Karabiner layouts for symbols and navigation

Gavin Sinclair, January 2022

Introduction

I use Karabiner (configured with Gosu) to make advanced key mappings on my Apple computer. Karabiner allows you to create “layers”, perhaps simulating those on a programmable mechanical keyboard. I make good use of these layers to give me easy access (home-row or nearby) to all symbols and navigational controls, and even a numpad.

The motivation is to keep hand movement to a minimum. Decades of coding on standard keyboards has unfortunately left me with hand and wrist pain. I will soon enough own a small split keyboard which will force me to use layers to access symbols etc., so this Karabiner solution, which has evolved over months, is a training run for that.

Fundamentals

Layout and Drawing are two different things:

  • Layout defines only the positions and sizes of all views on screen.
  • Drawing specifies how each view is rendered (how it looks).

How to trigger a sysdiagnose on iOS

How To sysdiagnose on iOS:

  1. Hold volume up + volume down + power for 250 milliseconds.
  2. Wait (up to 5 minutes)
  3. Settings.app > Privacy > Analytics > Analytics Data
  4. Select the "sysdiagnose_" file and share via AirDrop to a Mac.

Concrete proposal for async semantics in Swift

Async/Await for Swift

Introduction

Modern Cocoa development involves a lot of asynchronous programming using closures and completion handlers, but these APIs are hard to use. This gets particularly problematic when many asynchronous operations are used, error handling is required, or control flow between asynchronous calls gets complicated. This proposal describes a language extension to make this a lot more natural and less error prone.

This paper introduces a first class Coroutine model to Swift. Functions can opt into to being async, allowing the programmer to compose complex logic involving asynchronous operations, leaving the compiler in charge of producing the necessary closures and state machines to implement that logic.

Go language overview for experienced programmers

The Go language for experienced programmers

Why use Go?

  • Like C, but with garbage collection, memory safety, and special mechanisms for concurrency
  • Pointers but no pointer arithmetic
  • No header files
  • Simple, clean syntax
  • Very fast native compilation (about as quick to edit code and restart as a dynamic language)
  • Easy-to-distribute executables
