I installed the NVIDIA Web Driver on my MacBook Pro (Mid 2014 w/ GT750M) due to sluggish High Sierra. At first, it seemed to improve the graphics performance a bit. However, when I tried to restart the MacBook later, it just stuck on Apple logo with progress bar not finishing moving.

In Safe Boot, I can’t access the NVIDIA Driver Manager. Right now my solution is to clear the Macbook’s NVRAM (nonvolatile random-access memory). Caution: it will also reset several other settings. The method is: press Option, Command, P, and R together, and then start the computer.

If you have better solutions, please leave your comments. Thanks.

Several times after I force-restart my Mac (recently in High Sierra), I found Safari lost all its saved passwords. It seems the Mac loses the keychain containing these passwords. The solution may be simple:
Go to System Preferences -> iCloud, if “Keychain” is unchecked, check it. Then all passwords should be accessible in Safari again.

  1. Disable “duplicated code” detection
    • Settings → Editor → Inspections → General → Duplicated Code
    • (Or better) in the source code, use @SuppressWarnings(“Duplicates”)
    • Ref.: stackoverflow
  2. Show source file structure
    1. From menu: “View” -> “Tool Windows” -> “Structure”
    2. Quick key: CMD + 7
  3. Reformat all codes under a folder: in Project view, select the folder, then Code -> Reformat Code
