Filter android logcat by package name on command line
Recently, I wrote a shell script for filtering android logcat log by package name, which is a shame that it's not a default option on logcat.

Force Intel Graphics on 2012 Retina MacBook Pro (MacBookPro10,1) in Linux
If you install linux under BootCamp (emulated BIOS mode), then the only graphics card you will see is the discrete one (NVIDIA), so if you want to use Intel Graphics, you must install it under EFI mode. There are plenty of blog posts mentioned about this, so I won't talk about it.
So the main focus here is how to switch to Intel Graphics, so that macbook can consume less battery power. Although after linux is booted up, two graphics card are available, it seems like gmux, which is used by mac to control which chip for display, is wired to NVIDIA chip. And use
The only way I found is to add some commands into grub, according to those two posts (Switch graphics on MacBookPro9,1 and Intel Graphics on a 2011 MacBook Pro in Linux). However, the command mentioned in those two posts don't seem to work on my 2012 Retina MacBook Pro. After some digging, I found inside latest apple-gmux linux driver, a new way for communicating with gmux chip is used (so called "indexed" read/write) for newer models.
The way to do is following.

The only workaround I found for this problem is probably power down the discrete chip after system is fully booted up. And this C program should do the trick. Compile with gcc, and run it with
