Sounds like an excuse to me. But, 'ready for production' is a relative term that must be considered in context. Apple is encouraging developers to submit apps with Swift, so clearly they think it's 'ready for production&

I love CyanogenMod (or at least the concept...I'm over dealing with the headache in practice), but the reason I used it was certainly not for improved stability and security. Not that I particularly trust OEMs/carriers, but the on

Doesn't the Gmail app on iOS use a push-system for delivery? Why would you want to use EAS for Gmail? Seems reasonably (and positively Apple-like) for Google to push people into the Gmail app where they control the experience and can

Sure, testflight makes it easier (it's been around for years...). But you still have to invite people to testflight, after theyve signed up and added their device, you can provision the app for each device, after adding it to your de

Full disclosure: I'm biased as I'm primarily an Android engineer. But, I've led teams and developed extensively for both platforms, so I'll tell you a couple things I've observed. 1. If you already own an iOS or And

This is important news for iOS developers as it means they must build and test their app on iOS 8, including any libraries that they use. There are many ways and reasons why changing your build target may affect your app, so much so that&#x

No - it just means new iOS apps must support 64-bit and be built with Xcode 6. Those same binaries/archives can also support 32-bit and older OS versions. Similarly, today, you must build your app using at least the iOS 7 SDK and xcode

Actually it seems it's a different camera than the 2014 Moto X, my evidence being primarily the larger aperture size, also OIS.

Ah, interesting way to qualitatively determine diversity. Taking the quoted example, from my perspective a city with 100 ethnic groups, each with 1%, is much more diverse than the example with 4, each with 25% - but they share the same entr

I'm curious as to your source or why you say, in no uncertain terms, that Houston is "the most diverse in the country" . If such a thing could be accurately quantified, I would bet my life savings on NYC.

I once worked for Pyxis Mobile (now Verivo Inc.) which touted a platform which would provide you with native iOS, Android, and BlackBerry (years ago..) apps, which would build themselves at run time based on a database/app meta data.

It should be noted that the Samsung Gear Live (one of the first two Android Wear devices from last June), as well as the Moto 360 both have a heart sensor, powered by an LED on the back of the device, just as Apple's will.

I could be mistaken here but it seems BLE is not only "supported" but may indeed be a requirement of all Android Wear (aka Android API level 20) devices. AFAIK every Android Wear watch has noted an Android 4.3 requirement for th

Correct. Chrome is a separate project from the AOSP. That said, Android 4.4 and later use Chromium for their WebViews, the source for which is developed along with Chrome as a part of the Chromium project - it does not live in AOSP. Presuma

How does this compare to loading up a String of json in an org.json.JSONObject and parsing it manually? For some further abstraction/encapsulation, you can extend the JSONObject class and provide getters/settings for particular ke

Agreed it's a shame this is read only - I'd like to build this for Android Wear, among other things. You could build a companion app, send the HTTP request you mention, which would trigger a push notification to that user's
