Congrats Lemon. Ben and Marc are both ridiculous Gs in their own right, and I'm glad you guys hooked it up.

We once had 2 links on HN front page for http://backspac.es for the better part of a day -- although neither made it to number one spot -- running only 1 dyno. Something like 18K uniques. Also had two techcrunch posts about something I ma

THIS. Referrals are how all great freelancers I know work. Word spreads very quickly if you produce quality work in a reasonable time frame and have solid estimation skills.

I agree, there are a lot of people who don't learn that well like that. Visual programming makes it a bit more approachable but whether or not it helps learn beyond the first couple lessons (or is overkill) -- I'm not sure. With a lot of th

Cool demos, but very long article for what I thought he was trying to express. Bunch of thoughts, I enjoy thinking about this, so would love some conversation around any of the points: If programming is a way of thinking/problem solving, I'

I upvoted this the first time I read this for your point on risk aversion. The thing that I disagree with is that people move to the US to make more money. I had a job that paid very well in the US and there's a very good chance I would hav

I am not a lawyer so my obviously it depends on what you are like. If you are someone who can get shit done, have enough money to last a year on your own, and don't have a wife or kids there's not much stopping you. I just didn't think it w

Definitely fair point. There are plenty of Canadian entrepreneurs who absolutely crush it, and definitely appreciate "success". I could have said "Building something great out of nothing and trying to be the best" is very much embedded into

As a Canadian who has lived in NYC for 2 years, and just had to go back to Canada for 2 weeks, this is spot on. There are tons of smart Canadians due to the great education system, but Canadians in general don't appreciate success in the sa

I used it to speed up the iOS dev on http://www.backspac.es as I had no experience with iOS but lots of backend experience. Honestly, they have a lot of downtime, and now that I am very handy with iOS/obj-c I plan to migrate off.

If you have quality headphones I don't think it's very hard. On earbuds, or laptop speakers, almost impossible. Put it on a real stereo and you will also be able to. Perhaps the fact that music is now being produced and optimized to sound g

That's fair. if you are looking for full functionality, I suggest you merge Parse's AnyPic ( https://github.com/ParsePlatform/Anypic ) with this camera picker component. IG is much more than just filters, but it is definitely a big reason t

Yup. I made sure the second line in the repo readme was "The majority of the praise should be directed towards BradLarson for his GPUImage library."

Nah it works, his issue was because I used xibs. To be fair, the front camera is buggy because of this sometimes though.

by zmitri 14y ago
Awesome. Sorry about the xib thing, should redo programmatically, but to be honest we kinda did this over the weekend while waiting for apple to get us approved

what version of xcode are you using? I used IB so maybe inconsistency in xib format?

Any more details? I recently added a device check for flash and didn't test on iPhone 4. Will look into it.

Hey Mizza, you read the github page here https://github.com/gobackspaces/DLCImagePickerController#rea... for more info. I think open-source obj-C has a long way to go, and I want to help as much as I can. As for "fake-shitty" I assure you
