    This is one of the coolest—and craziest—changes in Swift 3.

    Probably the very best thing to read to understand Trump’s popularity, is this Cracked (!) piece. Amazing:

    And let’s be honest; Trump’s chances in this election are incredibly slim. Why not vote for a conservative you can actually get behind?

    (Honestly, I’m nearly 100% aligned with Clinton on the issues, so I’ll probably be voting for her. But McMullin appeals to my (R) roots.)

    Seriously, lldb. A debugger shouldn’t make it so hard to inspect values. This is ridiculous.

    In order to make it work with an iterator, I have to be even more verbose: (lldb) p print( (Array(nodeIterator) as NSArray).description)
