Forward your clipboard via SSH reverse tunnels

Exposing your clipboard over SSH

I frequently administer remote servers over SSH, and need to copy data to my clipboard. If the text I want to copy all fits on one screen, then I simply select it with my mouse and press CMD-C, which asks relies on m y terminal emulator (xterm2) to throw it to the clipboard.

This isn't practical for larger texts, like when I want to copy the whole contents of a file.

If I had been editing large-file.txt locally, I could easily copy its contents by using the pbcopy command:

This is my technical interview cheat sheet. Feel free to fork it or do whatever you want with it. PLEASE let me know if there are any errors or if anything crucial is missing. I will add more links soon.

ANNOUNCEMENT

I have moved this over to the Tech Interview Cheat Sheet Repo and has been expanded and even has code challenges you can run and practice against!

Writing Objective-C framework code that works on multiple OS versions AND can be compiled using multiple SDK versions without warnings can be a PITA. Here's my approach:

Suppose we want to add support for a new iOS 8 API in our framework that replaces an older iOS 7 API. There are a few problems we might face:

  1. The new API will crash if we call it on iOS 7
  2. The new API won't compile if we build it using the iOS 7 SDK
  3. The old API will raise a deprecation warning if built with a deployment target of iOS 8 and up

These three problems require three different technical solutions:

  1. We can avoid calling the new API on an old OS version by using runtime detection (e.g. respondsToSelector:)
  2. We can avoid compiling new APIs on old SDKs using the __IPHONE_OS_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED macro

Automatically disable Wifi when an Ethernet connection (cable) is plugged in on a Mac

Overview

This is a bash script that will automatically turn your wifi off if you connect your computer to an ethernet connection and turn wifi back on when you unplug your ethernet cable/adapter. If you decide to turn wifi on for whatever reason, it will remember that choice. This was improvised from this mac hint to work with Yosemite, and without hard-coding the adapter names. It's supposed to support growl, but I didn't check that part. I did, however, add OSX notification center support. Feel free to fork and fix any issues you encounter.

Most the credit for these changes go to Dave Holland.

Requirements

  • Mac OSX 10+
  • Administrator privileges

How to set up git to use the GPG Suite

GPG and git on macOS

Setup

No need for homebrew or anything like that. Works with https://www.git-tower.com and the command line.

  1. Install https://gpgtools.org -- I'd suggest to do a customized install and deselect GPGMail.
  2. Create or import a key -- see below for https://keybase.io
  3. Run gpg --list-secret-keys and look for sec, use the key ID for the next step
  4. Configure git to use GPG -- replace the key with the one from gpg --list-secret-keys
