Not only that but SO in general is a rather bad source for programming advice - at least for beginners. What you generally see on SO happening: - Statements are being marked as "correct" even though they did not answer the questio

I think that most "massive" view controllers come into existence because many developers don't realize that you can avoid them by combining two features of Objective-C: Class extensions and categories. The ability to add meth

In my experience you spend more time fixing strange Cocoapods issues than you save using it. This is true for both, people using existing pods and for people creating new pods. The whole process is just frustrating IMO. In addition Cocoapod

I still don't agree that it is programmer error per se... but we don't have to agree on that. :) Your idea is somewhat similar to "our" idea... at Objective-Cloud we try to bring Objective-C to the cloud... :) You try to

Thanks for the clarification. I am aware of what you mention in your answer. In my statement I simplified quite a bit. I know that runloops have different modes. What I was saying is that if you just use the "defaults" then you wi

This reminds me a bit of how networking works on OS X and iOS (at least if you are using the "standard APIs" the way they are supposed to be used: The networking that is going on is tied to a runloop. Some apps tie the networking

The ability to send messages to nil is not only there to prevent crashes. It can also be used to make clean APIs or to use APIs with a lot of convenience. It also gives you a lot of flexibility... It allows you to do the error handling on a

I am programming Objective-C for over 10 years now. Alone and together with other people. My co-founder is also a long-term Objective-C developer and we have different "styles" of programming. When I write code I care about style

I don't know this tool but I imagine they want to make very individual prices. They probably want to know who is interested in buying this tool before they tell you a price. Also they probably have lot's of (complicated) pricing m

There are certain aspects of engineering which are definitely science. Science really is just the production of new knowledge with hard facts.

CMake abstracts the generation of platform specific files like Xcode projects, makefiles and Visual Studio projects. This does not mean that you have to write tons if-defs.

I like the idea but wouldn't that also make a lot of legitimate use cases of email too costly? Think of a service like MailChimp.com: They allow you to easily manage and send out newsletters. Computing the hashes for 5000 newsletter re

I had to revoke my wildcard cert a few weeks ago. You can tell them why you did that. As far I know they decide to charge you on a case by case basis. When I revoked my cert I got an email 3 minutes later saying: "Revoked free of charg

Your comment does not do the game justice IMHO. FTL is a solid game and I spent a lot of hours with it. It is true that there are a lot of random events in the game but you can plan a little or let's say: You can improve the odds: For

I wanted to mention this as well. There is actually a closed form (as you indicated). Also good to know: This is or was a interview question at Google. You had to know Moivre-Binet's closed formula from the top of your head to pass.

A JIT compiler is a bit more. When the program is executed the JIT may decide to just interpret the code of a function and not compile it at all. It can selectively transform parts of the code to a better representation. Code that is execut
