Have I mentioned lately how awesome NSScreencast is? No? Worth the subscription. Check it out if you’re an iOS developer. Or even if you’re not and you want an example of how to do coding screencasts well.
Got tired of dead-end googling so I checked to see if @NSScreencast had covered what I was looking for. Of course he had, 4 years ago. Should have checked there first.
One 13-minute episode of @NSScreencast just paid for the yearly subscription fee in amount of time saved. Do it.
Seriously great stuff even for seasoned developers. I’ve learned a good amount from Ben’s videos.
You can really expand your development horizons in just a few minutes a week with NSScreencast.
Random PSA for iOS developers: @NSScreencast is a great resource, and worth every penny. It’s high quality, practical, and honest.
Can’t say enough good things about @NSScreencast There is gold in the Road Trip DJ Series.
I just reuppped my subscription to @NSScreencast. [An] indespensible resource if you’re into iOS or Mac Development.
Just finished @NSScreencast series on Modern CollectionViews. Strongly recommended. Programmatic UI, nicely structured code, easily approachable explanation style. 👌

Making a Podcast App From Scratch#416
In this episode we update all of the episodes in the background when the application is launched. We leverage Operations to do this work and set the qualityOfService to prefer foreground work that the user is actively requesting.
-
Large File Downloads#239
Downloading large files on iOS represents some unique challenges. Downloads should occur in the background, not confined to a particular view controller. They should be able to report progress on multiple screens, and should be robust enough to survive application suspension and failing network conditions, and respect the user's cellular data plan. In this episode we start a series on downloading large files that will cover all of the above concerns.

Deep Dive with NSOperation#180
In this episode, Ben continues exploring NSOperation-based architecture, this time writing operations that present UI for a login screen, load the Core Data stack, and operations that are composed of multiple lower-level operations.
-
Deep Dive with NSOperation#177
In this episode we discuss dependent NSOperations. Using dependencies you can queue up a bunch of jobs and they will be run in the correct order, having one provide the necessary state for the next one to run. In the example, we take the large Hubble image, scale it down to a more appropriate size, then apply a Core Image filter to it. Each operation is dependent on the one before it, yet they are all queued up at the same time.
-
Deep Dive with NSOperation#176
In this episode we examine the asynchronous (a.k.a concurrent) type of NSOperation where we are doing things that involve callback blocks or delegates.
-
Deep Dive with NSOperation#175
In this episode we take a look at the basics of NSOperation, NSOperationQueue, starting from block operations and moving to custom NSOperation subclasses. We'll also see why it's important to make your operations thread safe.
