System setup stuff for a new mac or a new OLD mac (a/o 2026)

Setting up a Mac

  • 2026-07-31 · MacOS 26 Tahoe · Apple Silicon
  • Intel machines and OpenCore Legacy are in the companion file below

PART ONE — Clean

Result: a machine with no Apple Intelligence, no Siri, no analytics reporting, none of the bundled iLife/iWork apps, and the undeletable ones silenced. Clean.

Script for dealing with creating Postgres databases that complain with: ``` PG::InvalidParameterValue: ERROR: encoding UTF8 does not match locale en_US DETAIL: The chosen LC_CTYPE setting requires encoding LATIN1. ``` ...when trying to create the production DB.

Big list of http static server one-liners

Each of these commands will run an ad hoc http static server in your current (or specified) directory, available at http://localhost:8000. Use this power wisely.

Laravel 4 Eloquent Cheat Sheet.

Conventions:

Defining Eloquent model (will assume that DB table named is set as plural of class name and primary key named "id"):

class Shop extends Eloquent {}

Using custom table name

protected $table = 'my_shops';
