Aw man, is there any way to still apply? I had the form filled out in my browser, and I was waiting for a friend to fill out his application, but I ended up forgetting to submit the form before 12:00am PST.

The funny thing is that I know a few people who do this. (Holding Caps Lock = CTRL, tapping Caps Lock = ESC)

A strategy that I found works really well to quickly style everything is to create a category on UIView that defines a block property decorated with UI_APPEARANCE_SELECTOR, then on the setter, invoke the block. Then set the appearance proxy on app startup:

  [[UILabel appearance] setStyleBlock:^(id view) {
    UILabel *label = view;
    label.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
  }];

The advantage is that you can style properties that aren't supported by UIAppearance natively, since a block just gets run when the view is ready to be styled. You also can style subviews from the same block (ie. title label inside of a warning view should be red and bold).

I worked at a start-up whose engineering lead brought familiar coding style to a project that was inherited. We were imposed a combination of C89-esque and Microsoft kernel coding style on an Objective-C source code. Things like defining all variables at the beginning of the function definition in alphabetical order in CamelCase, having instance variables prefixed with the class abbreviation, and other inane rules. It went something like this:

  - (void)
  doSomethingOnObjectAndNumber:
    (NSObject *) MyObject :
    (NSInteger) MyNumber
  
  /*++
  Some unstandard doc format.
  --*/

  {
    
    ...
    return;
  }

Before I started, I was told that the project migrated from git to svn to "make branching easier". I do not work there any more.
