PHP code speed comparison

function versus(callable $first, callable $second, $repeat = 100000) {

    $f = microtime(true);
    foreach (range(0, $repeat) as $r) call_user_func($first);
    $firstTimer = microtime(true) - $f;

    $s = microtime(true);
    foreach (range(0, $repeat) as $r) call_user_func($second);
    $secondTimer = microtime(true) - $s;

    printf(
        '%s function is %.2f%% faster (%f vs %f)',
        $firstTimer < $secondTimer ? 'First' : 'Second',
        abs((($firstTimer - $secondTimer) / $firstTimer) * 100),
        $firstTimer, $secondTimer
    );
}

Example

versus(
    function () {
        $str = '!loremipsum';
        return substr($str, 0, 1) === '!';
    },
    function () {
        $str = '!loremipsum';
        return $str[0] === '!';
    }
);

Will print: 

Second function is 36.72% faster (0.142766 vs 0.090349)

Create macOS Big Sur ISO Image File

First download macOS Big Sur From Apple with App Store. Quit installator with ⌘+q, then create new empty volume:

sudo hdiutil create -o /tmp/BigSur -size 16384m -volname BigSur -layout SPUD -fs HFS+J

Mount new volume:

sudo hdiutil attach /tmp/BigSur.dmg -noverify -mountpoint /Volumes/BigSur

Create bootable dmg and copy to new volume:

sudo /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Big\ Sur.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/BigSur --nointeraction

Eject installator:

hdiutil eject -force /Volumes/Install\ macOS\ Big\ Sur

Convert dmg to cdr file:

hdiutil convert /tmp/BigSur.dmg -format UDTO -o ~/Downloads/BigSur

Rename cdr to iso:

mv -v ~/Downloads/BigSur.cdr ~/Downloads/BigSur.iso

Delete original created dmg file:

sudo rm -fv /tmp/BigSur.dmg

Retrieve IP adress of AirPrint Printer

You can use ippfind command that finds services registered with a DNS server or available through local devices. Its primary purpose is to find IPP printers and show their URIs, show their current status, or run commands.

ippfind

Then you get local adress of printer (Internet Printing Protocol (IPP, RFC 2911)):

ipp://3036B5000000.local:XXX/ipp/print

then ping local address

ping 3036B5000000.local

and here we go

PING 3036B5000000.local (192.168.0.108): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 192.168.0.108: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=262.342 ms
64 bytes from 192.168.0.108: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=285.290 ms

our printer has 192.168.0.108
