Re: MDMCoreData - NSScreencast

Matthew Morey — Thu, 27 Feb 2014 19:56:43 -0000

Really cool seeing MDMCoreData on NSScreencast!

You could have shorten the saveWeight method like so:

- (void)saveWeight:(CGFloat)weight {
WTWeightLog *log = [WTWeightLog MDMCoreDataAdditionsInsertNewObjectIntoContext:self.persistenceController.managedObjectContext];
log.dateTaken = [NSDate date];
log.units = @"lbs";
log.weight = @(weight);

[self updateForWeight:log];
[self.persistenceController saveContextAndWait:NO completion:^(NSError *error) {
if (error) {
NSLog(@"ERROR:%@", [error localizedDescription]);
}
}];
}

Notice the use of the NSManagedObject category. Also, saveContextAndWait saves both the main context and the private writer context.

Instead of strings:
NSFetchRequest *fetchRequest = [NSFetchRequest fetchRequestWithEntityName:@"WeightLog"];

You could have done this:
NSFetchRequest *fetchRequest = [NSFetchRequest fetchRequestWithEntityName:[WTWeightLog MDMCoreDataAdditionsEntityName]];

Re: Update: Ink Plus & Ink Bold Cards.

Just tried applying for the Ink Bold, once via the link above and another attempt by going to chase.com directly. Both times I got a message of “Offer Unavailable” after filling out the form.

Has anyone successfully submitted an application this weekend? Maybe they are getting hammered because everyone wants in on the Bluebird madness.

I'm heading to Chicago with the wife for a quick weekend trip in mid November. This app would be perfect for looking up various facts about the city as we walk around.

Re: Why You Shouldn’t Use a Southwest Airlines Credit Card

The Southwest Plus card has an annual bonus of 3,000 points (~$50) and the Southwest Premier card has a bonus of 6,000 points (~$100). Does the Sapphire have any annual bonuses?

How do you get the seats in the front right up against the window? Are seats assigned or is it first come first serve?

Looks like I should have read your whole article as you also included the rates. Nice write up.

Nice hotel, I asked for their rates as it is not available on their website. The cheapest room for 2 people would be $548 a night. Rate is valid until the end of 2012.

Re: Ron's Evernote Tips - Copy and Paste from your iPhone into Evernote. If...

Matthew Morey — Mon, 13 Jul 2009 13:46:08 -0000

How about a bookmarklet for the iPhone? A quick solution would be to adjust the width parameter in the current /public/bookmarkClipper.js file to fit the iPhone screen. A better solution would be to detect portrait or landscape mode and adjust the size of the pop up accordingly.

The best solution would be to create a bookmarklet that opens up the Evernote app with the URL and selected content. TwitterFon achieves this by doing something like this:

javascript:window.location='twitterfon:///post?'+window.location

Thanks for the good tips! Keep them coming!
