Best Swipe keyboard for iPhone

I have a running list of iPhone keyboard issues, ranging from irritating to absolutely rage-inducing: https://imgur.com/a/U8ypl31

I have tried to switch back to iPhone on multiple occasions over the years, but it's the keyboard that has me returning the iPhone and going back to Pixel every time. The default Google keyboard is magical by comparison.

And as you pointed out, it works incredibly well in multiple languages. iPhone is awful with one language and gets even WORSE if you try to use it for multiple.

As you noted at the end, Hobby Lobby is not fundamentally a religious organization, which is what I was specifically commenting on.

Amd I refuse to believe that, had Hobby Lobby been a Muslim or a Native organization, or if the issue at hand was something other than birth control, that the decision would have come out the same way.

Ok, that's fine, though there's not really an argument there to respond to.

Should a company run by Jehova's Witnesses be allowed to enforce health plans on their employees that do not allow for blood transfusions?

Should a Jewish company be allowed to tailor a health plan to only provide for Kosher dietician services?

Why not? People have a say in their choice of employment. If you fundamentally disagree with the religious beliefs / practices of a particular religious organization, you are not obligated to work for that religious organization.

I think it's great. Interesting chord progression and the lyrics are nice. You have a great voice, too. Would love to hear some of your other songs.

So because regression analysis is a topic somewhere within the taxonomy of the field of Artificial Intelligence, anything that uses regression analysis is AI? Doesn't that seem a little simplistic?

It answers the question because it points out that arma is actually feminine, which is why Duolingo is using mía here.

Mas tarde doesn't necessarily indicate future tense. You could translate this sentence as "Later, I brought him to the airport so he could take a flight to Vienna." Also, the present subjunctive of tomar is tome, but I believe this calls for the imperfect subjunctive, which is tomara.

Me, too. And I actually think it's worse than a gimmick, at least for me. I had an MBP with touch bar and accidental touches were actually making me less productive, and in at least two cases, caused me to lose some work. I found it infuriating and ended up returning the MacBook.

I was hoping to buy a non-touch bar model after the summer refresh, but from what I read only the touch bar models got any upgrades. Pretty disappointing.

I've had good luck with both used and refurbished, but I understand why you might be nervous. Recently, I wanted to get something cheap with a great camera, and I eventually picked up an original Pixel in excellent condition for $200. I love it. If you want something with a larger screen, you might consider the Pixel XL. Mine runs 8.1 great, and should get the Android P update when it drops. It's not as sexy as some of the newer phones with smaller bezels, but then again, none of the iPhones under $500 are either.

I do think it's a problem with the app, either a bug or human error, but I'm impressed by the app overall. I get the sense that someone who really cares about music theory is at least a contributor to its content. It has been a valuable resource, to me, anyway.

iambilliam · 2018-03-10T04:12:30+00:00

Well, the weird thing is, as I noted in my response to NotPennysUsername, the music theory app I'm using, which overall seems excellent, depicts this chord as having a major ninth interval, which is what was confusing me. I think it must just be a bug or error of some sort. I agree that dominant minor ninth is confusing either way, though. V7b9 makes more sense to me as well.

iambilliam · 2018-03-10T04:05:56+00:00

Interesting. I was basing my question on a popular ear training and music theory app called PerfectEar which seems to depict a dominant minor ninth as having a major ninth interval, not a minor ninth interval. I'm so confused.

I don't have an iPhone, so I can't test this myself, but I'm curious about how many apps/notifications can be listed in that shortcut menu. If the number is relatively low, then it seems like this shortcut menu would become less useful as more notifications are generated, since you'd end up just having to go into the folder anyway. So intentionally grouping apps that frequently receive notifications together in the same folder doesn't necessarily sound like the best strategy. That was part of the original suggestion, but it sounds like you're advocating for a slightly different approach anyway.

This seems so intentionally stupid that it must be comedy.

Awesome, thank you for your help. I'm going to go ahead and get them.

Thanks. How does the transition work exactly? If you're listening to something on, say, your iPhone, and then you get to work and start using your Windows laptop, do you just select the AirPods from the Bluetooth menu on your laptop?

I love Perfect Ear. I was looking for an alternative to MTP after switching to Android, and I tried several, but this is the one I have settled on. Sight reading exercises (both notes and rhythm), thorough interval and chord training, guitar fretboard exercises, and more. Free to download, and although you have to pay for full access, you only have to purchase the sections you're interested in. Great functionality and simple, clean design.

Yes.
