Thanks for the kind words and advice. I'll keep these minds. The hardest part is how tightly coupled this project is with myself. If it fails, it's me failing, not the team or the project. Given the fact there were 4 UX people and

Currently doing a death march. Not sure how to deal with it once it's done.

The XML api itself should be enough to tell you which one to pick. Then again, I'm thinking this from a developer point of view, guessing how the decision would have been brought up. The things that comes to mind is either A) Massive l

I need to have creative freedom in both design and features. So far I have none, I'm a code monkey with a bunch of Photoshop, UX and "Project Director" goons taking shots. None of them can actually build the end product nor w

The developer hostility in this is astounding.

Thank you, I'm not alone into thinking most UX stuff is BS. Another platform for 'talkers' to look like they build. I understand the concept of making the interface intuitive and easy to use and I am all for it. But my God, s

Hmm, how would one pop to the first page for ones open source tools? Asking because I'd like it to :(

Why waste time doing it on a photoshop canvas when a developer could easily and quickly get an overview with Cocoa and auto layout through storyboard? Background: none.

PSD to iOS as well. I just wish companies would stop wasting resources on photoshop goons and let the engineers who work with the platform & SDK design.

Five years now. It's perfect. One screen, one touch pad, one keyboard.

How well does this work? If it works as intended, then this is great!

Sorry, you're right, but still mean my own issues with dealing with third party libraries, it does help out quickly adding something so I could get to use it.

+1, cocoapods is really great and solves 99% of the issues. EDIT: Issues I had with integrating third party libs into projects as dependencies in the past, not issues in regards to the blog post.

Although my last interviews was one of the best interviews I ever had, I would not say no to this :). As a drop out myself, I appreciate these questions, and yes, I will have to improve my CS fundamentals. Generally when I need to solve a p

I've done a month of exact opposite. Sometimes I didn't eat either. Catch up on WWDC, wrote some cool hacks, update some libraries, write some tests for someone elses library, do some pull requests. Lunch itself is a waste of time

Some HR goon wants to tout their new revolutionary system. The only way they actually look like they get work done.

That's one useless designer.. if the designer does can't produce their own fucking design. That's where we get photoshop monkeys. 30 mb PSD vs someone who can code their design. Your pick.

+1. I'm getting up to speed with Cocoa to the point where I might be faster than a designer with Photoshop... as long as we don't venture into wooden textures. :)

Mostly because you're stating SF as a location for dev roles :) - I guess I was wrong. Thanks for clearing that up. Interesting...

Not being snarky, but what domain knowledge do they have that you can't get?

This is slightly off topic - I get the impression Sqwiggle isn't "doge-fooding". Could be wrong, but that's the impression. I'm hoping to be wrong though.
