I want to learn C and I have two projects on my mind that I will use for experimenting with the language: 1. a cli spotify controller (control spotify through mpris and consuming the REST api for search/playlist related commands) 2. a

Working offline is cool but the app feels noticably slower than the plain html version for navigating between comments and main pages. Tested on Firefox and Chrome (Android)

Agreed that there is lots of magic going on in the DI container but as it resolves everything on startup most issues there are still caught during the development process. Catching errors at compile time is mostly about avoiding subtle bugs

Spring with Spring Boot in Java. Batteries included and easy to setup and get going. A statically typed language to catch errors at compile time. Easy to deploy by building an uberjar. Great dependency management and builds with Gradle&#x2F

I wonder how you can avoid users from tampering with the licence check in dynamic languages like javascript and ruby where anyone has access to the node_modules or rubygems directories. I know this is not the focus of this particular produc

I would love a service similar to this one but with a match making algorithm based on interests and/or self selected topics. This way I could make a lonely commute a lot more interesting by calling a random person also interested in fo

Nice list. If I need to generate names for sample data I usually just use the Faker library. When I'm writing database fixtures for use in tests, I like to manually choose names from movies/tv-shows for related entities. For examp

You can do that through the regular AWS cli tools with "aws s3 cp..." or with external tools like s3cmd which is a third party s3 cli client.

There's something wrong with the routing on that page. Whenever I open a link in a new tab it redirects to the home page. The same behavior when I type http://elemental-ui.com/css in my address bar and hit enter, it op

Your app is too niche for a freemium model. You Said yourself that the app solves a very specific problem and it's the only app in the store that solves that problem. I would suggest you switch back to up front payment but jack up the

I would like to know which language they are using with Spark: Python, Java or Scala. I have experience with both python and java and while python works very well for prototyping new Spark flows, once a flow becomes too complex I fall back

I think so, the app is purely focussed on OmniFocus integration and reuses their backend. Most of my customers pay for the app because they are heavy OmniFocus users on the Mac and recently switched to Android.

I currently make about 1000EUR/month consistently from an Android app I sell for 9.99EUR. It's a tasks app that syncs with OmniFocus. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=io.quantus.app...

There is currently a known issue where the app would crash after entering sync credentials on Android 4.3 and lower. A fix is about to be deployed but it might take a couple hours before the updates propagates throughout the Play Store.

I'm taking a look at the crash logs and I think I have figured out what it is. Give me an hour or so to validate my assumptions and roll out a fix.
