Objective-C Language Enhancements

Objective-C APIs can now express the “nullability” of parameters, return types, properties, variables, etc. For example, here is the expression of nullability for several UITableView APIs:

-(void)registerNib:(nonnull UINib *)nib forCellReuseIdentifier:(nonnull NSString *)identifier;
-(nullable UITableViewCell *)cellForRowAtIndexPath:(nonnull NSIndexPath)indexPath;
@property (nonatomic, readwrite, retain, nullable) UIView *backgroundView;

The nullability qualifiers affect the optionality of the Objective-C APIs when in Swift. Instead of being imported as implicitly-unwrapped optionals (e.g., UINib!), nonnull-qualified types are imported as non-optional (e.g., UINib) and nullable-qualified types are imported as optional (e.g., UITableViewCell?), so the above APIs will be seen in Swift as:

func registerNib(nib: UINib, forCellReuseIdentifier identifier: String)

Upgrade Postgres 9.3 to 9.4 on Ubuntu
# Be sure to save your config files. Optional but I do:
sudo cp /etc/postgresql/9.3/main/postgresql.conf ~
sudo cp /etc/postgresql/9.3/main/pg_hba.conf ~
# Package repo (for apt-get)
wget --quiet -O - https://www.postgresql.org/media/keys/ACCC4CF8.asc | sudo apt-key add -
sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt/ precise-pgdg main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/postgresql.list'
# Also probably optional but I like to update sources and upgrade
sudo apt-get update
