bwdraco: still having the same issue with your phone?

also the win 10 anniversary update installed an ssh server on my skat

bwDraco

@GuitarShoeDave Not exactly a "problem" but more a technical limitation.

Guitar Shoe Dave

are you having a "technical limitation??" anymore

bwDraco

The CPU already throttles down quite heavily. Normally, the A57 cores on the SD808 just drop offline, but I've configured it (with root, through Kernel Adiutor) to keep the cores running anyway (even at very low clocks, 384 MHz).

im talking about the do not disturb issue

DND? I haven't updated the phone yet.

I just updated a few days ago.

Guitar Shoe Dave

should be fixed now

just saying

bwDraco

Nothing new in CyanDelta just yet.

Guitar Shoe Dave

love that cyandelta

bwDraco

Besides, for a minor issue like this, I probably would just wait a bit. I try not to flash updates every single day, GBs of data get written to the NAND every time this happens.

CyanDelta generates a new zip, close to 1 GB written. ROM is flashed, another 1 GB written. Then you have the system recompiling all the installed apps...

I now do this about twice a month.

Hey I might be an idiot, I might even be a dangerous idiot, but at least I'm crafty one.

Guitar Shoe Dave

id rather be a dangerous idiot honestly. depending how dangerous is defined.

Dog

In my case, drenching all the walls and surfaces with water, and leaving exposed live electrical wiring trailing across the wet floor

And walking over it barefoot

Guitar Shoe Dave

yea that could have ended pretty bad lol

To be fair whether you consider that dangerous depends a lot on who you ask and how technically minded they are

There's actually no reason it'd be unsafe unless you were dumb enough to pick up the live wire and stick it in your mouth or something

Which some younger, dumber cats might do

Can Concrete Protect iPhone 6s from 100 FT Drop Test? - GizmoSlip

►

wouldn't the concrete increase the mass of the system and thereby transfer even more kinetic energy into the phone upon impact?

Psycogeek

it should, but running out of stupid ideas, it probably makes another YouTube :-)

Perhaps as I learn programming, we'll use this space to discuss things like agile and unit tests so I'll be better prepared for a real development job.

My goal is to get a sense of how software development works in the real world, on my own time and before I do this for a living.

I know the idea of trying to get experience without being on the job may seem weird, but I want to be prepared for an actual career in programming, to learn the things most people don't learn in a classroom.

Unit tests, SCMs, release engineering, product planning, agile development, code review, all the stuff they don't teach you in college.

DevOps, DEV/TEST/STAGE/PROD, change control, QA, defect tracking, so much to learn!

@bwDraco You need time!

Psycogeek

What is the first piece of software you want to make? because people learn by doing, applying what they learn, trying to make something and fumbling through it and learning what you need to learn to do so.

bwDraco

The idea is to be prepared like a Boy Scout, so that I can jump in and start working as quickly as possible.

Psycogeek

If you plop a programming book in front of someone and say learn it, you can hope that programming book has example programs that you create (and fumble through) while you learn. otherwise you would have to enjoy reading War&peace for the adsorption.

Paul Vargas

@bwDraco Good luck!
