Comments on: C4[2] and Iron Coder http://greenmango.org/2008/09/08/c42-and-iron-coder/ I wanna be ripe and sweet, but at least I go well with salt and vinegar.

I was thinking – wow Jose has been keeping his comedic self hidden! Yea blessings are good! Kind of amazing what happens when you get all these Mac and iPhone devs together in one place, huh? It brings new meaning to the phrase “the whole is greater than the parts.”

It was fun figuring out how to do the tip calculator “displays” back up in our hotel room with you and also optimizing the t-shirt. I still have some of the git explanations on napkins.

BTW, thanks also for being the hand model for the limited edition “How to do the Wolf-Rentzsch” t-shirt. :)

See you soon.

But I think that would have been a little TOO geeky, even for this conference.

The shirts are great tho! It’s been fun trying to figure out what mean.

Oh, want to officially thank you for critiquing the circuit diagram – if interpreted strictly as a computer circuit you are right. I was twisting the language of it a bit, but I guess that’s not a good move for such a geeky conference ^___^

I just expected to forget everything in the moment on account of my nerves. I don’t know what made me put the notes under the camera but was surprised by the reaction!
Something similar happened with the “tap 99″ bit. I just hacked something easy to parse to go into the secret mode, and I just did 0.99 as common price point that would not raise suspision. It was not until later that I realized that I could fit that in as a joke and when actually saw the initial reaction, I just ran with it.

It’s a shame a few people had to catch flights and leave early, because they missed a great show. Maybe I’ll try an entry next year, just for the fun of it.

Personally, my favorite part was when you flashed your “secret decoder notes” on the screen. Hilarious.

The “I’m actually a secret agent” bit was hilarious.
