Let's be honest: what was the basic action against boredom? TV!
I, for one, consider smartphones much more useful gap-fillers than television (or on the toilet: reading shampoo usage instructions:). On the television you only rarely watch meaningful programmes, and even if you do, selection is much more limited. (Fox news, hello.)
On the smartphone you read news, you read blogs, you watch youtube videos. It can, of course be "abused" for gaming, but you get bored with a certain game lot sooner than you'd think.
Two things:
- AI chatbot applicable, which automatically redirects to real-persons when needed
- as colleague mentioned, multitasking. Phone means I can talk to one user at a time; when I was a hard-core casual chatter, I usually had 5-6 private chat windows open.
Slashdot Mirror
Here the company still uses CVS, plus auto-formatting should not affect legacy codebase.
Our solution: upon commit, a simple perl CVS wrapper script calls uncrustify for all files that carry a special tag.
