Mac hung this morning. After rebooting (twice) and restarting Apache still had no httpd service.
Needed to separately run:
sudo apachectl stop
sudo apachectl start

Squashing Git Commits
Assuming none pushed to origin.
git rebase -i HEAD~n where n is number of recent commits to squash.
Vim will show commits from oldest to newest.
- i to enter interactive mode.
- make changes. Esc to leave interactive mode
- :w to write
- : x to execute (remove space between : x. Preventing emoji render)
PICK the oldest (first line). SQUASH the subsequent commits.
Do a similar thing with Vim to edit the new commit message (interact, save, execute)

brew services restart php@7.2I was trying to change PHP settings, to be able to experiment with Xdebug profiling.
phpinfo() shows that it loads /usr/local/etc/php/7.1/php.ini , which is true, but didn’t seem the case because changes were not taking affect after restarting PHP and Apache.
I was restarting the wrong PHP with brew services restart php71. Even stopping it has no effect.
So that’s not the version that Apache is pointing to. It uses some other instance of the service that I don’t know how to restart without doing the whole computer!
Do this
sudo brew services restart php@7.1brew services list can also be useful, or even brew services list | grep php

KEYBOARD LAYOUT
Left Alt + Shift to revert to correct keyboard layout.
I never remember this.
(e.g. WordPress site)
Tar Gz Directory
- Go to /var/www
- tar -zcf ../mysite_today.tar.gz public_html
- (-z compress; c create file; f archive file name)
- contains public_html in archive.
- Download with WinSCP
MySQL
mysqldump -u username -p dbname | gzip > myexport.sql.gzType your password. Done.

The handy window.matchMedia JavaScript method lets you test a media query against the current viewport.
I made a little tool to test a batch of media queries at once. It simply iterates an array and reports success/failure.
Note that results won’t be accurate when a vendor prefixed media query is unsupported.
