I'd liken this to the "washing machine effect" that Hans Rosling explaned in his TED talk [1]. He essentially made the case that the washing machine made a huge difference in the history of the world so parents could spend mo

This could be huge. Even if they just take the route of updating the most popular phones to the latest versions of Android, bypassing the slow manufacturer+carrier update cycle, they could easily have a platform if they can get the adoption

One thing Google will never do is firmware/bootloader level programming to specific devices, and actually writing the code that lets you update your carrier/manufacturer controlled device to the latest version of Android. Cyanogen

Correction: "lacking in any realtime capabilities" should read " offline capabilities". And by that I mean offline without manually managing cache. Also by 2-way sync I mean 2-way cache sync. Firebase is actually really

As someone who has been playing around with Parse and Firebase SDKs (on Android), this seems to be the first one that offers full 2-way sync. I haven't actually used it yet but it seems that way due to the presence of conflict resolut

Having a bitbucket mirror isn't a bad idea. They have free private repos for up to 5 users, so if you just have an admin and the deploy user on there you can get redundancy for "free". Just have to keep it in sync, but that shouldn't be too
