The submission title does not match the content. The majority of this post concerns the author's investigation of processes running on his Nexus 7. He claims to have empirical evid…

Just a idea that drifted into my head: The background being of a butterfly specimen display, realistic and in faint grey, and one of the butterflies in full colour with the label P…

Ever since updating to Lollipop, my Nexus 4 has had sudden restarts a few times a week. It's a very disappointing reduction in quality which makes me question whether to go Android…

You haven't said anything about the kid being interested in programming, so I'm not sure IntelliJ is going to be of any use. It's a very heavy tool, perhaps too much for anyone jus…

Does anyone else find it difficult to highlight things on this page? Specifically, 'kvetchery' which is found in the third paragraph. I believe the author is the one responsible fo…

Um, people have already been able to use Scala to make Android applications. Just about anything that doesn't require dynamically generated JVM bytecode can manage, difficult and e…

I like it. Is the grade level calculated with Fleisch-Kincaid? $5 is a reasonable price (to me) for a minimal text editor with this feature, though I would prefer something meatier…

There's not much going on here. Look on meetup.com for a few things that might interest you.

This is a major undertaking. IMO, you will most likely end up reaching the lower-hanging fruit of depression rather than suicide. Good luck.

I started using Kotlin on the weekend and I have been pretty happy with it. The only issues I have with it so far is that I would like to use a package name with more than two iden…

Does this replace the homescreen like Apex Launcher and Nova Launcher? It doesn't seem to be that kind of launcher, from looking at the screenshots.

I enjoyed reading this. I mostly know Java and not so much Javascript, but there's something delightful in the idea the writer lays out. As much as I like Android, it isn't really …
