Turn off annoying macOS man page shortcuts via the command line

Context

macOS 10.14.4 introduced a keyboard shortcut that conflicts with one of IntelliJ IDEA’s best shortcuts. cmd-shift-a pops open a Terminal window running an apropos search on the text selection, rather than the command palette.

You can manually disable these keyboard shortcuts via System Preferences, but this script does this programmatically. I was unable to find any existing information about how to do this via the command line, so I rolled my own solution.

It took a long time to work out which defaults domain to find the plist for this. I probably worked out the pbs domain from this post.

Git: Extract a feature to a new repo, retaining history

Abstract

I recently needed to extract a feature from a project to its own repo so I could publish as a standalone library:

# from
/some-project/src/some-folder/some-feature/*

import PropTypes from 'prop-types';

type Omit<T, K> = Pick<T, Exclude<keyof T, K>>;

type Defined<T> = T extends undefined ? never : T;

/**
 * Get the type that represents the props with the defaultProps included.

 * Alternatively, we could have done something like this:

Exclude node_modules and .git from Backblaze backups on Mac

1. Edit the file at /Library/Backblaze.bzpkg/bzdata/bzexcluderules_editable.xml.
2. Add these rules inside the bzexclusions tag:

<!-- Exclude node_modules. -->
<excludefname_rule plat="mac" osVers="*"  ruleIsOptional="t" skipFirstCharThenStartsWith="users/" contains_1="/node_modules/" contains_2="*" doesNotContain="*" endsWith="*" hasFileExtension="*" />
<excludefname_rule plat="mac" osVers="*"  ruleIsOptional="t" skipFirstCharThenStartsWith="users/" contains_1="/.git/" contains_2="*" doesNotContain="*" endsWith="*" hasFileExtension="*" />

I am moving this gist to a github repo so more people can contribute to it. Also, it makes it easier for me to version control.

Shadow DOM

Heads Up! It's all about the V1 Spec.

In a nutshell, Shadow DOM enables local scoping for HTML & CSS.

Laravel / Lumen Homestead for Windows w/fixes

###Initial installation and configuration Install Git for Windows which includes Git Bash.

Install VirtualBox and Vagrant.

Note: These fixes were not originally done for VirtualBox 5.0 and Vagrant 1.7.4. They are for the previous versions instead: VirtualBox 4.3.30 and Vagrant 1.7.3. Some of these fixes may not be needed now. For example, I recently upgraded to VirtualBox 5.0 and Vagrant 1.7.4 and I did not have to alter the Vagrant ruby (.rb) files as shown in part of this Gist below. I'll soon try from a fresh install (not upgrade) and update this Gist accordingly.

In Git Bash (always run as administrator), type cd ~ to
