Google freeandopen campaign special touch

Today, I was a bit surprised to see this post in my Facebook feed:


The post is from the official Google Facebook page. Amazing right? Blah blah Vietnam ICT scene is becoming larger and larger blah blah. However, I quickly saw the Sponsored tag and figured they must have post multiple posts in different languages then use the sponsor thingy to promote post to specific audience. I came to the Facebook page but only saw 2 posts (one in Vietnamese and the other in English). Strange. There are much larger market and this sounds just wrong...

Turned out, they used another nice feature for Facebook page:

 
Page admin can guard their posts by user location and language. Pretty useful feature from Facebook and nice touch from Google!

Flutter: Fixing Firebase header not found with Notification Service Extension

If you follow the FCM tutorial Send an image in the notification payload and encountered this error message: 'FirebaseMessaging/FirebaseMessaging.h' file not found You are on the right place, I'm going to show you how to fix it. My app was working fine but one day it stopped compiling. Apparently Flutter 1.20 changed the way it uses CocoaPod so the service extension no longer has the proper library configured. After some tinkering, I came up with this pod config, it has to be added to ios/Podfile below the main Runner target. target 'FcmImage' do use_frameworks! use_modular_headers! require File.expand_path('../.symlinks/plugins/firebase_core/ios/firebase_sdk_version.rb', __FILE__) firebase_sdk_version = firebase_sdk_version! pod 'Firebase/Messaging', "~> #{firebase_sdk_version}" end FcmImage is my extension name, replace it with yours We can use a hardcoded version for Firebase/Messaging pod but doing so m

If you that laz y , try to click the "y" to get direct link to 2007f version. Extract the package and open the Terminal to the new directory before executing these command: make osx EXTRACFLAG

A faster Docker for Mac experience

Docker for Mac is freaking slow, this is known issue for years. I'm switching to docker-machine running within Parallels for now... Image from unsplash.com Install the tools I use brew to quickly install these: brew install docker-machine brew install docker-machine-parallels Create the virtual machine The --driver param and vm name is required. The others are all optional, the default values are quite low so I bumped the specs a bit. docker-machine create --driver=parallels \   --parallels-cpu-count=2 \   --parallels-disk-size=100000 \   --parallels-memory=4096 \   parallels Usage Set up the shell environment: eval $(docker-machine env parallels) Then use the cli as normal: docker ls docker-compose up -d To get the vm IP address: docker-machine ip parallels
