I'm a mobile software engineer with 10 years of experience, working for startups like Soundcloud and established companies like Facebook. I've spent a significant part of my career working for consultancies (even co-founded one) and am looking to get back into the product space.

At my current role I got the chance gaining some people management experience, but I'm not ready to take an EM position just yet. I'm looking for a lead mobile role where I can contribute my experience in the mobile sector, but also my experience working with backend and product teams.

Thanks for checking me out.

You lost me at

  yarn add native-base --save
  
  npm install @expo/vector-icons --save

When I read `native-base` I was all: ewww. Everybody I talk to who used it in previous project regretted it and build back.

Second, the mixture of yarn and npm in the code snippet shows that the author either didn't understand what they are doing, or does not care to lead with a clean example. It's okay to stick with only npm in a beginners tutorial.

Update: Also, why the Python prerequisite?

Facebook did offer @facebook.com email addresses starting end of 2010 and had them available until I believe 2014.

It's interesting to see no iOS example code in Swift.

I know that the Swift adoption rate at Facebook is low for certain reasons, but I was hoping it would go up, or at least be of concern for open sourced projects.

Isn‘t the summit of Chimborazo the farthest point from earths center?

Besides what other people have mentioned FB is also one of the biggest Mercurial (which is build in Python) users out there and has a few developers working on it exclusively.

Honest question: Why does a soldering iron need a firmware? Isn't it just enough to set a temperature? What other features are there?

I had the chance to visit Shibam in 2005. AMA

I love how the name resembles the classic http://csszengarden.com

Al Gore 2020?

This game's fun but I have to go cold turkey now

tiny lol at "Tesla plans to launch the satellites..." Guess I'm not the only one who makes this mistake from time to time :)

If you want to learn ES6 I highly recommend the Tower of Babel interactive tutorial: https://github.com/yosuke-furukawa/tower-of-babel

Also very good on that topic by the always glorious Stuff You Should Know: http://www.stuffyoushouldknow.com/podcasts/operation-minceme...

In case this is the first time you hear of Rails 5 and wonder what's new, this post sums it up: http://weblog.rubyonrails.org/2015/12/18/Rails-5-0-beta1/

Modern pop music follows strict patterns. I have little doubt that much of what's playing in the top 40 can be synthesized or already is :P

All that you need then is a human avatar that the kids can connect to and take as their role model.

I wonder what happened to the canon rounds that missed their target (that must have been most of them). There must be an entire region that must have gotten used to raining 128-millimeter bullets.

Sorry to be the one... but it's "Xcode" with a lowercase "c".

Apparently launch images in different sizes will go away and will be replaced by storyboards with auto layout

I wonder how such things become possible. As co-founders shouldn't you have a written (and lawyer checked) agreement on how the company is shared amongst you?

How can one betray the other besides of letting him/her unknowingly sign an unfortunate contract?

I was expecting a good argument on why it's launched in JA prior to US, UK or EU. Just the fact that Japan is a big adaptor for robotics doesn't make it. Roomba and others have established solid markets for that kind of product outside of Japan already. I hope Dyson can match the demand and will start selling the 360 eye globally soon.

Also get a cinnamon toast at Trouble on Judah St and take a walk on ocean beach.

We've been using Highrise a while ago, but moved away from it quickly.

These days we use Trello with a card for each lead, where we keep track of the current status. The card moves between different states as we engage with the client (kanban style).

If you keep your mails in Gmail you already have a powerful tool to handle them and don't need CRM support for that.

Not much a problem of `goto` per se. Rather a problem with if conditions used without code blocks.

Others might say it's a problem of whitespace insensitive languages ;)

My points on Modern Objective-C:

  - Use MVVM and some method of bindings (e.g. ReactiveCocoa) [0]  
  - Split up ViewControllers and DataSources [1]  
  - Split up classes using Categories (I've seen so many blown up AppDelegates)
  - Use CocoaPods (this should be a given by now)
  - probably much more I forgot about...

oh, and btw: those `@directives` go by the name of `literals`
