@iOhYesPodcast One thing I forgot to mention: taxes. Self-employment tax is shocker. As I rule I just stash 50% of every check for the gov't— Sommer Panage (@Sommer) October 7, 2015

Breakpoints
Beyond line-based breakpoints: categorical breakpoints
Types of Breakpoints
All Exception breakpoint
Stop on any and all Exceptions.
Objective-C Exception breakpoint
Stop on Objective-C Exceptions, eg: NSException.
Swift Error breakpoint
Stop on Swift Errors, e.g.: types conforming to ErrorType.
New in Xcode 7.1 beta 3.
Test Failure breakpoint
Stop when a Test fails. XCTest and compatible frameworks only.
Symbolic Breakpoints
Stop on a Symbol. A symbol is a selector or method name, or a function name.
Methods can be scoped to a class.
eg: pathsMatchingExtensions:
eg: [SKTLine drawHandlesInView]
eg: people::Person::name()
eg: _objc_msgForward
OpenGL/ES error breakpoints
Symbolic breakpoints
Particularly useful for breaking in private API
Also handy for performing debugger setup in UIApplicationMain
import UIKit
Load/init Reveal library (or chisel, or whatever)
Breakpoint actions
Play sound
Execute LLDB command
AppleScript or Shell Script
Log Message - %B %H @expr@
Conditions
Options: Continue
User breakpoints

Picks
Darryl
Automated Xcode version and build numbering via Git - Another pick from our friend @mokagio. Since we’re talking about Xcode productivity, I figured this one fit in well.
John

GammaThingy - iOS app you have to build yourself - uses private APIs to implement changing display color temperature. no jailbreak required.
