    kylefuller dantoml maybe? It started when I was trying to make it safe by using CGFloat everywhere. But actual problem is...

    kylefuller dantoml mocks saying a method was invoked that wasn't expected (when it was).
  899. …in reply to @kylefuller
    kylefuller dantoml hmmm interesting although I'm not sure why that problem would manifest in the mocks? And only 2 calls out of 100s?
  900. …in reply to @catehstn
    kylefuller dantoml there is now no use of float or double in the app. CGFloat is used /everywhere/.

  1561. RT KathleenLD: You think there have been no incidents at an annual conf that has a massive (and well-avoided) beer event, no CoC, and ~5% …
  1562. Speakers just a reminder: you can ask for a CoC when you are accepted/invited to speak. It's an effective way to get one put in place.
  1563. …in reply to @catehstn
    100% agree that CoC is insufficient, but it's a start. And the best way to get one is for people with more power to start demanding it.
  1564. …in reply to @a_meba
    a_meba KathleenLD yeah I saw that - horrifying. I hope you are okay! Stay safe <3
  1565. …in reply to @catehstn
    My tactic: reply to invitations saying "please confirm you have a CoC" if I can't find one, to emphasize how NORMAL and REASONABLE this is.
