Fatal Error

Chris and Soroush discuss Uncle Bob's controversial blog post about languages with type systems that he finds too strict.

The Law of Demeter (also known as the Principle of Least Knowledge) shows up occasionally in code reviews and discussions of object-oriented programming practices. But what does it actually mean, and why should we use it?

To kick off this season of Fatal Error, Chris and Soroush discuss code generation in Swift: what, why, and how?

Chris and Soroush spent the last 18 weeks discussing the things they think are important to consider in building software. In the final episode of Fatal Error Season 1, they make the case for why it's important to think about these concepts — and just as crucially, how to use technical debt effectively.

Today on Fatal Error: a crash course on a bunch of useful concepts for testing iOS apps in Swift.

Soroush tells Chris about some of his takeaways from Eric Evans (https://www.infoq.com/author/Eric-Evans)'s book, Domain-Driven Design (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0321125215/), and they discuss how we can apply some of its lessons in our day-to-day thinking about iOS development.

A responsibility is an axis of change — a potential motivation for change.

Singletons get a bad rap. Why? Should you use them in your application? And if you've inherited several of them, what should you do?

This week, Chris and Soroush finally get to the topic they've been waiting for since they started the podcast: reactive programming. Chris gives a high level intro, and they dive into Q&A.
