#ThrowbackThursday to when I was single and navigating the worldwide web of dating. Not all apps are created equally. Not all dates are, either. Here are the 10 rules I picked up to save myself a whole lot of time. . #datingapps #tinder #bumble #rulesofthumb #millennialdating #dating #romance #innuendo #sorrybro #noselfies #tbthursday . tisbutamoment.com/dating-app-commandments (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5tA_ZXHQRP/?igshid=1p15n6bz4za0g

Learn from my mistakes! If you're #movingintogether for the right reasons, make sure you're not stuck staying for the wrong ones. #relationshipgoals #cohabitating #cohabitate #rulesofthumb . http://tisbutamoment.com/move-in-so/ (at Venice, California) https://www.instagram.com/tisbutamoment/p/Bw2KeGeDFI7/?igshid=b833k41y95bk

when in doubt it's always a calendar's fault

If you're seeing a stubborn error like this one:

*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '-[__NSCFType cancelButtonTapped:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x796eecc0'

...you might have some UI element in your xib (perhaps a UIButton) hooked up to a nonexistent method. Go to your xib. Delete the problematic outlet. Be at peace.

AVAudioPlayer

Thanks to the wonderful Octave project for introducing me to AVAudioPlayer. It's a great little way to add some sounds to your app. Here's an example for how to get started:

- (void) playSoundWithFilename:(NSString*)filename { NSString *file = [filename stringByDeletingPathExtension]; NSString *extension = [filename pathExtension]; NSURL *soundFileURL = [[NSBundle mainBundle] URLForResource:file withExtension:extension]; NSError* error = nil; self.audioPlayer = [[AVAudioPlayer alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:soundFileURL error:&error]; [self.audioPlayer play]; }

Not hearing anything?

Did you add your sound file as a member of your Target? It's a silly thing, but I've missed this more than once... not sure why the checkbox sometimes defaults to false while dragging sound files in.

Has your AVAudioPlayer instance been released before it can play your sound? Using something like a "self.audioPlayer" property (as above) might be what you're looking for, so your view can handle keeping it around for you.

If you're adding a bunch of subviews to another view, and any two or more of those views overlap, at all,

the order in which you add them matters.
