How is that useful? To glance at that information you have to: 1. Unlock your phone 2. Press home to go to the homescreen 3. Swipe to the screen that contains the widget 4. Possibly scroll the widget itself Android itself has several better

Of course it's better than @Nullable. @Nullable-annotated code still compiles your NullPointerException-throwing code, using Optional won't.

Both Haskell and Scala are more popular than Rust right now. Scala is actually on its way to become a mainstream language ( http://sogrady-media.redmonk.com/sogrady/files/2014/01/lang-... ), followed quite

I would say Scala is convenient, popular, supported and with good performance. It also has the static safety and memory safety you desire. All the while with an excellent library collection which is a superset of Java's library collect

That should only go as far as the app store and the settings app. The rest of the applications on the system have no reason to be special for they don't need special system administration tasks to function. Android even functions where

Well well, Pikkety's book has been published internationally in April 2014 (French is not mastered well enough by most people, including European politicians, to take in). It takes a little while longer for something to affect public o

Clojure has beautiful Java interopability for a Lisp, and Java really does break down idiomatic Scala a lot. But that last sentence is way too hyperbolic.

It's maybe even wrong of me to lump Ceylon and Kotlin together. Kotlin definitely is richer (and closer to Scala in features) and can also compile to JavaScript, which puts it in a different boat. As a straight and immediate Java repla

I don't get the equation of Scala and Kotlin and Ceylon. Ceylon and Kotlin grab the low-hanging fruit. They are better Javas. These languages bring nothing new to the table at all. They will actually suffer from Java 8, because Java 8

I doubt Android is counted in here at all. It's really a different beast compared to regular Java. This 'mobile' figure could be explained by Java Mobile Edition developers alone.

In what way would Adobe profit from creating such a Linux distribution of their own? They probably can't even rationalize porting creative suite to the Linux desktop, let alone develop a partial OS around it. They're making a crap

The screenshot they posted on top of the blog site is very illustrative. Although I may be used to the "Google Maps look", the OSM map displayed there is much harder to understand. I can't put my finger on it exactly, but the

None of the terminology or mathematics used seems to be specific to integer groups to my limited understanding. Could you explain why this has nothing to do with elliptic curve groups?

It's great to see how Java web development has progressed. I tried to make a Spring MVC web app work like a decent, modern, readable and productive web application two years ago and it just wasn't possible. Anyone interested in mo

To be honest, it will probably be made very easy to you to not use the DRM components (remember that this will be a small plugin that you have to expressly install) or download a patched version that does not support EME at all. If, as a us

Could you imagine Apple would have gone for BeOS or a custom developed kernel with no significant terminal-based userland when making OS X? It would probably still be used by many casual users or those doing graphical work, but I doubt it w

Did not work for University of Twente emails (utwente.nl). Please know that all Dutch public universities are firmly within the top 500 of universities worldwide (whichever ranking you pick) but don't have .edu email addresses! It&#x27

The website having an .edu is one thing, but that doesn't give you a usable .edu email address.

Garbage collection is not acceptable in some scenarios, because garbage collection implies unpredictable performance, slower performance, and comparatively heavy runtime dependencies. This is all fine for many applications, but not for stuf

I don't get it. In my opinion LaTeX is very good to use iff: - your document is large (paper sized) or - your document requires the use of LaTeX's math typesetting Why else would you go through the pain of using LaTeX when: - with

There is contradictory evidence whether the Cell's PPE was 'PowerPC' or just a 'Power' core. In any case, it could run PowerPC software. Incidentally, three of those exact same cores are used as the CPU of the Xbox

The description of this card's features are a little too basic to my taste. Based on the "anonymous credentials" they mention it seems to imply that they're using attribute-based cryptography* to preserve privacy, which

Windows is just a little too different for them to make a proper purge of the project right now. Having Windows support is just a much larger cross-cutting concern than a Unix-like OS, which appears to be the only category of operating syst

It's different. With computers, you pick your own motherboard, CPU, GPU, memory config and so on. These things look funny and technical and most people don't even touch them. But even casual users regularly replace/expand the

I've been using ART as my daily driver since it was released. It took Whatsapp two weeks to issue an update that made it work with ART. Nothing else and nothing since has posed any problem. In fact, I forgot I was using it until I saw

We use Bootstrap UI as well. We found out that one thing AngularStrap does is allow for (inline) templating in tooltip content, and Bootstrap UI doesn't.

Is it? When Apple introduced other screen sizes in the form of tablets, they required completely new layouts. Will they do that again for larger phones? The 3.5/4 inch size is very much ingrained in the design of iPhone apps. For examp
