swift - How do I "combine" an un-zoned date and a time zone? -


my question similar get "time time zone" "time without time zone" , time zone name (i think). want in swift.

anyway, trying write function following signature:

func combine(_ date: date, timezone: timezone) -> date?

what takes in date , returns "zoned" date. if date not exist in time zone, returns nil.

to avoid being xy question, here screenshot:

enter image description here

i'm asking user date , time zone , want combine these 2 1 single date.

i'll try best explain. express dates in format of timeintervalfrom1970 make clear possible.

say pass in 0 date , gmt-1 time zone, it'll return 3600. 0 1970-1-1 00:00:00. 1970-1-1 00:00:00 in gmt-1 1970-1-1 01:00:00 in gmt, 3600.

this how tried implement this:

return date.addingtimeinterval(-timezone.secondsfromgmt(for: date))

this seems work not of time. however, don't think returns correct results if dst gets involved , whole thing becomes messy. feels "math-ish". prefer approach without math, using foundation api methods.

so, how can implement method?

in example, api gives date, want interpret "2017/08/18 8:08" in given time zone. assuming eureka forms ui element uses timezone of current calendar display, can convert date datecomponents, , date different timezone.

func combine(_ date: date, timezone: timezone) -> date? {     var cal = calendar.current     let comp = cal.datecomponents([.era, .year, .month, .day, .hour, .minute, .second], from: date)     cal.timezone = timezone     return cal.date(from: comp) }

nil returned if day/time combination not exist in other timezone.

Is there a better way to structure post methods in Class Based Views -

i'm using class based views in django , never specify url in ajax calls , omit action parameter in form because know these requests go through post method of class based view. notice view - profile page make many requests depending on user updating on page - post method become convoluted , if/else mess example: def post(self, request, *args, **kwargs): # handle user changing available date if request.post.get('availabledate') != none: self.updateavailabledate(request) return jsonresponse({'result':'success'}) if request.post.get('newprojectname') != none: creative_user = creativeuserprofile.objects.get(id = request.user.id) project = project.create_project(creative_user, request.post['newprojectname']) project.save() return jsonresponse({'projectid': project.id }) if request.post.get('projectimage') != none , request.files['file']: proj

performance - Why is XCHG reg, reg a 3 micro-op instruction on modern Intel architectures? -

i'm doing micro-optimization on performance critical part of code , came across sequence of instructions (in at&t syntax): add %rax, %rbx mov %rdx, %rax mov %rbx, %rdx i thought had use case xchg allow me shave instruction , write: add %rbx, %rax xchg %rax, %rdx however, dimay found agner fog's instruction tables , xchg 3 micro-op instruction 2 cycle latency on sandy bridge, ivy bridge, broadwell, haswell , skylake. 3 whole micro-ops , 2 cycles of latency! 3 micro-ops throws off 4-1-1-1 cadence , 2 cycle latency makes worse original in best case since last 2 instructions in original might execute in parallel. now... cpu might breaking instruction micro-ops equivalent to: mov %rax, %tmp mov %rdx, %rax mov %tmp, %rdx where tmp anonymous internal register , suppose last 2 micro-ops run in parallel latency 2 cycles. given register renaming occurs on these micro-architectures, though, doesn't make sense me done way. why wouldn't register renamer

jquery - Responsive Navbar with Sub Navbar -

good day, forgive me nav vocabulary not best. if question confusing apologize. i'm working on navigation bar needs centered on page @ 768px , above. items in nav open (or perhaps toggle) subnav lives directly below. these nav should appear centered on page. i have been able work through responsive portion of nav bar, having main items align vertically , sub nav menu of each item roll out below, , gave them indent separation. working well. however, issue not responsive side, behavior @ width greater 768px. happens toggling menu's sub navigation pushes other main items down page below sub nav. here's code: $(document).ready(function () { //stick in fixed 100% height behind navbar don't wrap $('#slide-nav.navbar-inverse').after($('<div class="inverse" id="navbar-height-col"></div>')); $('#slide-nav.navbar-default').after($('<div id="navbar-height-col"></d
