A bash/ImageMagick script to recolor transparent .png files
#!/bin/bash
# A small script to change the color of mono-colored transparent .pngs
#
# Uses ImageMagick to read the most common 100% alpha color and then computes
# scale factors to multiply the whole image by.
#
# Improvements to be made:
# -deal with images containing pure black.
# -make portable between new and old ImageMagick versions

Latency numbers every programmer should know

Latency numbers every programmer should know

L1 cache reference ......................... 0.5 ns
Branch mispredict ............................ 5 ns
L2 cache reference ........................... 7 ns
Mutex lock/unlock ........................... 25 ns
Main memory reference ...................... 100 ns             
Compress 1K bytes with Zippy ............. 3,000 ns  =   3 µs
Send 2K bytes over 1 Gbps network ....... 20,000 ns  =  20 µs
SSD random read ........................ 150,000 ns  = 150 µs

Read 1 MB sequentially from memory ..... 250,000 ns = 250 µs

Using ServiceStack* together with Reactive Extensions** to reduce the latency before the client can start processing the elements of an array response. The service sends elements to the client as soon as they become available through the magic of AsyncServiceBase, IStreamWriter, IObservable<T>.ToEnumerable() and careful use of WriteLine() and Fl…

A list of methods and properties conforming to `UIAppearance` as of iOS 12 Beta 3

Generate the list yourself:

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…

A simple way to detect at runtime if we're running in UIKit legacy mode or the new "flat" variant. Written for our PDF iOS SDK (http://pspdfkit.com), where the precompiled binary needs to detect at runtime in what variant it's running. Want more stuff like that? Follow me on Twitter: http://twitter.com/steipete
// Taken from http://PSPDFKit.com. This snippet is under public domain.
#define UIKitVersionNumber_iOS_7_0 0xB57
BOOL PSPDFIsUIKitFlatMode(void) {
static BOOL isUIKitFlatMode = NO;
static dispatch_once_t onceToken;
dispatch_once(&onceToken, ^{
// We get the modern UIKit if system is running >= iOS 7 and we were linked with >= SDK 7.
if (kCFCoreFoundationVersionNumber >= kCFCoreFoundationVersionNumber_iOS_7_0) {
isUIKitFlatMode = (NSVersionOfLinkTimeLibrary("UIKit") >> 16) >= UIKitVersionNumber_iOS_7_0;
}

Declare on your main init that all other init methods should call. It's a nice additional semantic warning. Works with Xcode 5.1 and above. Not tested with earlier variants, but should just be ignored. A reference to this macro shortly appeared in https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/releasenotes/ObjectiveC/ModernizationObjC/AdoptingModernObj…

Created October 6, 2014 03:56
Export Hyper-V VMs (Powershell)
# Directions for use:
# Import this script using the Import-Module cmdlet
# On PoshCode at http://poshcode.org/5486 (modified from the original http://poshcode.org/3927)
# All output is logged to the backup directory in the $($BackupDriveLetter):\VMBackup\Backup-VMs.log file
# Use the Backup-VMs cmdlet to begin the process
# Parameter BackupDriveLetter indicates the drive to put this backup onto. It must be mounted to the host running the script.
# Parameter VMHost defines the host that contains the VMs you want to back up. If it's blank, then it just targets the host the script is running on
# Parameter VMNames defines the specific VMs you wish to backup, otherwise it'll back up all of them on the target host
# Switch parameter ShutHostDownWhenFinished will cause the specified host (and any VMs running on it) to shut down upon completion of the backup
# Example:
