macOS 10.12 Sierra Setup

Custom recipe to get macOS 10.12 Sierra running from scratch, setup applications and developer environment. This is very similar (and currently mostly the same) as my 10.11 El Capitan setup recipe and 10.10 Yosemite setup recipe. I am currently tweaking this for 10.12 Sierra and expect to refine this gist over the next few weeks.

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.

This keeps the system performing at top speeds, clean of trojans, spyware, and ensures that I maintain good organizational practices for my content and backups. I highly recommend this.

You are encouraged to fork this and modify it to your heart's content to match your o

// Expects a "paint" function that takes a "context" to draw on
// Whenever this component updates it will call this paint function
// to draw on the canvas. For convenience, pixel dimensions are stored

// You can inject data and callbacks that change that data by dispatching actions.
function connect(mapStateToProps, mapDispatchToProps) {
  // It lets us inject component as the last step so people can use it as a decorator.

Go pointers

This gist demonstrates the use of pointers in go (and other similar languages)

Use &x to get the address of x

Use *x to get a value from an address x

When should I use a pointer?
