On iOS, we use accessibility identifiers as UI identifiers for the UI automated tests that run as part of every build upon a commit. Same thing happens for our Android version.
I'm unimpressed at Google trying to weed out "casual" users of their accessibility in order to minimize a security issue that's their problem. Even if an app has marginal support for accessibility, it's still a good thing as opposed to not having accessibility altogether.
They are already cheaper when you calculate the entire cost of ownership over the period of the EV's warranty (typically 8 years).
No brake pads to replace until well after 100,000miles, no oil changes, no fluctuating gas price fill ups, no waiting in miserable weather for minutes on end to fill up every week (or more depending on car and guzzling rate).
My Gen2 Volt costs 1.59$CAD per every full charge of ~90km range average for 9 months of the year, and ~65km in dire winter.
I'm currently at +3400km on the same gas tank (it has range extender gas generator). It's the best car I ever bought. By a long stretch. Ironically I had bought it to have a dependable maintenance-free car while I rebuilt my turbo 4-banger. End result: looking at selling my rebuilt car. Drove is less than 200km this season.
Doubt me? Here are my starts for my car, Time Lord, since I've owned it in Dec. 2015.
I'm not telling you to buy a Volt (but it's the best IMO). Chose an EV that can sustain 80% of your daily commute in EV mode without recharge. And you'll wonder why you didn't do it before.
Until the patent laws are reformed (good luck with that), companies are forced to play the game and protect their investment, particularly since the advent of patent trolls, in order to avoid frivolous lawsuits.
Some companies participate in patent pools as a means of protection AND advancements.
Heck, I know patents are evil. But I have one to my name. We have incentives to apply for them if they are found to have value.
You never had direct access to the file system, so why do you care?
I work on a file system -intensive commercial App and we haven't had to bat an eye lid about these changes, because we use standard APIs and dont linger on deprecated APIs.
Apple sets pricing on their phones especially to prevent one seller to undercut another. (They're still expensive but get lots with them, IMO).
In my view, AT&T workers protesting at Apple is just retarded (in the most demeaning way you can take it). It's not Apple's fault AT&T workers are underpaid.
Forgot to mention: those are my thoughts and impression. Not an official Oracle statement. I claim not to know the inner workings of management decisions.
He bought it mainly because of Java. Oracle has a huge investment in Java and there was no way in hell he could afford to let it die or, worse yet, let it go to IBM.
Solaris was a nice bonus because Oracle also had lots of investment in that hardware/software platform for it's own servers. From where I sit, I saw a gradual move to Oracle Linux over the years but I can not say wether that is responsible for dropping Solaris/Spark.
There was a time I had a Solaris virtual box. Mostly unused but was useful when I needed to install a particular server instance for the applications I was doing at the time. Nowadays, I have an Oracle Linux virtual machine on which runs one of our development tools, for our App development. Other members in the team have their own Oracle Linux virtual machine to host dev or qa instances of the server for our App development use.
Haven't seen an OpenSolaris box in years, but I know one of our training center in MDC has (had?) a few boxes on there. Not sure they are still there. Been ages since I walked in that office.
Without some level of feature parity, Google couldn't convince that developing for their platform would be profitable for developers to target both devices.
And before we hear the "there's more Android phones out there", you just need to look at the version of these phones to know that it's inconsequential. Enterprise and high-paying users are the target. Not those stuck in 4 year old systems.

It's spelt "colour".
Chevy Gen2 Volt's infotainment runs GMLinux. Saw it on the core dump of a crash of another driver's car.
Been an Apple developer since 1988. Coded on them since 1982. Stuck with the brand through salt and grime. Now been an iPhone developer for 10 years.
Know what? Can't be brought to give a hoot about a watch that will die of obsolescence in ~4 years and can't hold a full 24h.
You dont have to. I used my 4s until I upgraded to a 6+ that I still use today.
Maybe next year. I'm not keen on upgrading for an issue of megapixels. Not a photograph. And I dont care for failing oled screens.
It's also a problem for accessibility laws.

Read up on Projext Orion and on Aircraft Nuclear Propulsion (both closed-loop and open-loop designs).
Extrapolate.
Profit.
Canadian-owned and operated D-Wave computer has way more that 50 Q-bits with a 1000Q model available and a 2K in the works.
The day the federal incentive (or your location's equivalent—here provincial) can no longer pay for itself will be a win for everyone.
There are other ways to finance the roads. But that's beside the point I'm answering: EVs are, today, cheaper to operate when you factor everything.

So you dont qualify.
Oracle also uses electricity and running water.
Have fun in the stone age.
Wrong title. Disregard.
Or read a book!

The compelling reason would be the price difference.
When the 6+ came out, I forked for the BIG model: 128g storage. It amounted to ~950$CAD.
This new X, is 400$CAD MORE for half the storage on the base model.
Not going to happen.

Why would Oracle buy RedHat?
Oracle Linux 7 is already based on RHEL7. Both open source. One based on the other. What's to buy? Support contracts?

It's not like they are full of chips made from an adversary country.

I suppose we should be glad they didn't measure that in football fields.
How many is that in Library Of Congress? /rhetorical
