But Apple entered the smart watch market by making an iPhone accessory. Whereas when they entered the smart phone market they made a phone for everyone, not just Mac users. On the other hand IIRC the original iPod…
Nor does soy
Just Mayo does not include palm oil While it might be a fun thought experiment to find situations where a non-vegan dish includes less animal cruelty than a technically vegan dish, for 99.99% the people reading this and…
I had an unusual timezone related bug. I was adding "Night mode" to Nova Launcher, allowing a dark theme to be applied after sunset. To accurately calculate sunrise/sunset the location permission is required, but that's…
It narrows the market, it requires explaining and justification, and it's unappetizing. It sounds like they've figured out a good approach to heme, why bother using actual blood? I was thinking a similar thing about…
Sometimes plant-based is used as a more socially acceptable word for "vegan". I think there's also a difference between titling a product "vegan" and specifying that it is vegan. "Vegan donuts" isn't as appealing to…
She mentions that we should think of the android apis as a "system framework", and I remember a different Google Android engineer saying something similar about the RecyclerView, that right now the focus is on making…
There are also non-vegan vegetarians who eat a lot of vegan food, or are health or environmental conscious so they minimize egg/dairy while not cutting it out completely.
I wonder if it was something like .adobe-A3DF0910 that they were targeting, so they couldn't completely hard code the path and neglected to hardcode the prefix. Or maybe it was a purely randomly named directory without…
It's actually just a setting in the Amazon Underground app to disable tracking of apps. The "actually free" apps require the setting enabled. He disabled it and it's telling him that. The CyanogenMod/Privacy…
The "60% of all names" is wrong. Let's imagine there are 3 total names, Alice, Bob and Casey. Alice is > 80% female, Bob is < 20% female and Casey is 50% female. Even though we're using the 80/20 cutoff, only 33% of the…
I really like the science in his write ups, there's obviously a lot of science in baking but so many write ups focus on story building and act as if there is some magic behind the steps or ingredients that obfuscates…
App updates also throw off reviews quite a bit, an update that changes a behavior (or color like you said) is likely to receive a large amount of negative reviews, just because users were used to the old way. These…
It's a version string, which as far as I know, has been acceptable since the beginning of open source. They just let us know that Google Play scans APKs for that string. I imagine Google Play also scans for other…
1 star (and 5 star) are always going to be the biggest buckets. Even if you try to be very fair and strict, what does a driver that doesn't show up get? 1 star. What about a driver that stabs you? 1 star. Crashes? 1…
The limit is being addressed, though not fully in L. It's discussed in the podcast at http://androidbackstage.blogspot.com/2014/08/android-develop... Basically they're aware it's an issue and they're working on it both…
This hack can't screw up another application, the author is wrong about that. It's changing the local process only and has no influence on any other apps (which are not just sandboxed into their own processes but also…
Harmless Harvest explains it on the bottle and their website. They suggest that it shouldn't be pink when harvested, but if it turns pink later that's natural and okay.…
They actually are doing the knock to wake. BLE works and is an instant lock/unlock. Sending a command via wifi will let you know (on the phone) that the lockitron is in a power save mode and the command will be executed…
Perhaps something that groups (or even just a weighted score) people and comments by voting habits. If I consistently vote up memes and receive votes from other meme voters, then show me more of that kind of content and…
I've done this. Not for sneaky/malicious purposes but just to provide a better experience. Also batching features around adding permissions, I'd rather release one update with two new permissions than two different…
It took me a few tries to quit Kid Pix because of this. But now that I think about it when the change was introduced to not require click and hold (7.6? 8.0?) I hated it.
> There's a persistent notification that never goes away, even after you tell Android not to allow notifications from the app (no idea how they did that, never seen another app do that) This is actually a bug in Android…
App stores are great for commercial developers but culturally clash with open source apps. If someone were to take grep and commercialize it, no one would use it. (Though I have seen stories about it happening with…
