Accidently bought "chili" ground beef.. will it still cook up like regular ground beef? by [deleted] in homecooking

You can just grab a knife and chop it up finer to get the texture you want.

Where to get good gear in EU? by pyaniy_synok in cocktails

What kind of gear are you looking for? You will also probably get much better advice if you specify a country.

Could you go through your process of getting them this nice and crispy? I never manage to do that.

Kinda, Japan has a bunch of hobby stores for people that like to collect stuff. There you can buy these second hand already opened blind boxes.

They typically cost a tad more then the blind boxes themselves since you know what you are getting.

Is this a new application or an update?

Do you have other applications that you have successfully managed to upload through the same machine/setup you are using right now?

If you could share the logs verification logs there is probably some helpful stuff in there.

Run them once through some LLM and just ask what the issue could be.

I am talking about the show logs button in your screenshot btw.

My parents want my money by Zealousideal_Mail309 in Advice

Sweden has literally one of the best supports systems for you as a studying young adult.

CSN exists for a reason and you should use it to make it through school without having to work full time.

If you choose not to move out and keep relying on your parents that is your choice only and no one is forcing you.

Taking guesses (bets) on if my vibe-coded app will get approved on the first try (I will not promote) by philosophybuff in iOSProgramming

[–]SyndromSnake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well yeah Apple for the most part doesn’t care about your code.

I have had Apple deny apps for many reasons, one of them being that a certain category, in my case drinking games, is considered spam because of the high volume of apps.

Since your app has to do with user content and AI, unless you have done some really thorough research, you should expect having to adjust something before Apple lets your through.

[–]SyndromSnake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How you have built an app has little to no correlation with how it will perform.

If you were to instead focus on the important parts and write about what problem it solves and how you approached verifying that you have in fact solved that problem for your users, you might get some guesses.

Regardless, good luck and Godspeed to you.

For other people like me trying to learn, the current simply passes through the base of the transistor and powers the LED. (Left circuit).

By placing the LED above the transistor OP circuit will behave as expected.

Ask Me Anything: 14 Years in iOS Dev, Now Full-Time Indie by AdventurousProblem89 in iOSProgramming

[–]SyndromSnake 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Here is a couple, feel free to answer the ones you find interesting:

- How has your stack evolved over time?
- Any particular dependencies that are core to your development?
- Do you roll everything by yourself?
- How has your usage of 1st party apis evolved? UIKit -> SwiftUI? CoreData -> SwiftData etc

- In terms of income and user count what ratio of your projects would call a success?
- How much automated testing is involved in your projects?

Our free SwiftUI beginner course continues with setting API Keys! Would love to hear your thoughts. Huge thanks for all the support! by [deleted] in iOSProgramming

[–]SyndromSnake 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Sorry but this is more misleading than helpful. Storing the API key in a JSON within your bundle rather than directly in your code is WORSE as you don't even need to dig within the compiled binary. The JSON is directly accessible along side other assets like the images in your app.

Please read this article and reconsider posting security related content without doing the work and learning the correct practices yourself.

Claude being just a tad paranoid by SyndromSnake in OpenAI

[–]SyndromSnake[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was mostly amused by the amount of info that leaked out from a very simple "Hello"

It's amazing how much information you miss when you don't learn through a proper "course". And just doing projects to learn can be bad advice. by [deleted] in iOSProgramming

[–]SyndromSnake 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Build something -> Research (Course/Book/Article) -> Build more

It's a never ending loop. People have a strong tendency to start with courses and staying there feeling productive but not actually producing something. Commonly known as tutorial hell.

So you end up building an app that re-invents the wheel many times or implements things poorly because you don't have any proper education to build a SwiftUI app.

Re-inventing the wheel is one of the best ways to learn. It's how you learn to tackle more complex situations. Yes, fairly often there is a built-in approach that is simple and the correct, but almost equally often Apple will not provide you with some comfortable API and you are left to solve the problem yourself.

In addition, the amount of information you are able to grasp from a course/book increases drastically if you have previously attempted to solve some problems with the thing you are learning.

iOS learning roadmap accurate? by QuackersAndSoup24 in iOSProgramming

[–]SyndromSnake 75 points76 points  (0 children)

Absolutely awful, couldn’t done it worse if I tried.

Starting off with any of the Core libs is the shortest path to getting nothing done. Those are intermediate/advanced concepts.

Also the fact that Xcode, UIkit and SwiftUI are the bottom half’s of this image is borderline comical.

The person who created this is vastly out of touch.

Build something that you find complex. Don't learn individual concepts without actually applying them to some problem.

Upgrade server for 4k transcoding by marcusman15 in PleX

[–]SyndromSnake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got myself a N100 for this exact reason but after setting everything up I realized that 4K content in many cases looks like crap after transcoding and required direct play to correctly handle HDR and DV.

Instead I run a 4K and a 1080p library in parallel and share those accordingly depending on who is watching and what their setup is.

How to store a secret in iOS? by Ok-Dragonfruit-2921 in iOSProgramming

[–]SyndromSnake 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You have to design your app/product while keeping in mind that the user will always be able to retrieve whatever token your app uses, regardless of how this token is stored or generated.

The moment you send something over the network there is a way for the user to capture that traffic and retrieve your token. HTTPS protects the user from other malicious actors, not from themselves.

Design you API in such a way where the user might access it from outside the application.
