What actually happens is >5 year old PC gets slow >buy SSD and reinstall >runs a little faster but you wasted an hour plus of your time
>5 year old android phone gets slow >wipe OS and install lineage if supported, or else screwed with vulnerable buggy OS >runs about the same and you wasted hours of your time
>7 year old iphone no longer supported for new updates >go to apple store >walk out 20 minutes later with fast new phone

year old iphone bricked by lagOS updates >>go to apple store >>walk out 20 minutes later with fast new phone >with a sore anus Fixed.
Christian Mitchell
My point exactly. Swift outperforms slow Java.
Julian Allen
If a miracle would happen and Apple would create a better phone than my S8+ I still wouldn't buy one because it still comes with gimpOS. Can you even remove the preinstalled data cap yet or are they still shutting down your service if you reach it, no matter that your data plan is unlimited with fixed price? That was one of the times I actually laughed at iPhone users. Apple holds all the cards, users just have to shut up and obey.

I'm wondering how it failed too. Perhaps they wrote buggy code in it or didn't give it enough RAM for the problem size?
Connor Johnson
You can use whatever language you want on android.
Julian Anderson
>7 year old iphone Nice meme. Apple makes sure the old phones are unusable by the time newer model comes out. A 7 year old iPhone would only find use as a door stopper.
How would I go about writing an Android app in, let's say, Ruby? Are there even bindings for the Android API for Ruby?
Charles Adams
There are C bindings, setting up Ruby is simply a matter of giving a shit. Android supported pre-compiled code in applications since 1.0.
Cooper Ramirez
>pre-compiled code in applications That's a library called by a mostly-Java application, typically used for processing. You still have to write a bunch of other shit in Java, no?
Adam Jackson
Only jvm langs(and langs that can compile to work on dalvik/art like C# + dot42 or xamarin) can run on android. You can use NDK (doesn't have all the APIs) with C and C++ with pajeet callbacks to handle UI activity through the jvm but that would be really really awful for perf and maintainability.
