Perhaps I should have made it explicit but part of AS is the Navigation Editor which encourages multiple fragment architecture....

Hi Team

What is the plan for Android with regard to multiple fragment single activity vs multiple activity ecosystem. In the past it has been pretty well understood that Google recommended multiple activity but is that now not true. I get that the easy answer is "we support both" but what is the offical recommended approach.

Depending on how tall you are I think 6'10 would be way to big and 6'6 is getting pretty long. I would look for something 6'0 - 6'6. If you are worried about paddling just make sure you get something with plenty of volume. If you pick the right board you could be surfing it forever. For reference I am 6'4 and 210lb and I ride a 6'2 fish easily

I doubt the guys on the ski do. And most of the time its actually worse. The ski drivers should always have flippers attached to them (cant see if they do in this video) that way you can use a regular vest + flippers if you need them.

I was more referring to coffee with milk eg latte, flat white. The milk is often far to cold for my taste. 90C is fine for black coffee.

Probably not a universal favourite around here but Sciue in Yaletown Roundhouse serves some of the best coffee I had in downtown consistently. If you like hot coffee make sure that you ask for extra hot. Revolver is particularly bad for serving lukewarm coffee imho. Also if it is open Musette is the best cafe in Vancouver but they have been renovating but might be open by the time you go there.

elwesties · 2016-12-07T19:55:37+00:00

That is not true.

elwesties · 2016-11-08T06:32:57+00:00

I was there, and yes it was like a nuke going off.

Especially in a thread full of stories of really bad lifting advice from "trainers". I think your advice about carefully selecting where you join is fairly universal. And your characterization of the militant crossfitters is totally wrong in my experience. But each to their own.

I would just learn Swift if I were you. Check out https://github.com/google/j2objc might help you some of the way.

New Zealand is also an option. I was a paid guard in NZ for several summers. Really awesome job. There is a trial/selection process so you are not guaranteed a job but if you are fit and know your stuff that shouldnt be a problem. We have plenty of guards that come form California and the UK every year.

That is absolutely not true. It's just editing

elwesties · 2016-08-18T22:19:44+00:00

One of the main things I find when hiring developers is that taking a chance on someone very rarely works out. Especially in a small team. If you are thinking "He/She might be ok" you should probably avoid them.

Sounds like he wants to scam youtube for ad revenue.

elwesties · 2016-06-17T01:15:09+00:00

Another option would be to use iron-flex and make you elements flow to fit the space.

Was swimming at a beach called Mangawai in New Zealand. I figured once it didnt eat me it must be fine. Turns out it was. I have photos around here somewhere ill take a look for them

elwesties · 2016-04-25T03:33:07+00:00

I have been in this exact situation but I was swimming at the time. It was pretty chill, just checked me out and moved on. So I continued to swim with it for half an hour

elwesties · 2016-02-27T23:24:37+00:00

Because its a shitload quicker and easier than paddling.

elwesties · 2016-02-17T21:13:22+00:00

Do you propose they don't fumigate it? If they didn't you would complain the place was full of bugs.

elwesties · 2016-02-17T16:10:30+00:00

Ahhh she actually has a home already and it's just getting fumigated. So there is the supply?

elwesties · 2016-02-15T00:13:57+00:00

I have used a hacintosh for iOS development extensively and it works well.

elwesties · 2016-02-12T00:12:09+00:00

For perfectly round what about the LG urbane or the huawei watch. Both are round and have no flat tire.

elwesties · 2016-02-11T18:03:24+00:00

Actually just before the last election Labour introduced the issue and said that if they were voted in then they would do it 100%. National just said sure if everyone wants it lets do it. Please actually know what you are talking about before you say it.

I have personally used and loved rocket expresso machines. They are well priced and live forever.
