If you're implementing child view controllers and want automaticallyAdjustsScrollViewInsets to work...
// This ensures that the automaticallyAdjustsScrollViewInsets magic works
// On our newly added view controller as well.
// This triggers _layoutViewController which then triggers
// _computeAndApplyScrollContentInsetDeltaForViewController:
// which finally updates our content inset of the scroll view (if any)

LCKIndexedFetchedResultsController is a NSFetchedResultsController subclass that attempts to solve the problem of sorting a fetched collection into correctly alphabetized sections for every locale. It does things like making sure that the `#` character shows up at the bottom instead of the top of the section index titles.

Scenarios to consider for FRP APIs
  Hot Cold Notes
Behaviors Always Property values over time
Events Maybe Maybe This is a design decision, but picking “hot” requires introducing some concept of buffering
Promises Sorta Sorta Promises don't do work until started, but only do it once, and share/buffer their result

Writing Objective-C framework code that works on multiple OS versions AND can be compiled using multiple SDK versions without warnings can be a PITA. Here's my approach:

Suppose we want to add support for a new iOS 8 API in our framework that replaces an older iOS 7 API. There are a few problems we might face:

  1. The new API will crash if we call it on iOS 7
  2. The new API won't compile if we build it using the iOS 7 SDK
  3. The old API will raise a deprecation warning if built with a deployment target of iOS 8 and up

These three problems require three different technical solutions:

  1. We can avoid calling the new API on an old OS version by using runtime detection (e.g. respondsToSelector:)
  2. We can avoid compiling new APIs on old SDKs using the __IPHONE_OS_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED macro
