Error Xcode Select Error Tool Xcodebuild Requires Xcode Active Developer Directory Command Line Tools Instance
Playing with Cordova, I was getting this error when building iOS version: Error: xcode-select: error: tool 'xcodebuild' requires Xcode, but active developer directory is a command line tools instance Even full install of Xcode didn’t fix this error. The solution was to run following command to use full Xcode instead of command line tools version that I had installed earlier: sudo xcode-select --switch /Applications/Xcode-beta.app/Contents/DeveloperPublished on
Setup Outgoing Email on Lightsail Ubuntu VPS

hsts Neterr_cert_common_name_invalid
Without full understanding, I had enabled HSTS on amerkhalid.com with option includeSubDomains. I had a subdomain that was used as “Custom Domain” to SmugMug site. After enabling HSTS, these subdomains started to throw NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID. The fix is of course simple, don’t use includeSubDomains. But that opens up your top level domain to man in middle attacks. For now, I decided to follow the best practices and leave includeSubDomains enabled. And decided to not use custom domain for my SmugMug site.Published on

LeetCode 1664: Ways to Make a Fair Array
I tried to do this all by myself but got stuck, ended up transpiling this solution in PHP. class Solution { /** * @param Integer[] $nums * @return Integer */ function waysToMakeFair($nums) { $len = count($nums); $ans = 0; $leftOdd = 0; $rightOdd = 0; $leftEven = 0; $rightEven = 0; for ($i=0; $i<$len; $i++) { if ($i%2 === 0) $rightEven += $nums[$i]; else $rightOdd += $nums[$i]; } for ($i=0; $i<$len; $i++) { if ($i%2 === 0) $rightEven -= $nums[$i]; else $rightOdd -= $nums[$i]; if ($leftEven + $rightOdd === $rightEven + $leftOdd) $ans++; if ($i%2 === 0) $leftEven += $nums[$i]; else $leftOdd += $nums[$i]; } return $ans; } }Published on
