This sorta feels like a defeatist attitude. "Oh it requires a different sort of a brain" and etc. Not sure I agree nor even would want to agree. It's also insulting to those who do both. I'm trying to do both (still lear

I never said programming was easy. I don't expect nor would want all software engineers to be good at design either. That be ing said, are you building front-facing products (say iOS or a front-end for a web application) you'd be

You want to design on iOS? Hire an engineer familiar with UIKit Mac OS? Appkit Web? JS,CSS & HTML. Etc etc. Basically only hire designers that can write their design. A .PSD isn't much value to you. Then again I'm getting more

Would be cool to know what kind of problems is in hiring? Salaries too high? Too few people? Not enough within 60 miles?

It's basically observing properties on NSObject subclassed classes. It doesn't work properly with UIKit, but most other stuff it works 'fine'. According to some smarter people than myself, the internals of KVO is a giant

You probably want to do three things 1) Extract all network layer into its own stuff. We built an SDK recently, and I decided to make three layers out of it. SDK -> OAuth2 -> Networking 2) Separate that 1000 lines of code into several

Yeah I figure, but notice how Apple keep their documentation outside of their interface file. Try that. It makes it easier to learn.

Went through their iOS SDK. What's up with people shoving so much shit into their public facing API (the interface). I don't need all those comments if you could name your selectors properly (which you did) You took a file that co

Your financial adviser is charging you to use index funds. Your financial adviser isn't an adviser, but a salesperson. Your financial adviser might make extra cash on the courtage you pay by getting a commission. And etc. Index Funds &

Lets call them what they really are. Photoshop designer. That pretty much defines you.

Why is the assumption I didn't read the article? What's even more curious is that not only do you start with the assumption that I did not read the article, you also go ahead and question yourself wether or not you fully understoo

You don't think the engineers platform specific knowledge will have any impact what so ever? And where do you draw the line between engineering and designing? An engineer can design their design as they go along and iterate on it. Re

This article pisses me off something immensely. How about you learn to fucking code your own design? 'Yet we’re at the mercy of our teams. We can design beautiful, intricate, delightful details — but we can’t build, test, and deploy th

Who the fuck brags about this? Who the fuck thinks this is a good thing? This happened to me recently. More than 70h per week. But that's not. The fact of the matter is, I was the sole programmer on the product and the product is so a

A ton. None of it is owned by me though. My own code, that I own (open sourced mostly) is actually well tested and amazing. That's because I can take my own time and sit down for four hours and just think of stuff like naming functions

Sometimes I feel the same way. Other times I feel stupid 'not to get it' I did sit down to make a comparison to their readme. https://github.com/seivan/SHRACComparison Still not getting it.

SpriteKit itself isn't a physics engine, it comes with one Also, the Physics Engine isn't 'similar' to Box 2D - it _IS_ Box 2D with an OBJ-C wrapper. Same thing applies to UIKit Dynamics, except it plays along with UIKit
