Highlight of my last week: Yesterday night @Monal was so kind to explain the inner workings of #Monal and his development setup to me. That was delight- and insightful! Thanks for that nice talk!

@ctietze They made a scripting language out of #ObjC and you can inject methods using that password field.

Revisited the first iOS game I built (~15 years ago), back when I was learning Objective-C. Non-ARC, old cocos2d, iPhone4 layouts.

Spent a few hours doing manual cleanup, removing things like Flurry + old Game Center code, and fixing enough to make it compile.

It builds. It runs — including proper aspect-fit scaling on modern devices.

Apparently I had even built an After Effects to XML level design system pipeline. Not entirely sure how. 😅

If you’re a developer, this thread is absolutely mind-blowing. #objc #swift #android

The old dude was famously verbose, but this is getting a bit much:

It's interesting just how close Objective-C 1.0/1.1 was to JavaScript. A lot of the gritty code just copy-paste and works, as long as you remember to turn [foo message:bar] into foo.message(bar) and change ls.count to ls.length (which tripped me a few times). The object model's different, but you'll never notice in normal work.

Once the whip-me-beat-me C++ freaks started littering Obj-C with a bunch of type-shit, it got harder.
