Adventures in Xcode and the iPhone SDK
I was less than half a mile from home when it simultaneously started to rain and a muscle in my calf cramped up. I chastised myself for having done too many squat walks at the gym. Those involve kneeling with your back straight so that one knee almost touches the ground, standing up and repeating with the other leg to "walk" forward. You look absolutely foolish while doing them, but it's very good exercise that requires strength and balance. It gets my heart pumping too. I usually do three sets of 30, but today I had done two sets of 40 and one of 30. Probably too much, but there I was.

| Book Review: Programming in Objective-C 2.0 (Second Edition) | 2009 01 | ||||
| - learning objective c programming for mac os x and iphone: I have to wonder how much of its intended audience will be reading much of this part either. I can't think too many people with no prior exposure to object oriented C are going to pick this up for their first venture into Mac OS X programming. More likely they'll come from a background even deeper and stronger than mine and will be skimming through the first 300 pages even faster than I did: classes, check - good analogies, not over drawn, basic types, check, inheritance, polymorphism, check, check.. let's get to the OS X stuff! - | |||||

| The iPhone Developers Cookbook | 2010 04 | ||||
| - This book helped clear some confusion about the iPhone SDK: This title was mentioned frequently when I was looking for good books to get me started with iPhone/iPad programming. There were a few negative comments - one particular jibe from a college professor was especially cutting. He's probably one who gets all snitty if a students indentation style doesn't match his own, so I ignored that. - | |||||
