Wanting to answer this question I put together some simple tests. The behavior of the two implementations, as of Node 0.10.30, was surprisingly reverse of my expecations, but there is a lot of nuance to how the event loop works in this case.

setInterval

setInterval's behavior is similar to what one would expect from a exec+setTimeout loop. It's period is going to be it's exec time plus the interval value.

setInterval Delay: 50 Interval: 100 Wait mode: none

/**
 Provides the ability to verify key paths at compile time.
 
 If "keyPath" does not exist, a compile-time error will be generated.
 
 Example:
    // Verifies "isFinished" exists on "operation".
    NSString *key = SQKeyPath(operation, isFinished);
 
    // Verifies "isFinished" exists on self.
