Ever noticed how vw/vh units in CSS seem to be a bit unreliable on various devices (especially mobile)? Here's my solution.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1, user-scalable=0">
<title>Test Page</title>
<script>
// early compute the vw/vh units more reliably than CSS does itself
computeViewportDimensions();

How to use Spotlight searches in Swift (basic example)
let query = MDQueryCreate(kCFAllocatorDefault, "kMDItemContentType = com.apple.application-bundle" as CFString, nil, nil)
MDQueryExecute(query, CFOptionFlags(kMDQuerySynchronous.rawValue))
let count = MDQueryGetResultCount(query);
for i in 0 ..< count {
let rawPtr = MDQueryGetResultAtIndex(query, i)
let item = Unmanaged<MDItem>.fromOpaque(rawPtr!).takeUnretainedValue()
if let path = MDItemCopyAttribute(item, kMDItemPath) as? String {
print(path)
}

Sublime Text: Editing Snippets
Sublime Text 3 stores its packages in .sublime-package zip files, so unlike ST2 you can't just go to the Packages folder and see everything. However, there is an excellent plugin called PackageResourceViewer (available via Package Control) that can, among other things, extract files or whole packages to the Packages directory.
Once you've installed the plugin, hit CtrlShiftP to open the command palette, and type prv to get the Package Resource Viewer: options. Select Package Resource Viewer: Open Resource, navigate down the list to LaTeX, then open the section-..-(section).sublime-snippet file. You should now be able to edit this file and save it, which will create a new file Packages/LaTeX/section-..-(section).sublime-snippet that you can open directly via the file menu if you need to alter it again.

performance testing prosody, tigase, ejabberd
motivation
* test xmpp bot behavior with different servers, measure throughput and reliability.
* figure out numbers for prosody, nothing seems to be published at the time of writing
* the goal was _not_ to push the servers to their limits, so the test environment was not highly optimized.
test setup
* macbook pro hosting ubuntu raring on vmware fusion.
* communication flow: xmpp client (osx) > xmpp server (ubuntu) > xmpp bot (osx).
* client opens 20 connections to server and pumps 150 iq stanzas (similar disco#items) to bot. this is being repeated 40x.
* servers:
