generate random numbers for 64-bit types while mitigating modulo bias
/*
`arc4random_uniform` is very useful but limited to `UInt32`.
This defines a generic version of `arc4random` for any type
expressible by an integer literal, and extends some numeric
types with a `random` method that mitigates for modulo bias
in the same manner as `arc4random`.
`lower` is inclusive and `upper` is exclusive, thus:

How to set up stress-free SSL on an OS X development machine

How to set up stress-free SSL on an OS X development machine

One of the best ways to reduce complexity (read: stress) in web development is to minimize the differences between your development and production environments. After being frustrated by attempts to unify the approach to SSL on my local machine and in production, I searched for a workflow that would make the protocol invisible to me between all environments.

Most workflows make the following compromises:

  • Use HTTPS in production but HTTP locally. This is annoying because it makes the environments inconsistent, and the protocol choices leak up into the stack. For example, your web application needs to understand the underlying protocol when using the secure flag for cookies. If you don't get this right, your HTTP development server won't be able to read the cookies it writes, or worse, your HTTPS production server could pass sensitive cookies over an insecure connection.

  • Use production SSL certificates locally. This is annoying

little script to be run after_success on Travis-CI to push to a configurable deploy branch. I'm using it to deploy successful builds with chef: if the master is green push the code to master_green. from there it get's deployed with chef
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
# HOWTO:
# copy this file to script/travis-deploy
# chmod +x script/travis-deploy
# add the following to your .travis.yml
# after_success:
# - "script/travis-deploy"

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…
