Lately, my coding productivity has been related to the time of day as well. I find myself doing more work in the evening or at night. Mainly because there's less disruptions (people) around to distract me online and offline. I could fo

That's always been a pet peeve of mine on Android, though now it seems both ecosystems will have a slightly more consistent user experience if one uses devices on both OSs a lot.

I just tried the site and it worked okay for me (2mins after you posted this). Also the CDN test seems to work okay as well. Try doing a trace route.

Even with the device provisioning and tower handoffs now being done within the SIM card in LTE enabled devices on Verizon, they still require consent to get any sort of CDMA signal (which until VoLTE rolls out, includes making phone calls).

Much of the hardware for the higher end Android devices is composed of stuff from a handful of OEMs, so that also helps. Also many of the devices that come out around the same time are using at least some identical components. SoCs are all

Good to know they're finally going for uniformity. I was mostly referring to the average developer whose code you might read at work or from some code one might find on Github. Major frameworks and libraries going in that directly thou

I never actually heard of FIG and have been using PHP for quite a few years. Are they new? I don't follow PHP news as close as I used to with having to use other languages more often so perhaps that is why. Only standards I was aware o

I remember XobotOS. I was kind of excited about it, but then nothing happened with it after they made a press announcement. I had some questions about it when they still had comments posted on their blog. They decided to remove the comments

viewtext.org was great for stuff like that (and didn't require an account, unlike readability). Hasn't been up for a while though, unfortunately.

Yup, I actually have a license for it and currently using it with MonoGame. It's also quite nice for native development as well with how they tweak the APIs to be more C# like instead of Java (plus async/await). I didn't reco

Hmm, I've heard of React, but have not had a chance to look at it much or use it yet. Looks like it would be better than any of the other alternatives out there though for PHP with a similar feature set. Thanks for the recommendation.

A Java VM for .net already exists[1] (Scala for .net leverages it). Obviously the presentation layer would need rewritten for the platform and also for XAML, but an Android app and Windows Phone 8 app can share much of their base code if do

Although it's not a feature that appeals to everyone, modern PHP (5.4+) has nearly any sort of syntactic/structural feature one would want in a programming language, except enumerations[0]. After using them in Scala, traits are al

Android has had support for bluetooth game controllers for years and has yet to get widely adopted by end users. I think there's even been some companies that have tried specializing in controllers for Android.
