According to the NSTimer documentation, NSTimer objects are not guaranteed to be realtime accurate on iOS.
A timer is not a real-time mechanism; it fires only when one of the run loop modes to which the timer has been added is running and able to check if the timer’s firing time has passed. B...
> The whimsical notion that Android is an open platform is a tattered fabrication that has been stretched beyond the average open source software enthusiast's capacity to suspend disbelief.
After reading Jeff's and Robert's weigh-in on the matter, my funny jokes seemed less funny. And so while I've got an acceptance speech all written and in my vest pocket, perhaps it's best if I just wing-it and thank The Academy Tavern, and my lovely dog Spot, and the FSM.
Thank you for the 500 r...
I've added a handful of favorite tags and some inexplicable integer tags show up alongside the tags I entered. Although the screenshot below doesn't show it, sometimes an integer plus the name of a tag I've entered shows up, like "457-ruby." I delete these tags and then they show up again. See th...
@balpha Since they're sequential, my best guess is that for some reason they're the number of the link element on the page (my favourite tags are around $('a').eq(570), so different tags -> question set with more tags / question -> .eq(6xx-ish)) and they have some bizarre extension, like vimperator
@TimStone they somehow endet up in the database like that -- it's probably still a client side issue. the code that saves your favorite tags to the server just takes $("#interestingTags").text() and sends that; so some weird extension for example adding content all over the DOM, that's one reason I can imagine
(vimperator isn't to blame by the way, I just used it as an example of numbering links :p)
I just seriously screwed up a branch merge. Why does this kind of stuff happen on a Friday? Isn't it illegal for things to break on Fridays? Shouldn't merges be illegal from Thursday to Tuesday?
Serious question here. I love programming. I've been messing around with code since I was a kid. I never went the professional route, but I have coded several in-house apps for various employers, including a project I got roped into where I built an internal transaction management/reporting syste...
a) I can't respond to flags on this chat.
b) I don't know what "duplicate room" is.
c) can you post the actual referenced quote from 4 hours ago? (presuming I understand what you mean)
@drachenstern Sure, Today a room created for Mobile Application development for Android and Iphone, but i saw Allready Iphone and Android rooms , that's why i flaged it as duplicate room
The x in a circle that allows you to remove a tag from your favourite tag list, it shouldn't linewrap:
This is on Chrome 10.0.648.127 on Ubuntu 10.10.
(Oh, and the Add buttons are actually legitimately missing their right borders, that's not an artifact of the screenshot.)
quick question: if I reach daily cap (+200), then start a bounty (let's say -50), can I then regain the lost rep during the day (and finish at +200) or am I now capped at a total of +150?
@RebeccaChernoff Ah yeah, the responses tab does that nicely. It'd be cool if the favorites tab worked the same way, but I'm still having a hard time picturing how it'd work without requiring two separate views.
I'm talking from the "I can't remember what I viewed last" camp ;)
I typically remember what I have and haven't seen, but for most people I think if there are multiple changes it's hard to digest what's new and what isn't.
If there are four new answers and three new comments, I'd get a yellow highlighting of the question, with a ?lastactivity link that only showed me the most recent change.
So you miss out on some of those new answers and new comments unless you realize that that's what changed, and there's nothing to highlight on that page as far as those parts go.
Now, if the favorites tab was like the responses tab, that'd work with the highlighting. However, if there weren't any changes, I wouldn't want to see that kind of play by play list, since in those cases I'm usually going to the tab just for the link to the question (which is where my "two separate presentations" comment came into play earlier)
Ah, ha! I may have finally figured out why I would sometimes end up on Amazon instead of Delicious: I usually open a new browser window, hit CTRL+D to select the address bar and then, try to, type 'del'.
Apparently, I was typing 'el,' probably since I had pressed CTRL+D. That was matching 'Electronics' and "Apparel' in the title on Amazon's homepage.
@Moshe Decide on an interface for getting the data. Then design a class to provide that interface for actually getting the data. You may want to create a class to handle the interaction between the GUI and the data retrieval class. (Basically an MVC approach) That way, the event handlers are dead simple, w/ very little logic in them.
@Moshe Ah yes, I forgot about that distinction. It could certainly be an actual Interface, but that would probably be much more work than is worth for a small application. I was referring to the the methods in the class.
Yes, and their signatures, return types, all that.
