TRIM Enabler for OS X Yosemite 10.10.3
#
# UPDATE for 10.10.4+: please consider this patch obsolete, as apple provides a tool called "trimforce" to enable trim support for 3rd party SSDs
# just run "sudo trimforce enable" to activate the trim support from now on!
#
# Original version by Grant Parnell is offline (http://digitaldj.net/2011/07/21/trim-enabler-for-lion/)
# Update July 2014: no longer offline, see https://digitaldj.net/blog/2011/11/17/trim-enabler-for-os-x-lion-mountain-lion-mavericks/
#
# Looks for "Apple" string in HD kext, changes it to a wildcard match for anything

Testing web pages with Xcode's iOS Simulator

Finding the Simulator

You can test with the iOS Simulator that comes with Xcode. Navigate to the Xcode app in the Finder, right click and select "Show Package Contents":

Then navigate to Contents > Applications, and open the shortcut to "iPhone Simulator" (it may be called "iOS Simulator" depending on which version of Xcode you're running):

Custom Web Fonts and the Rails Asset Pipeline

Web fonts are pretty much all the rage. Using a CDN for font libraries, like TypeKit or Google Fonts, will be a great solution for many projects. For others, this is not an option. Especially when you are creating a custom icon library for your project.

Rails and the asset pipeline are great tools, but Rails has yet to get caught up in the custom web font craze.

As with all things Rails, there is more then one way to skin this cat. There is the recommended way, and then there are the other ways.

The recommended way

Here I will show how to update your Rails project so that you can use the asset pipeline appropriately and resource your files using the common Rails convention.

compiling a minified version of css. This configures your compass project to emit files in minified form when compiling for production.
$ compass compile --environment production && compass compile

Afterwards you will have both the minified and non-minified versions in your output folder. Note that compass clean will not clean up your minified files.

Promise protips - stuff I wish I had known when I started with Promises
// Promise.all is good for executing many promises at once
Promise.all([
promise1,
promise2
]);
// Promise.resolve is good for wrapping synchronous code
Promise.resolve().then(function () {
if (somethingIsNotRight()) {
throw new Error("I will be rejected asynchronously!");
