Azure and Public IP Addresses

In Microsoft Azure, even when a VM has a public IP address internface, the system sees it as a private network address. It also uses a private IP address as the gateway. The only way to "fix" this without making routing table changes is to use setsockopt() with SO_BINDTODEVICE, which is a privileged operation. In addition to that (and this can't be worked around in any generic way) you will need to do the standard socket bind() with the private IP address corresponding to the interface you want to use.

Solving With Policy Based Routing

The new generation of network configuration tools (I guess they're not that new, but they replaced route and ifconfig) makes policy-based routing pretty easy, especially if you don't require anything too special

Set Up Name Mappings for Routing Tables (Optional)

Backup android app, data included, no root needed, with adb

Note: This gist may be outdated, thanks to all contributors in comments.

adb is the Android CLI tool with which you can interact with your android device, from your PC

You must enable developer mode (tap 7 times on the build version in parameters) and install adb on your PC.

Don't hesitate to read comments, there is useful tips, thanks guys for this !

I am assuming you are here because like me, you installed a bazillion different python interpreters on mac and the whole thing is a spagetti. Today, I finally fixed my python installation. Whatever I install for python2 or python3 using pip JUST.WORKS.. My god! finally.

What the hell?

Here is what I had messed up, which you also probably did:

I had too many different python interpreters
Too many different symlinks which I lost track of
almost no package I installed with pip worked without a headache
any attempt to fix using online resources made it worse.
