I'm allergic to cigarette smoke so it bothers me a lot.

Germans and French travelers are particularly frequent smokers.

I was at a restaurant in Sucre and 4 people around me were smoking.

100% sure Tulio is going to lose if he files a lawsuit.

Also IMO, this Github Page is the best Awesome Berlin page on the internet.

Bernie won more delegates in Michigan.

Hillary won more delegates in Mississippi.

She won more delegates after combining both states.

It's rigged?

Re: Campos pushes moratorium on luxury housing in the Mission

"The existing zoning, under the Eastern Neighborhoods Plan, “has failed the Mission,” he said, pointing out that 8,000 Latino residents have been lost in the past decade. The population of the Mission was 52 percent Latino a decade ago; now it’s down to 40 percent."

Why is it imperative to preserve the % of Latinos in the Mission?

Should Chinatown preserve it for Asians too?

If you go with Parcelable, use the Parceler library. https://github.com/johncarl...

We use RxJava with Retrofit.

We got rid of TypeAdapterFactory classes by using .map/.flatMap.

I personally find Moto 360 beautiful. I guess I have no taste. :)

Wait so the author has never used the Moto 360 but found it dubious and gives us a warning?

Re: Noh assessed two-stroke penalty for hitting from green

Looking at the video, it seems like an official was watching Noh.

Golf is a gentleman's game. Shouldn't a gentleman inform somebody if they are about to commit a rules violation unintentionally?

Re: Noh assessed two-stroke penalty for hitting from green

dannyroa — Fri, 22 Aug 2014 12:48:32 -0000

So officials who were watching knew that he was about to commit a rules violation and none of them said anything to him?

Ryan,

Are you talking about versionCode in the APK filename?

I have this is my build gradle.

release {
runProguard false
proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.txt'
signingConfig signingConfigs.release
applicationVariants.all { variant ->
def file = variant.outputFile
def versionCode = defaultConfig.versionCode
variant.outputFile =
new File(file.parent, file.name.replace(".apk", "-" + versionCode + ".apk"))
}
}

Re: How to autoscroll a ListView

dannyroa — Wed, 28 May 2014 14:13:13 -0000

I ended up doing something like this for one of my projects.

getListView().smoothScrollToPositionFromTop(currentItemPosition, itemHeight - scrollY, 30);

I had a timer that runs every 30 ms.

If you are using Log.d, no need to check if BuildConfig.DEBUG. When you compile your release APK, Log.d will be automatically excluded.

CNN tries to appear unbiased. Assign blame on the victims too.

Re: Google Pressure Cookers and Backpacks, Get a Visit from the Feds

So it's a major conspiracy then?

The Police is protecting Google!

Re: Google Pressure Cookers and Backpacks, Get a Visit from the Feds

Sorry. It looks like this article is inaccurate. This was released by the Police:

===================

Suffolk County Criminal Intelligence Detectives received a tip from a Bay Shore based computer company regarding suspicious computer searches conducted by a recently released employee. The former employee’s computer searches took place on this employee’s workplace computer. On that computer, the employee searched the terms “pressure cooker bombs” and “backpacks.”

After interviewing the company representatives, Suffolk County Police Detectives visited the subject’s home to ask about the suspicious internet searches. The incident was investigated by Suffolk County Police Department’s Criminal Intelligence Detectives and was determined to be non-criminal in nature.

Any further inquiries regarding this matter should be directed to the Suffolk County Police Department

You can choose not to reply to your users. It doesn't force you to do anything even if the feature is enabled.

So you cannot use Google Apps now because Reader is gone?

Your business cannot operate smoothly because Reader is gone?

Your work is more difficult because Reader is gone?

"Third, and lastly, Google is sending a strong signal to the market that it will have no mercy of killing whatever product it doesn’t think it’s going well."

Doesn't this make a lot of sense? If you're an investor, would you want a company to continue putting resources and money into a failing product or service?

Re: The Farce That Is Google+ (Updated)

dannyroa — Mon, 28 Jan 2013 12:08:03 -0000

Are you referring to 135m figure (directly from Google) to be padded or 343m number (not from Google?

I don't understand how you showed the number was padded? I can't find the proof.

Re: The Farce That Is Google+ (Updated)

dannyroa — Mon, 28 Jan 2013 12:00:55 -0000

" And no way in hell are their 135 million..."

Any proof that they are padding the numbers?

Josh,

Thanks for the reply.

I haven't gotten that far that's why I haven't updated resources.py.

Any idea what the problem is related to the error when trying to save/update the tweet?

Re: Backbone.js and Django : blog : Josh Bohde

Hi Josh,

I'm trying to add an Update & Delete on your sample app.

I'm new to Backbone & I'm having trouble figuring it out.

I'm getting the following error:

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot call method 'set' of undefined

The error is at https://github.com/dannyroa....

Thanks.

Danny
