Symbolicates a sample dump from Activity Monitor
#!/usr/bin/env python
#
# To use this, just put the DSYMS in the same directory as the sample dump file,

drewmccormack / email-list-set-operations.sh
Created January 18, 2018 10:20
Common set operations to perform on email lists. Assumes one email per line, and handles case insensitivity.
# Enter two file names as arguments.
# Will print out the ones that appear in both files.
# This is a set intersection.
emails-common-to-both () {
comm -12 -i <(sort -u -f "$1") <(sort -u -f "$2");
};
# Enter two filenames.
# Will print emails from first that don't appear in second.
# This is like a set subtraction.

drewmccormack / MultidimensionalOptionalFlatMap.swift
Created November 17, 2017 17:14
Use flatMap with multiple optional variables, ensuring all are non-nil before making a function call.
func flatMap<U, V, T>(_ i: U?, _ j: V?, block: (U, V)->T) -> T? {
var result: T?
if let i = i, let j = j { result = block(i,j) }
return result
}
func flatMap<U, V, W, T>(_ i: U?, _ j: V?, _ k: W?, block: (U, V, W)->T) -> T? {
var result: T?
if let i = i, let j = j, let k = k { result = block(i,j,k) }
