Show Notes

  • Non-developers might want to skip the first 35 minutes: a technical discussion of FMDB, SQLite, and implementing your own generic "model" class. Plus: Casey finally gets to talk about .NET. (Note from Marco: The day after recording, I rewrote my model class to rely on KVC instead of runtime tricks and reflection. Please email Casey.)
  • The types of programmers who can and should write their own low-level classes.
  • Casey's app, Fast Text, and why he wrote it in 2010.
  • John's unfulfilled app idea and name.
  • Getting yourself moving on an iOS app.
  • Victory Lap for Ask Patents.
  • A 29-minute after-show extravaganza about lazy input sanitization and parameterization, extremely difficult games, eggs, and beaches.
