I say that because I've found them to be quite handy as I write a book.

I’ve decided that Storyboards were created primarily for book and tutorial authors. That’s why they don’t hold up well in the real world.

I think that @justin 's Auto Layout book is worth the money just for putting the opening braces on new lines in Swift.

For every noob who can’t do something nefarious, there are lots of people who can, and are smart enough to not post about it in public.

If you want to be afraid of what your apps are actually doing, spend time on dev forums watching the requests of people who lack the skills.

Oh, what things could have been… @set[ … ]; @mutableSet[ … ]; @array[ … ]; @mutableArray[ …]; @dictionary[ … ]; @mutableDictionary[ … ];

Xcode Pro-tip: When using Cmd-/ to un/comment a line, you do not have to highlight the entire line. Cursor anywhere in the line will do it.
