Change in Swift behaviour with didSet property observer for @published property in Xcode 11.4
/*
In Xcode 11.3.1, the output is:
>>> setting n to -1
sending value through valueDidChange publisher
situation negative("hello")
<<< done
>>> setting n to 1
sending value through valueDidChange publisher
situation positive("hello")

Please help me understand why the Swift 2.2 compiler in Xcode 7.3.1 says the class does not conform to the protocol

This is how I'd write the sample code rewritten using JRErr. I think it's clean and concise, and doesn't need any tricks. (Not tested, may have bugs ;))
- (BOOL)incrementBuildNumberInFile:(NSURL *)fileURL error:(NSError **)error
{
BOOL result = NO;
static NSString * const sErrorDescription = @"Unrecognized File Format";
static NSString * const sBuildNumberKey = @"BuildNumber";
NSError *localError = nil;
NSData *fileData = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:fileURL options:0 error:&localError];
if (fileData)

This is what I get when selecting the shell script at http://www.doubleencore.com/2013/06/tutorial-finding-calls-to-uniqueidentifier-in-your-ios-app/ and copying it to the clipboard.
for match in $(grep -lR uniqueIdentifier *); do printf "File:%s\n\n" $match; otool -v -s __TEXT __objc_methname $match | grep uniqueIdentifier; printf "\n\n"; done; - See more at: http://www.doubleencore.com/2013/06/tutorial-finding-calls-to-uniqueidentifier-in-your-ios-app/#sthash.kV1BoNc0.dpuf

Letter to the Apple Developer Program regarding last night's developer site outage.
Last night the developer site went offline. It should come as no surprise that this immediately sent many people into panic mode thinking WWDC tickets would be available when the site came back online.
I didn't get to go to WWDC last year because tickets went on sale while I was sleeping, so this year I've signed up for every service I can find to tell me when tickets go on sale, and I run scripts to check the WWDC site. Everyone knows that if WWDC is capped at 5K tickets as it has been, they'll sell out in record time this again year.
You guys are just as aware of this as the rest of us are.
And yet, despite knowing that tickets weren't going to be for sale when the site returned, you chose not to communicate this to the thousands of Apple developers on Twitter that had become chained to their computers last night in anticipation.
This is totally disrespectful. I understand why ticket sales aren't pre-announced, but please don't make this any worse than it has to be. If you're going to take the site offl

Putting a category on model classes to specialize UI/layout code for each model type
// In MyViewController.m
@interface BaseModelClass (MyViewControllerLayout)
// If your model classes don't have a common superclass, put
// this category on NSObject instead
