    SQLite works great as the database engine for most low to medium traffic websites (which is to say, most websites). The amount of web traffic that SQLite can handle depends on how …

    What's more interesting to me is that, so far, this strategy has worked fairly well for him and the other shareholders.

    Does your "Careers No Reply" email send auto-rejection messages? I applied for the Senior Android dev role around 5 weeks ago and got a rejection message 11 days later, so I'd like…

    And how IS fiat a Ponzi scheme? You don't buy into the US dollar expecting your "share" of dollars to go up. You just use it to pay for stuff.

    Raw fiat is NOT a new experiment, the Yuan dynasty in China printed paper money in the 13th century, not backed by any precious metal or commodity. They printed too much and had in…

    Well, he said Java for Android. The Android SDK is a capricious beast and the documentation is often outdated or sub-par.

    That's a tricky question. You could say Ukraine has Russian roots in that it split off of the Russian Empire and then the USSR. You could also say Russia has Ukrainian roots becaus…

    They may also be very unclear or outright missing, depending on the country.

    That's kind of a moot point - most Android devices are not Google's own phones, so you can't ship a reliable user experience on most Android devices.

    Lots of companies are not profitable in the beginning, that's not a problem for many investors.

    Kinda... developing UIs is around 10x easier and faster, but you can get in trouble when you want to integrate with device APIs like Camera, Location, etc. You also don't have such…

    Android is open-source but large parts of it aren't - for example, the google play services libs. The open parts can take literal years to get a fix merged and deployed, so "some o…

    Yeah, I believe the point was to inline source code so it's easier to reason about as you read it, not to inline at compilation for some runtime advantage.

    Am I the only one who thinks it's weird that there are no tests in the repo?

    +1 on starting out with 16 hour fasts. It also seems that some people can't tolerate fasting for whatever reason, so GP might just not be cut out for it.

    Fasting != malnourishment tho. Anecdotally, I've been doing 16/8, 20/4 intermittent fasting and a couple of 24-48h fasts over the past 10 years and have not yet developed anorexia.…

    And even if it doesn't get sold/canned/broken, they can still change the EULA for any arbitrary reason.

    I agree. If we invert the argument: just because C++ and C# were designed by Danes, does that make them Danish languages? That sounds absurd! It's almost like saying the iPhone is …

    Actually it's acceptable to answer your own question, as long as it's a useful contribution, so it might be worth it to just post the question after all.
