The Gatekeeper Before I forget what I learned today, I better write it down. Gatekeeper on macOS ensures that properly signed and authentic apps and other executable files, including dylibs and kexts, are executed on your Mac. But if you want to execute an open-source tool installed by brew or some other way on your machine, you will usually see something like this confirmation dialog. In this case, for an app FSNotes installed with brew.

This is a reminder to myself. And to anybody who needs a creative solution to test an event handler directly attached to a DOM node of a react component. Last Friday I ran into the situation to test my react component to ensure that the state updates correctly when the pointerenter and pointerleave event fires. Testing for these events is usually no big deal when you use reactjs in one way or the other (either web or native).

Resize VMWare Disk size VMWare provides an option to resize the Hard disk of a VM. The Settings dialog provides this option under Hard Disk. If the VM is not running and you don’t have a snapshot, the slider is enabled, and you can size the disk to your desired size. I wanted to increase the size of the hard disk from 50 GB to 100 GB. That’s a matter of seconds, and I was ready to go.
