For anyone not that familiar with Android, "must use okhttp" refers to the fact that it is the best solution, not that it's the only solution.

This is only for Amazon Drive. As others have said, 3rd party apps won't be able to make use of the data, but there's probably another reason. I'm assuming Amazon uses fingerprinting to store only one copy of a file across th

They must have an exploit, and they're pivoting to ransomware. Dang.

There was a talk at DroidCon given by Jesse Wilson that discusses this more in depth (and with a little more clarity). https://youtu.be/T_p22jMZSrk

I wonder how often a Chrome extension had to led to a feature implementation or bug fix?

I feel like 200 years from now, our times will be viewed as something akin to the industrial revolution. Recency bias makes us feel as if we're more important in history, but 200 years is a long time. I'm sure there'll be ano

As an American I have no barometer for this. Anyone here from the UK, will the public at large really be as affected as the article claims?

True. I was mostly stating that in regards to the viewpoint of orthodox Jews as espoused in the GP. My main point was that it is not an idea that came about in the 20th century.

All orthodox Jews ascribe to this. I'm not sure how you can claim this is a 20th-century interpretation as I'm currently looking at writings from ~2000 years ago (the Mishnah and Talmud) that discuss it.

I have no idea why G-d put dinosaur bones on Earth. It has no effect on my belief that G-d created the world, and on how old it is. If you feel very strongly about it, then when you create a world, make it's physical age and time age m

It's related to the 3rd commandment to not make an image of G-d. I don't believe the permission to illustrate the megillah has anything to do with G-d's name not being mentioned, as there are accepted illustrations of Tanach

It wouldn't feature in the "literature" before then because the oral Torah was not allowed to be written down. The compilation and writing of the Mishnah was in response to the inevitable upcoming exile.

I'm not sure how "tongue in cheek" this article was supposed to be, but most of his issues with the problem can be solved by buying into the language. For: Not sure what he's upset about, but there are many options in th

I use it a lot in Android, where certain objects are created by the framework, and I don't want a nullable reference for one of its properties.

I've moved on to Kotlin. Much more enjoyable for Android development IMO.

Well that was unexpected. I'm assuming they'll translate bytecode for older API versions? Or will Java 8 only be available for newer API versions?

I don't think this is language specific as much as it is about keeping up to date in your field of employment.

I walk about 25 steps to get from my bed to my office. I used to take the train into NYC from SE Brooklyn which took anywhere from 35 minutes to 2 hours.

Is the author saying that Trump should be impeached, or that he actually could be impeached? Sounds like the former to me.

I don't understand the problem with this. In Ben Gurion airport in Israel, if you look like a religious Jew you'll most likely get asked questions regarding the Torah portion of that week.

Wow, your anti American bias is showing. So you maintain that because a percentage of Americans live their lives a certain way, there's no need to defend the border?

They're treated like a criminal, because the criminals sued, saying "why are we the only ones treated like this". They'll also do it because something tripped their alarm, and they have to do due diligence (see my update

So why do they pull in elderly women in wheelchairs? Because someone sued, saying that the agents were profiling.

Yes, they do want to distress people, but they don't have anything against them personally. They weren't looking for Fox to self-accuse; she was only in there to fill their quota of older white women who they needed to pull in. If

They are expertly trained. They did exactly what was needed, and it seems like they did an excellent job. Unfortunately the subject didn't need to be subjected to that for any reason other than random selection. Edit: They were trained

I don't think they have anything against her personally. These tactics are used to fluster and confuse, and hopefully cause the subject to make a mistake. Clearly it's effective. In a perfect world, this would only be applied to c
