XmlSerializer without xml declaration or namespaces

At work we use .Net XML Serialization pretty extensively. The simplest case of XmlSerializer.Serialize produces some ugly XML. I mean, XML with a declaration, some useless w3c xmlns attributes and headaches if you don't intend for your object to be an entire well formed XML doc by itself after serialization. Today I did a little forum searching and pieced together a lot of disparate advice to come to this conclusion. This is what I intend for this blog to be: code complete examples of solutions to fairly obscure problems that have poor forum presence. The way we are all taught to use XML Serialization follows. using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.IO; using System.Text; using System.Xml; using System.Xml.Serialization; namespace ICanHasAnswer [XmlRoot( "MyObject" )] public class MyObject { [XmlElement( "x" )] public int X; [XmlElement( "y" )] p...

UITextView returns nil for UITextInput methods when Selectable is set to false from a nib

This was kind of a bear to find.

Passthrough or Intercept 'blob:' urls in PollyJS

Some background (this was all new to me until this morning): You can create a blob in javascript: let b = new Blob(['a bunch of text'], {type: 'text/plain'}) You can create a blob url for that blob in javascript: let url = URL.createObjectURL() You can then fetch or xhr request that blob url (or put it as an href): fetch(url) .then(r => r.text()) .then(console.log) // prints out "a bunch of text" PollyJS is a library that allows you to run tests (or development) with a client side server or a request replay mechanism with saved real requests, it's pretty slick, and maintained by Netflix. If you configure Polly it with it's fetch and xhr adapters it will expect intercepts or replays to be available for EVERY call that gets made through them. No Bueno. From the docs, it wasn't intuitive that you can filter on ANY part of the url in your route handlers. Here's how you would do that for blob: let server = ... // configu...
