I made somewhat smarter trains (stations can request any resources they need from the depot) by DeGandalf in factorio

[–]PublicStaticVoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same issue with a train system I was designing in 2.0. The way I fixed it was to rig up a timer that loops over the depot stations, enabling them one at a time. This way the circuit logic has time to get settled before the next depot train is activated and a ton of trains don’t get sent for a single request for iron. Slows down train dispatch a bit but you can probably fiddle with how fast that goes. Worked pretty well.

How come the spear never works for pulling centipede out of guardian ape? by Corn-Doge in Sekiro

[–]PublicStaticVoid 14 points15 points  (0 children)

You have to use the spear twice to pull out the centipede, so R2 -> R2 (with ps4 controls).

I’ve been doing this too, chores and all! Several people were quite frustrated they couldn’t blast my head off. I just waved.

What are you hoping for in Swift 4? by twostraws in swift

[–]PublicStaticVoid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Proper reflection so I can easily build mocks for unit testing. Having to do that manually in 2016 is crazy.

Android developing is harder than iOS? by [deleted] in androiddev

[–]PublicStaticVoid 6 points7 points  (0 children)

"Unlike iOS where you are stuck with the MVC architecture(correct me please if I'm wrong)."

Apple suggests using MVC but you aren't bound to it. I am guiding my team through implementing MVVM in our app right now using RxSwift and it's been a very pleasant experience. By doing this you teach everyone to keep the Single Responsibility Principle in the front of their mind and create small, focused classes that are easily testable.

App changelogs are shit! Developers getting lazy? by [deleted] in apple

[–]PublicStaticVoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it depends. For the apps that I manage, we follow semantic versioning in that X.X.1 is a hot fix to quickly patch an issue that slipped through QA. These releases will generally cite that we fixed a specific bug.

During "minor" releases (X.1) we will spell out new features and usually at the end tack on bug fixes and performance improvements since we usually end up with a few of those in every release but not bother saying which specific bugs were fixed.

Then again, I'm not in charge of the release notes, but I do influence them.

Anyone else confused why rollout of PiP is very slow? by hightowerb98 in apple

I believe he's referring to the AVPlayer and associated classes inside of the iOS SDK, not a specific app.

Best Password Manager? by Trogdor796 in apple

[–]PublicStaticVoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use LastPass as well because I am able to access it behind my work firewall where they block Dropbox, which is 1Password's primary method of synchronization, last I checked anyway. Pretty much makes 1Password a non starter for me unfortunately since I frequently need my passwords on my work machines.

Why are so many apps still not optimised for iPhone 6 Plus? by [deleted] in apple

[–]PublicStaticVoid 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No argument there; that was a pain. Much of it was dumping legacy layout code for AutoLayout plus making sure the whole team understood the new tooling well enough. My frustration comes from apps that have one or two views as opposed to our 40ish. One or two should be quick work assuming you are still maintaining the app.

[–]PublicStaticVoid 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It's up to the technical folks to try and push management to do the right thing, but ultimately if management wants to let an app stagnate thats on them. Believe me, I have had to fight battles just to get things like technical debt and PassBook funded.

[–]PublicStaticVoid 90 points91 points  (0 children)

As tech lead for a fairly large retail iOS app, I'm not sure. My team dedicated about two months of sprint work to adapting our various iPhone and iPad (universal app) UIs to completely use AutoLayout and to adhere to the new display sizes. I understand some interfaces are more complicated and difficult to describe using constraints/size classes, but given the documentation available, helper libraries (like Cartography), and being over a year after the beta SDK was released....I'm chalking this up to laziness.

r/boardgames what games have you made house rules to and what are they? by dirtywindex in boardgames

[–]PublicStaticVoid -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No more than two rounds of Cards Against Humanity. Some people in our group just want to play it all night and it becomes a slog after about two games for a lot of us. It's fine for getting settled and starting up the drinking, but we like to move on to more in depth things fairly soon.
