I am a mobile developer, mostly working with iOS. I live in London which is where most of my work is. I particularly enjoy rambling about Objective-C in depth and solving problems by diving right into the guts of the runtime or the object code itself. Nothing beats a hard to solve problem!
For my day job, I am the founder of Swipe Stack Ltd which is a team of passionate app developers & designers. We create apps for all sorts of clients and even some of our own when we get time.
I also write for the excellent RayWenderlich.com website and co-authored iOS 6 by Tutorials, a book guiding readers through topics in a tutorial layout. It covers all the topics introduced in iOS 6 and more.

Easy way to detect if I am using framework not available to older iOS @randallmeadows You could easily create something that's similar for Mac - just change MJGAvailability.h to do the right thing with the equivalent #defines for Mac. I'll try to update it if I get time.

Why does this code cause "EXC_BAD_INSTRUCTION"? @bandejapaisa - Because if you look in this file - opensource.apple.com/source/libdispatch/libdispatch-187.7/src/… - you'll see that DISPATCH_CLIENT_CRASH is defined as _dispatch_set_crash_log_message which is defined as nothing. I guess that's there so that a developer can set the define to actually print something during debug.

How do I include images into a library in iOS/Xcode 4 @Adam - Hehe OK fair enough :-). I use the Facebook comments because it's just easier. Could use Disqus but I just thought I'd use Facebook. Thanks for feedback though! |

Session expire design pattern Hey Chris! Sadly, no. It's still a pattern I've not solved entirely and remains a tricky one! There probably isn't a silver bullet right now :-(. |

How to distribute multiple versions of my app? @esbenr Agreed. This is a problem with HockeyApp as well. I wish it didn't do this :-(. |

Text string with EMOJI causing issues with NSRange Oh, great, that's fine then :-). Although I guess what if you have 2 entities with the same text but linking to different places. Still, glad you solved! |

Objective-C: Type signature of blocks with block return types @H2CO3 - You're missing out on some neat optimisations then that the compiler & runtime can make. Check out my blog for more details. |
