When writing the Spring4D unit tests for GetTypeSize to include as many TTypeKind values, I came across a few types that either did not compile, or were not supported by TypeInfo. I listed them below as I could not find them in the documentation.
I included a test named Test_EnsureAllTTypeKindsCoveredByCallsTo_Test_GetTypeSize_ that verifies that all TTypeKind values except tkUnknown are covered. So future extensions of TTypeKind will make the tests fail.
As a side issue, I really wanted to know if tkUnknown could be emitted by the compiler. It can sort of, for instance by defining discontiguous enumerations, but are incompatible with TypeInfo as well.

I’m a command-line addict, so this was a great SuperUser question by Željko Filipin:
I know how to find Mac OS X version from GUI: Apple Menu (top left) > About This Mac
Is there a Terminal command that will tell me Mac OS X version?
It was answered by User delfuego:
You have a few options:
sw_vers -productVersion
system_profiler SPSoftwareDataType
These commands led me to this post: Finding OS X Version and Build Information From the Command Line | The Nubby Admin that also showed these commands:
uname -a
osascript -e 'system info'
Where uname shows only the kernal version, oascript gives a ton of information. Read the rest of this entry »

I had my userid jeroenp show on all my commits, issues and other activity on BitBucket, though in SourceTree, hg config, gitconfig, etc I had configured my full name.
The fix was simple:
In my case, the full name was all in the First name field, then BitBucket thinks you don’t have a real name.
