You've been there...

Maybe you're listening to your favourite song on Rdio, or maybe checking your Soundcloud stream. You reach for the play/pause key on your keyboard and BAM, motherfucking iTunes comes up. Don't you hate that? I do.

Luckily, there's a way to fix it. Open your terminal and type:

launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchAgents/com.apple.rcd.plist

Voilà, iTunes no longer responds to the media keys. The only downside is that now iTunes doesn't respond to the media keys at all. I couldn't care less, but if you're a crazy person who actually likes iTunes (poor you!), you can reattach the keys at any time with:

# Just add this code to your .bash_profile/.bashrc to use it.

# It looks like this:

# There are variations if there are untracked files (a + will appear), uncommited changes
# (branch colour turns yellow) and if you need to pull/push (arrows will appear).

Flexbox intro

Make sure to check out the main reading in compass, it will clarify a lot of what's happening in the code: https://rbc-corp.lighthouselabs.ca/days/w2d2/activities/44

Save both the flex.css and flex.html to the same folder in your computer and experiment!

This is the code discussed in class, minus the images. You can check the final result online at Forge, where we've uploaded it:

Is you attempt to do a bin/rails db:setup or something similar and it complains like this:

PG::InvalidParameterValue: ERROR:  encoding "UTF8" does not match locale "en_US"
DETAIL:  The chosen LC_CTYPE setting requires encoding "LATIN1".

Run these commands in your Vagrant box:

require 'pry'

DIR = "./photos"
