I wanted to rant about adding how adding third-party frameworks to our code has become the default and how bad that is and how we’re all going to have to deal with broken code…but I found a more productive way to communicate the same thing.

I’ve been feeling this same way for a while now. While CocoaPods and Carthage certainly aim to make our lives easier, I’m finding myself trying to integrate third-party code into my projects as little as possible.

Meanwhile, I’ll continue enjoying my trip through Singapore as I’ve been doing for the past 2 weeks — that’s until tomorrow, when I’ll fly to Tokyo for a brief stay before returning back home.

P.S.: I fucking love this country! Someday I’d like to move here.

P.P.S.: here are some pictures from my trip (all of them, of course, #ShotOniPhone6).
