macOS 10.13 High Sierra Mostly-Automated Setup

An easy to refer to document for regularly setting up macOS 10.13 High Siera, in flavor of my previous macOS/OSX setup gists:

• macOS 10.12 Sierra - https://gist.github.com/kevinelliott/7a152c556a83b322e0a8cd2df128235c
• Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan - https://gist.github.com/kevinelliott/e12aa642a8388baf2499
• Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite - https://gist.github.com/kevinelliott/0726211d17020a6abc1f

I use this gist to keep track of the important software and steps required to have a functioning system after a semi-annual fresh install. I generally reinstall each computer from scratch every 6 months, and I do not perform upgrades between releases.

Nix seems perfect for developers - until I try to use it...

Want to use Nix for development but you're not sure how? Concerned about the fluidity of nixpkgs channels or not being able to easily install arbitrary package versions?

When I first heard about Nix it seemed like the perfect tool for a developer. When I tried to actually use it for developing and deploying web apps, though, the pieces just didn't seem to add up.

Making Chiptune Music using Sonic Pi v2.0

Warning: this might not work on a RaspberryPi yet

I was curious about making retro gaming sounds using Sonic Pi. A couple of months and a lot of Googling later, here's the original Mario Bros theme as it was heard on the NES console.

I'm (just about) old enough to remember rushing home from school to play this game at Philip Boucher's house, sitting cross-legged in front of the TV till my feet got pins and needles. Working out how to recreate it for Sonic Pi was a lot of fun!
