Me, iOS Dev & My Motor

A provisioning profile walks into Xcode's bar and orders a drink! Xcode turns to a different profile at the end of the bar, hands him the drink, then tells him thats not his and he cant have it!

Yup, as rumoured, Apple has chucked out invites to their iPhone event to be held on the 9th of September. My credit card is getting armed. *Photo from Apple.*

Every time i'm in the office, I get the 'Next' app sitting in the bottom left of my lock screen. Pretty clever. On the topic of the Next app, hold tight on that one, i'm not an iOS developer at Next for no reason :) 

In Short, if its on and you travel around Europe, boom on comes Cellular Data. If its on, but Data Roaming is off and you head to China - No Cellular data. Thanks to RedmondPie for the image

But the iPhone 6 is allegedly coming to us for release on September the 19th. Furthermore it is rumoured to only be available 32gb and 64gb variants. Who knows, but the rumour as a iPhone 6 counterpart with a hefty 5.5inch display sounds pretty good!

This is how wednesday goes!

Easy Wednesdays

Today sees #iOS8 revealed to us at Apple's #WWDC - there is also said to be hidden banners up at the Moscone centre, Who knows? I'm not ruling out Smart Wear like others! I'll have iOS 8 running on my iPhone as soon as the beta comes out tonight! 👍 Images from The Verge and jyarow on Twitter!

Coding to this, productivity through the roof! Have me some of that!!!!

This is now the 2nd job I've got by engaging in a company that doesn't have a job advertised for what I can do. I do get a lot of comments about my skill set, apparently finding someone with native iOS, Web API/ ASP MVC && SQL skills is rare. Who Knew but if you've ever sat there and thought 'id love to work at XXXX but they are not advertising' who cares? get off your backside and get your CV in there, even just for consideration. Your welcome.

Apple are rumoured to be showcasing a new ‘Smart Home’ platform at next weeks WWDC! Interesting, but not as much as the rumoured flat iOS7 esque OSX 10.10. My opinion anyway! http://appleinsider.com/articles/14/05/26/apple-expected-to-unveil-new-smart-home-platform-at-wwdc—-report

Whilst I’m getting to grips with Tumblr and somewhat taking to the idea of blogging I’ll follow up on the Yellow Stuff pads and uprated discs I put in at the weekend! So i'm 100 miles in and definitely feeling the bite, however, only when the pads are warmed up! In fact when the brakes are cold they are quite ‘meh’ and only this morning when braking for this first time at a junction I had my bird seeking hood scoop halfway in the middle of the road! Not cool! I later hit the bypass and under heavy braking it was clear that the disks where slightly noisier than OEM but someone has told me this is normal for grooved discs and therefore I chose not to moan. That’s about as far as me and noises go though, I hate anything that makes noises usually to a point where if a car starts making noises it’s often on Auto Trader by tea time. I’m now at the position where the rear discs and pads are to follow in the same combination and potentially new braided hoses. One day, like many others, I intend to win the lottery and when this happens I’ll go with bigger Callipers from CorkSport and go 'Fully Bolted' but until then I concur that these pads/discs sort out the problem of ‘all go and no slow’ and now the problem is more ‘shit, my splitter is scraping from the nose dive’ - ok not quite.
