   That's good advice in the same spirit here's another one. Don't trust in neat websites nor in pretty documentation; always read the code first.

   Another reason to seriously consider using nibs instead of hand coding UIs is Auto Layout. It is way easier to deal with that API in IB. Of course you can in code too. But every new API has its problems. Most commonly, they're a pain to dea

    You could use it to test whether or not you really got a class from NSClassFromString(). For instance: Class _myClass; // aClassName was previously defined if((_myClass = NSClassFromString(aClassName)) == Nil) [NSException rais

    Well, I shouldn't. But I'm gonna bite this one anyway. Who recognized Jonny Ive's talent and gave him a promotion? Anyway, I think the reality distortion field you previously referred is in fact a hyperbole machine created by the media outl

    Your remark should be at the top of this thread just as a remainder not to rely on this code. BTW, another good tip is to always look first at the source code itself, ignoring the documentation or website style. That will keep you away from

    No doubt there's a lot of hard work ahead, for both of us. But you know what? I never saw anything in this life that was worth a damn that didn't involve hard work. The idea is not to shun the hard work but to embrace it. Embrace it with b

    Did you read the article? They cite reliable sources that say this ban on electronics on airliners is nothing but baloney. Anyway, I'm honestly curious... Where's your favorite place, under your bed?

    I've had more than one brand manager tell me that in any other situation, the designer behind the items would be able to walk into a job with them due to their new designs being so good. Thank you for telling us your experience. That was

    I'm always amazed by the lengths forgers go in order to successfully deceive their victims. Specially when only takes the same amount of work, or a little, to achieve uniqueness. Poor bastards, they don't know what they're missing.

    All people want is to be safe. In order to do whatever they want, the powers that be need to feed fear to people. An enemy that threatens people's safety is needed, found, and fought. Whatever the cost is, people can feel safe again. You're

    Great story. It shows that doesn't matter if you are Apple or a solo developer, product naming is hard. Actually, as the OP, I find coding easier. Nevertheless, we can't ship products with placeholder names. I have a little brainstorming pr

    Looks very cool, and the source code is neat which is a plus. I always wanted to make exactly what the OP did, but instead with a pythonic syntax.

    Wrong. Watch the Jobs/Gates interview at '07 D5. He clearly stated he couldn't predict more than five years in this industry. Though, being able to see through five years ahead is quite a feat which he pulled often.
