The most flawed country selection dropdown I came across for a while. Found on http://ryanair.com. Ignoring the decision using adjectives for countries (making keystrokes useless for selecting) I can find at least four semantical mistakes in the list.

for file in *.wav; do lame -V2 "$file" "${file%.wav}".mp3; done |
Higher values of the -V* parameter will reduce the quality and decrease the file size of the mp3 files. Make sure lame is installed.
You sync your Calendar or Contacts on your iPhone with Google’s CalDAV and/or CardDAV. But enabling multi-factor authentication for your Google Account causes the synchronization to fail. Because you know, you cannot enter the second factor somewhere.
A simple fix to keep using the secure 2-factor authentication but have your data synchronized using password authentication, you can expose certain services using a password by setting up service-specific passwords in the settings of your Google Account.
Add the following config, e.g. to /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:
LogLevel info authz_core:debug
then make sure to reload apache (service httpd reload) and you will find a detailed reason, why access to a resource is granted or not in the error log.
Want to initialize a UIColor object from a hex code?
Create a new Swift class named “UIColor+FromRGB.swift” with the following content:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 |
import UIKit extension UIColor { static func fromRGB(colorCode: String, alpha: Float = 1.0) -> UIColor { let scanner = NSScanner(string:colorCode) var color:UInt32 = 0; scanner.scanHexInt(&color) let mask = 0x000000FF let r = CGFloat(Float(Int(color >> 16) & mask)/255.0) let g = CGFloat(Float(Int(color >> 8) & mask)/255.0) let b = CGFloat(Float(Int(color) & mask)/255.0) return UIColor(red: r, green: g, blue: b, alpha: CGFloat(alpha)) } static func fromRGB(colorCode: UInt) -> UIColor { let mask = 0x000000FF let r = CGFloat(Float(Int(colorCode >> 16) & mask)/255.0) let g = CGFloat(Float(Int(colorCode >> 8) & mask)/255.0) let b = CGFloat(Float(Int(colorCode) & mask)/255.0) return UIColor(red: r, green: g, blue: b, alpha: CGFloat(1.0)) } } |
Initializing a UIColor object then is now a matter of a one-liner, e.g.:
|
1 |
filter.backgroundColor = UIColor.fromRGB("00B997"); |

Need to unpack a bunch of files such as:
|
1 |
bigfile.tar-part0000 |
|
1 |
bigfile.tar-part0001 |
|
1 |
bigfile.tar-part0002 |
with the following command:
cat bigfile.tar-part000* | tar xzf –
which untars the part file’s contents to the current folder.
