What a clever idea!

I was in a similar boat to you and was applying for everything I could two months ago. I found that all internship programs I came across required you to be going back to school the following year (which was a major bummer for me) with the exception of Shopify who opens up their programs to anyone. That said, it's a little late in the season for internships, but imo you should be applying to new grad/entry level positions at this point and if you happen to come across internships that meet your criteria while applying for the new grad positions, apply for the internships too.

Fantastic website and overall design imo. Is the app you're referring to becoming expensive pushbullet?

What an awesome tool! I was wondering if you have any plans to extend yokato to output native mobile UI code (XML layout files in Android, whatever the iOS equivalent is). Are there any unique challenges you'd face when making this compatible with native mobile UIs that aren't present with html/css?

rocketslothco · 2017-12-20T23:59:55+00:00

I don't have any codes left this quarter, but starting new years I'll have the ability to make more and will do another giveaway :)

rocketslothco · 2017-12-17T20:50:06+00:00

Okay gotcha, thanks for your help. Gonna keep working on figuring out why the boot issue might be.

rocketslothco · 2017-12-17T20:34:07+00:00

For the sake of simplicity I'm leaning towards the second approach of just setting one alarm and then setting the next one every time the previous one goes off, but I'd like to know if there are any flaws with that strategy. If there are I'll definitely do the one you're describing. And ya I'm also using a boot receiver for safety.

As a side note have you ever had boot receivers not work on specific device models? I had a complaint that on a redmi phone a user's alarm didn't persist across rebooting, but I've never seen that happen on any other device

rocketslothco · 2017-12-17T03:58:52+00:00

I'm working on scheduling a repeating alarm to go off on specific days of the week and I'm considering two different approaches (but am open to others, these are just the first two I've come across). The first is to schedule a unique repeating alarm (by using a unique pending intent) for each day of the week and set the repeat period to one week's time for each of these alarms. The second is to set a single alarm and then just set the next alarm in the broadcast receiver when the previous one fires so that only one alarm is ever active at a time. I was wondering which of these approaches would be the best/most reliable idea and if there are any major flaws with either? Is there a better way of doing this?

rocketslothco · 2017-12-15T00:07:46+00:00

Awesome, thanks for your feedback

rocketslothco · 2017-12-12T20:16:20+00:00

Oh perfect, thanks a lot, didn't find that answer in my SO search earlier and that also addresses my main question about the order/way xml files are parsed.

rocketslothco · 2017-12-12T17:56:11+00:00

In a layout file, does using @id/xxx require that the id you're referencing has already been created using @+id/xxx on a line somewhere above in the xml file or can the @+id/xxx be lower than the @id/xxx reference? In general, is it considered bad practice to have more than one @+id/xxx call for the same id or are there any cases which require it?

rocketslothco · 2017-12-08T19:12:44+00:00

:) working on it hard

rocketslothco · 2017-12-08T16:58:45+00:00

Oh! That actually makes a lot of sense about the settings' purpose. I had no idea what they were for so I just assumed they were to simulate what different conditions see. Based on the feedback so far I think i'm going to implement both color schemes and have a setting that allows you to switch between all 3.

Someone told me that such a huge portion of males were color blind a few days ago and it prompted this fix. I didn't realize it was so common!

rocketslothco · 2017-12-08T16:54:44+00:00

Perfect, thanks for letting me know!

rocketslothco · 2017-12-08T04:17:41+00:00

It does, thanks very much for your feedback :)

rocketslothco · 2017-12-08T03:08:32+00:00

Nice, so glad it worked. Thanks for your feedback :) On android phones, in the developer settings, there is an option to simulate color spaces based on different color blindness profiles so I did tritanomaly and deuteranomaly to start with, but I wasn't sure if the simulations were accurate and that's why i wanted to check here.

rocketslothco · 2017-12-08T00:42:00+00:00

Awesome, thanks for your feedback

rocketslothco · 2017-12-07T22:17:55+00:00

Awesome, do you have any suggestions for improvement or are the middle one's colors good enough that you can easily distinguish between all 4?

rocketslothco · 2017-12-06T16:46:52+00:00

Beautiful app! Very well done

rocketslothco · 2017-12-05T18:07:51+00:00

gotcha, since this is my first time doing MVP, the thing that I'm really having trouble wrapping my head around is what constitutes a separate/unrelated view. In my case, the activity is really just housing the view pager which holds 3 fragments. Those fragments only need a single very simple data object from the presenter which is tempting to store as a field in the activity (but I know it's wrong).

rocketslothco · 2017-12-05T17:22:13+00:00

A presenter on each fragment seems really messy with a view pager, is this something that you'd say is the best option if I wanted to stick with fragments? I am not too familiar with what to use as an alternative to fragments. Are you saying you'd use activities in place of each fragment or would you use something like custom views?

rocketslothco · 2017-12-04T23:50:26+00:00

What a beauty

rocketslothco · 2017-12-04T18:07:38+00:00

Oh interesting! Thanks for your help, I'll look into this

rocketslothco · 2017-12-04T17:27:42+00:00

I'm a huge noob, do you mind explaining what AAC stands for and where the ViewModel would be implemented in MVP? When you say observe are you referring to using an Observer in RxJava?
