My first Amazon prime day sale item. It’s 50% off! Check it out at this Amazon link.
We can definitely put that extra 50 MB to good use in our games. It’ll also cut down on a lot of crashes and zendesk tickets related to downloading the content we had to cut to fit in 100 MB.

Homepod is nice, but Apple needs to open up it’s API to compete with the Echo. There are just too many useful skills that my Echo has for me to give it up. I feel like if you wanted good speakers for music you’d just get Sonos speakers. Apple pricing it way too much compared to an Echo feels like a wrong move.
Homebrew is an awesome package manager. For their home page see https://brew.sh/. However they did some refactoring in April 2017, and a lot of the information online on how to go back to a previous version of a package no longer works.
In my particular case I needed emscripten 1.36.5, and brew was giving me 1.37.10. Replace emscripten in the Terminal commands below with your particular package.
brew tap homebrew/core --full cd /usr/local/Homebrew/Library/Taps/homebrew/homebrew-core brew log --oneline emscripten
You will see git hash on the left column, and the bunch of versions on the right column. example below. Take note of the git hash that corresponds to the package version you want. In my case I want 1.36.5, so I choose d876a63 .
555a07d emscripten: update 1.37.10 bottle.
b590498 emscripten 1.37.10

a94599d emscripten 1.36.4
3194b7f emscripten: update 1.36.3 bottle.
You should check the terminal output that the old version that you want is now being installed
At this point emscripten is now pinned to 1.36.5 and won’t get upgraded accidentally.
