Representing pointer values as emoji can be useful for "visually" debugging certain issues, like cell reuse, etc.

I bundled these up into groups and wrote some thoughts about why I ask them!

If these helped you, I'd love to hear about it!! I'm on twitter @vcarl_ or send me an email [email protected]

  • How long will it take to deploy my first change? To become productive? To understand the codebase?
  • What kind of equipment will I be provided? Will the company pay/reimburse me if I want something specific?

How to passthrough SATA drives directly on VMWare ESXI 6.5 as RDMs

How to passthrough SATA drives directly on VMWare EXSI 6.5 as RDMs

There aren't many tutorials about this, the only tutorials I've found were about passing through entire PCIe cards to VMs, or refered to old ESXI versions (below 6.5) that used a more comprehensive desktop client instead of the web app. In v6.5, the web app was introduced and the desktop client was deprecated. You used to be able to setup RDMs in the desktop client, but with the introduction of the web console, this is no longer the case. This tutorial shows you how to pass SATA HDDs to the virtual machine on VMWare ESXI 6.5. This tutorial is partially based on VMWare's own KB and the now deprecated Forza IT blog post.

A word about VMWare ESXI 6.7

There is now an option while editing your VM's settings to add a New raw disk when you click `Add ha

Mark designated initializer at compile time
#define MSDesignatedInitializer(__SEL__) __attribute__((unavailable("Invoke the designated initializer `" # __SEL__ "` instead.")))
// Sample usage:
- (instancetype)initWithObject:(id)object;
- (instancetype)init MSDesignatedInitializer(initWithObject:); // <- This even gets auto-complete.
// Now calling init on this class would throw a warning.
