In this installment of Programming By Stealth, Bart teaches us how to use Promises, with a capital P to get promises when we already know the value we want to supply.

Dumb Question Corner – How to Copy/Paste Plain Text on iOS?
Steve Davidson sent in a great dumb question. I define great as “Clearly explained without an obvious answer, and yet I eventually figure it out.” Here’s Steve’s question: Hi, Allison.
