Greetings, NSHipsters!

As we prepare to increment our NSDateComponents -year by 1, it's time once again for NSHipster end-of-the-year Reader Submissions! Last year, we got some mind-blowing tips and tricks. With the release of iOS 7 & Mavericks, and a year's worth of new developments in the Objective-C ecosystem, there should be a ton of new stuff to write up for this year.

Submit your favorite piece of Objective-C trivia, framework arcana, hidden Xcode feature, or anything else you think is cool, and you could have it featured in the year-end blowout article. Just comment on this gist below!

Here are a few examples of the kind of things I'd like to see:

  • Using NSStringFromSelector(@selector()) as a safer way to do KVC / KVO / NSCoding.
  • Panic's [rather surprising discovery about the internals of the Lightning Digital AV Adapter](http://www.panic.com/blog/the-lightning-di

Works around the issue where UITextView doesn't scroll to the new line until there's a character in there. Super horrible workaround.
- (BOOL)textView:(UITextView *)textView shouldChangeTextInRange:(NSRange)range replacementText:(NSString *)text {
// Horrible HACK for bug in UITextView where it won't scroll to the new line after pressing enter in the text view.
// I feel dirty for having to write this. Buggy at least within iOS 7.0 - 7.1b1.
if (PSPDFIsUIKitFlatMode() && [text isEqualToString:@"\n"] && range.location == textView.text.length) {
dispatch_time_t popTime = dispatch_time(DISPATCH_TIME_NOW, (int64_t)(0.1 * NSEC_PER_SEC));
dispatch_after(popTime, dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
CGPoint contentOffset = textView.contentOffset;
CGFloat fontSize = textView.font.pointSize;
if (textView.contentSize.height - fontSize > textView.bounds.size.height) {
contentOffset.y += fontSize + 2.f; // add spacing
