  1. @adurdin I suspect you are a terrorist
  2. @ctp I started writing some queue scheduling vs. run loop scheduling but hit a roadblock, I'm going to take a look at it again later
  3. @ac94 I didn't notice that there were other images in the /w cheeseburgers series. lols all round.
  4. @fetchguy if the service were really REST, the client would use whatever verb the search description hypermedia told it to
  5. Getting anxious to play some Modern Warfare 2 already... I haven't played in so long.
  6. @jonathandann I've been doing that for days, it won't leave me alone!!
  7. Multithreading and run loops. Like a bag of helium ferrets.
  8. Spiders on Drugs gets me every time http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHzdsFiBbFc
  9. @fraserspeirs uniformity is power!
  10. Had some very interesting discussions with @jonathandann this afternoon.
  11. @mikeabdullah yeah, how can you tell an object "you're concurrent safe, because I say so" without knowing the implementation?
  12. @kevinhoctor consistency is king. And you still have the freedom to make your getter -isIsVoided, if you really wanted it to :P
  13. @kevinhoctor I dislike that because KVC is orthogonal to KVO, where the 'is' prefix on boolean properties is a KVC convenience only.
  14. @rentzsch what's to say they can't get more efficient in time?
  15. @kevinhoctor NSOperationQueue observes @"isFinished" which means a custom setter needs to be -setIsFinished: for automatic notification
  16. @kevinhoctor sure, if you prefer setters of the form -setIs<key>. But it also muddies the key you're supposed to trigger and observe.
  17. Properties are a concept detached from both methods and instance variables. Overlaps are just a common coincidence.
  18. @kevinhoctor GAH! Don't prefix your properties with 'is' your getter can be, that's not a problem. But the property name should be 'voided'.
  19. Concerned that -setCanDrawConcurrently: breaks encapsulation.
  20. @krazyeric I know what you mean, @ac94 and myself were doing the Chernobyl Spec Ops mission tonight. It took many attempts.
