Nice to have the quick charge as an option, but slower charging is better for the battery longterm.

This post gave me instant anxiety 😆

Can’t imagine how daunting that would be now with all the hoops you have to jump through in interviews

Xcode correctly wrote all the code for implementation after adding a few variables 👏
Unfortunately for the next part of the interview the it almost seemed over confident and wrote lots of suggested code when given little detail. None of it was what was needed
Some great potential in this

I would love to see an overhaul of TVos, it’s a great simple interface, but I would love to see some API’s and frameworks that would make devs want to make apps for it (other than streaming)

Reminds me of Facebook. First it was notifications when your friends tagged you. Then when a friend posted something. Then it was just when anyone posted

Aces, I was a little sceptical about getting these, but I absolutely love them. They seem way more consistent and connected than a lot of other smart lighting I have tried. Just wish there were more options from HomeKit

We were able to have a frank discussion about the process and I felt the team took my feedback very seriously. Hopefully no one else will have to go through that as a result
But man, what a bummer !

One of the interviewers asked ‘what are you thinking?’
I replied ‘I think this process isn’t working for me’
Both interviewers appeared shocked
The beloved the process was going well, but would have liked to have seen more TDD.

After 2.5 hours I was pretty stressed about not making enough progress to have something to present. I hit a bug with a test failing, simple rounding issue but being stressed, I would have normally just googled the solution if I was stuck. But in a pair assessment I felt I couldn’t do that

Unfortunately the more the pairing session went on the more it just became two devs offering sitting in silence with the occasional nudge on TDD.

Then into pairing. The devs were super focused on TDD, however my mind was completely on getting something to present to the product owner in a couple of hours, plus the huge gotcha issue that I hadn’t event considered a solution for.

Being in a redundancy situation I decided to peruse anyways, the role and the team seemed really good.
The interview started with the product owner stating the problem. Multi stage discount with some additional complexities and a gotcha
Straight into writing stories, didn’t get time to finish

Me, I found mastodon a little clunky and threads just full of engagement bait. Bsky seems to have a lot of the iOS crowd from twitter (before the fall)

Oh btw I am an iOS dev for the last 10+ years. Hardly a public figure, but def going to be using this platform for iOS related activities. So feel free to add me to any lists if it makes sense

Thank you! I have been jumping between multiple platforms to try and get my iOS feed back. Hoping this will help me stay up to date without the musky smell
