You don't need a grid framework on top of the CSS grid layout

Also other caveat: NSBitmapImageRep can't seem to deal with the ARGB format either, so if you use that you need to…

The China ICO Ban
Regulators in China imposed a blanket ban on ICOs over the long weekend. A number of people have reached out to me via email and Twitter asking me what I think about this. I think regulation of ICOs is inevitable and a good thing if done right (ie lightly). The SEC’s comments on ICOs back […]

How to Achieve Polished UI
Ever since the original iPhone came out, I’ve had several ideas about how they managed to achieve such fluidity with relatively mediocre hardware. I mean, it was good at the time, but Android still struggles on hardware that makes that look like a 486… It’s absolutely my fault that none of these have been implemented…
