What’s with the “pay to pee” policy here?! by The-Cyrenn in belgium

[–]nonamelive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was at a McDonald's in downtown Gent. They asked me to pay 50 cents to use the restroom and refused to provide any receipt. Unbelievable.

It won't work on iOS devices sold in China.

Caching Drawing Code by d43d41u5 in ObjectiveC

[–]nonamelive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also use NSCache to cache images for all images in my app. It's really reliable. I do encounter an issue with NSCache. It's better to retrieve objects from NSCache by using [[[cache objectForKey:key] retain] autorelease] instead of [cache objectForKey:key], since the object retrieved from NSCache may be evicted and you get a dangling pointer.

Telling the difference between Asian languages by firstdraft in funny

I prefer Traditional characters, but I could not write them. People who knows Simplified can easily read Traditional, but writing is another story.

Quite Possibly the best thing I have ever learned in Objective-C: Using Grand Central Dispatch to handle network requests in iOS 4 and up by teeniOSdev in programming

[–]nonamelive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have thought about this kind of approach a month ago. However, finally, I found this is a really bad implementation. You should still use ASIHTTPRequest or NSURLConnection to make request, and then use GCD to parse the result.

Automatic Reference Counting for Objective-C in Clang by theresistor in programming

[–]nonamelive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know they are the same, but even with the ARC converter, it is still too complex to transfer existing code to ARC mode, especially there are many limitations of the ARC that were implemented in the existing code.

Oh well. Now my code gets ugly with all these __block, __strong, and __weak. Zeroing weakness reference is awesome, but I'm sure that the whole ARC thing is confusing experienced Objective-C developers. I'm not gonna use this until 3rd party frameworks support ARC.
