Using Swift libraries in Python

So... this is obviously totally, 100%, like for. real. not. supported. by. Apple. …yet?

But still... I thought it was pretty badass. And, seeing how there's already a Swift buildpack for Heroku you could move some slow code into Swift can call it as a library function. But, you know, not in production or anything. That would be silly, right?

Now, having said that, the actual Python/Swift interop may have bugs. I'll leave that as an exercise to the reader.

About

I recently relocated for new employment. I've been staying in an extended stay hotel for about 3 weeks now. The hotel I'm staying in gives its guests free Wifi access. However, it requires users to accept terms and conditions on a splash page via browser interface before they can use the network. This makes it difficult to use my Chromecast with the network, as it doesn't have a means of accessing that splash page. While I could call the IT help line, I decided to explore a work-around.

Like many networks, my hotel's network attempts to improve security by using MAC address filtering. Luckily, Mac OS X (10.4 - 10.10) makes it very easy to spoof your network card's MAC address.

Here's how to add a devices like Chromecast, AppleTV, Roku to a wireless network that requires a browser to authenticate and accept terms and conditions.

The easiest way to load the Mysql Time Zone tables from your Mac OS time zone fields is via this command:

mysql_tzinfo_to_sql /usr/share/zoneinfo | mysql -u root mysql

However, on many systems like mine that will fail because some of the time zone information is incompatible with the database schema for the time zone tables.

Therefore, you'll want to load the time zone information into a text file and edit it to only include the time zones you need. (Or, attempt to find the data breaking the import.)

mysql_tzinfo_to_sql /usr/share/zoneinfo > zone_import.sql
