Came accross this tweet. I was sure code from tweet (below) will print all but 3 elements of array:

var array = [3, 2, 1]
array.removeAll(where: { $0 == array.count })
print(array) // I expected "[2, 1] to be printed

I was sure that array.count will be copied by value into closure passed into removeAll(where:) and removeAll will filter out 3 value from array. I was wrong. Code crashes in runtime because of not exclusive access to array. The error:

Simultaneous accesses to 0x107cf0090, but modification requires exclusive access.
Previous access (a modification) started at (0x107cec44c).
Current access (a read) started at:
...

So run removeAll starts modification. And then capturing of array.count attempt to run read when modification is running and fails. To make code work as I described earlier it’s sufficient to capture whole array in closure:

var array = [3,2,1]
array.removeAll(where: { [array] in $0 == array.count })
print(array) // prints [2, 1]

Or better capture explicitely only count:

var array = [3,2,1]
array.removeAll(where: { [count = array.count] in $0 == count })
print(array) // prints [2, 1]

While digging in stdlib jumped to read about underestimatedCount Inside the Standard Library: Sequence.map().

TIL where local config file for git is stored - it’s .git/config. I expected it be just .config because global config is ~/.gitconfig.
