  • 69: I'm a Bus

    This week, we learn about the dangers of Pre-Workout, oddities in the Swift compiler and go on a rant about TestFlight and iTunes Connect. Could your family be at risk of getting too jacked on Pre-Workout to read on the bus? Find out tonight at 11.

        This week, Gordon and our producer, Thom, host a very special episode in which we present a collection of our best-of moments and bloopers.

        Okay who are we kidding, it's all bloopers. Sit back and enjoy this gift from us to you.

        This week, Mark talks about using Swift to connect to a GoPro camera, Gordon learns that Selfie Sticks are a thing, and Mark finally fixes LLDB on his machine. From there, they chat about Apple's newfound openness and we finally get to the bottom of Gordon's feelings on Frozen.

            This week, Mark and Gordon spend a solid 10 minutes discussing the absurdity of the DC Comics Universe. From there, Gordon proudly explains the solution he developed to the network operation retry queue that was discussed last week. That solution is pretty great. So come for that and stay for the Batman discussion.

                With Mark on vacation in sunny SoCal (I have no idea if SoCal is sunny in October, but lets say it is), Gordon sits down with fellow thoughtbot dev and Haskell enthusiast Pat Brisbin to talk about Haskell, Functional Programming, and how it all relates to Swift.

                  This week, Mark and Gordon discuss that darn Internet and the inaugural CocoaLove conference in Philadelphia. From there they go on to discuss failable initializers and other Swift 1.1 features and fixes. Finally the guys address some questions about how they manage monolithic storyboards.
