But Brave is malware, so not a great trade-off

We know it’s not an Apple user because they are using WhatsApp instead of exclusively iMessage.

/s :P

That is true, but that’s still a weirdly phrased question if what you wanted to know is if it’s a Mac.

SpaceX is quite “real”. No other company is even close to it’s tech, low cost, and launch cadence. It’s because it’s run by Gwynne Shotwell, the President of SpaceX, who is skilled at keeping Musk away from ruining it.

Nobody would ask for the brand in reality. For 99% of computer issues it’s going to be something specific to the used software or Windows, and if the hardware turned out to be relevant in any way, you’d ask for the model because the brand itself is useless for most issues.

Sorry it was just jarring to me. :P

The touchscreen controls and displays in SpaceX crew capsules are web based. So JavaScript is going to space pretty often.

It’s in Kotlin and some other languages. C# has it but there it’s actually A ?? B.

It’s a shorthand for writing this:

variable = if (input != null) input else default

This is equivalent:

variable = input ?: default

It’s a shorthand for writing this:

variable = if (input != null) input else default

This is equivalent:

variable = input ?: default

The answers confusing it with the ternary operator are wrong.

Because it’s not one. Ternary operator is A ? B : C, Elvis operator is A ?: B. The same two characters are involved, but both the syntax and effect is different.

There is a difference between running in the background and being in memory.

Recent Apps may or may not be in memory, that’s why when you switch to a “recent” app not used in a while it restarts anyway instead of continuing where you left it, it’s effectively just a bookmark to a closed app. So the list being long doesn’t mean these apps are using memory.

While running in the background is unrelated, apps can run in the background regardless if they are in the Recents list or not. And it can absolutely cause issues or excessive battery usage, but clearing the Recents list is not the solution.

I agree, but that has nothing to do with the release cadence.

All in all, the film makers had many things they could choose to make the effect look plausible, but they didn’t.

You could make an argument that there was some kind of huge spinning gyroscope reaction wheel system on that axis which projected the explosion that way.

But we all know there wasn’t.

@RemindMe @RemindMe@programming.dev 15 years, tell this guy he’s wrong

It was fine in Mr Robot.

So you are advocating for slowing down the work on Android, or for keeping the pace the same but witholding the updates for longer before a release? Or something else?

It can be (linen.dev is one such solution). But the server owners have to set it up obviously, and often they don’t. But it’s not an issue if they cared to.

There is no translation, it’s just a hard to pronounce Polish surname.

I refuse to believe you are not certain this is a joke
