At first glance it seems like you will be able to use go on Android the same way you can use C and C++ through a jni bridge between the java and go code: https://github.com/golang/mobile/blob/master/examp

If you read any of the technical analysis, those claims are clearly unfounded and the hacker doesn't even understand how REST works: http://thenextweb.com/apps/2014/11/27/ubers-app-malware-desp... A

Checking for root access is actually really useful from a developer standpoint. I've seen countless bugs on Crashlytics that are 100% on rooted devices which often is because the user has xposed or some other system level hacks that br

Yeah I'm confused here too, I understand there might be a need for some of these, but you should be able to just rely on autoboxing of primitives to Objects like what RxJava does: https://github.com/ReactiveX/RxJav

Yeah but it's already namespaced differently so package name shouldn't conflict. But now that I think about it more, consistent versioning for the 3rd party dev across multiple OS versions is pretty important.

That's true, I totally agree with you at its irony in hindsight. I guess I'm a bit blinded at having worked on Android apps for a while and using this lib way too often.

Not entirely sure how this made front page, but it is a super handy lib. I don't understand why Android includes this lib in their source but makes it internal so you have to provide your own copy if you want to use it in your app: ht

This is the first time they're offering a peek into a pre-release of their OS, ever. Apple has done multiple times with a track record of auto-updates, so yes, that can be expected of Apple, and Apple only. Google never promised update

And C# can't (directly) run on anything not built by Microsoft. For those of us focused on shipping products to cross platform users, there are handfuls of languages better than C# in that regard. There are things every language does p

I use Parceler ( https://github.com/johncarl81/parceler ) with gson. So gson for network data, then parceler for passing parcels around between activities/fragments.

From my conversations with iOS developers, those libraries don't come close to the robustness and simplicity of equivalent java/android libraries like retrofit, gson/jackson, coupled with RxJava... Etc. I do think a large par

FWIW, Clinkle was housed in Mountain View for quite a while. While I generally agree with you on the distinction between established players vs startups, I don't think the geographic classification is clear cut as you make it.

Just because the founders put effort into something doesn't make it ethically good. The advertised use is still messaging and communication, and I'm sure if they open it up to developers there will only be more distractions like f

I think they're trying to copy Google+'s "Photos" app which takes over the gallery while offering background upload in the same app. Although on Android with Google+ it's bundled in the same apk, just 2 separate Lau
