This is a very simple git workflow. It (and variants) is in use by many people.
I settled on it after using it very effectively at Athena.
GitHub does something similar; Zach Holman mentioned it
in this talk.
Update: Woah, thanks for all the attention. Didn't expect this simple rant
to get popular.
Now add the line fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/* to this section. Obviously, change the github url to match your project's URL. It ends up looking like this:
This is a guard that tracks down UIKit access on threads other than main. This snippet is taken from the commercial iOS PDF framework http://pspdfkit.com, but relicensed under MIT. Works because a lot of calls internally call setNeedsDisplay or setNeedsLayout. Won't catch everything, but it's very lightweight and usually does the job.You might n…
In August 2007 a hacker found a way to expose the PHP source code on facebook.com. He retrieved two files and then emailed them to me, and I wrote about the issue:
First, plug in an 8GB (or bigger) USB drive, and use Disk Utility to erase it
If you use the default settings, you should wind up with a blank drive at /Volumes/Untitled.
With that volume in place, and with the macOS installer sitting in /Applications/Install\ macOS\ [VERSION].app,
run the following command in your terminal to create a bootable install media (for Sierra):
A composable pattern for pure state machines with effects
State machines are everywhere in interactive systems, but they're rarely defined clearly and explicitly. Given some big blob of code including implicit state machines, which transitions are possible and under what conditions? What effects take place on what transitions?
There are existing design patterns for state machines, but all the patterns I've seen complect side effects with the structure of the state machine itself. Instances of these patterns are difficult to test without mocking, and they end up with more dependencies. Worse, the classic patterns compose poorly: hierarchical state machines are typically not straightforward extensions. The functional programming world has solutions, but they don't transpose neatly enough to be broadly usable in mainstream languages.
Here I present a composable pattern for pure state machiness with effects,
