So your new job is as a receptionist?

What advantages does the google assitant give?
And you had to install it through a messaging app?
Owner of a S7 being curious here...
PS:
I remember my old BB phone with mixed feelings: wonderful keyboard, nice shortcuts, easy copy and paste, wonderful voice recongnition, unlimited international data plan.
Now with my S7, I can do much better pictures, all multimedia is better... But the keyboard is much worse.
Thanks.

You apparently can't install it directly (except on the Pixel where it is embedded), yet but if you install "Google Allo" then it gives you most of the Assistant functionality via "text messages" and voice.

Can you replace bixby with google assistant or do they have to be used in parallel, I'm talking about the irritating button that seems to launch the silly bugger at odd times.

I saw one article that said it could be done but I can't find it again - I read it on the S8+ and haven't figured out how to navigate through the morass of ads and information completely yet. When I find it, if it works, I'll let you know.

B4A (Basic 4 Android) is easy to learn, very similar to VB6 and is less than $100.

They also have versions for iOS and Arduino.

No, sorry. You are completely alone!

I thought so. Never seen a Linux desktop app developer yet.
I'll keep searching.
|
|
|
|

No. I used to, but since long I'm in search for cross platform and since .NET Core is here I'm using it both on Linux and Windows...

I was curious about that myself. So do you do backend / services or do you create desktop apps that run on linux too?
|
|

I use .NET Core to back-end (APIs) and put a HTML based app on front of it...
There is no true cross-platform UI today, except HTML in browser...

And probably never will be.
By the time they create it, there will be only one OS -- which will be IoT_OS.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

That's a redundant statement. 0 + 0 is still 0.
Next you will be telling us that JavaScript is a programming language.
I need a perfect, to the point answer as I am not aware of this.
Please don't reply explaining what method overloading is

It is known that any number to the power of zero is equal to 1 (n0 = 1)...
Is is also known that any power of zero is zero too (0n = 0)...
JavaScript is the 00... A number we know all the rules for, but still can not define it...

Nope, slathering Bondo on some rust to which I've taken a wire brush with the hope that I've gotten enough shine on the metal present to impart a kind of morbid resignation on any of it that's hidden but is still picking up that ambience of olden days and at wit's end now should be just about giving up the ghost with a whimper ... today.

You can do Linux application development just for fun, to fill like a real programmer BTW, try Eclipse instead of CodeBlocks.
The real thing and real business is embedded Linux. This is tough, and you need to make a long way to understand something in this area. Good luck.

I have done a lot of old style command line / daemon programming (make files and C/C++ compiler) and scripts (bash, perl).
That is what I would call "native Linux development".
I have also created a Qt application (direct video output; no window manager) for the Raspberry Pi using cross compilation (Ubuntu in Windows VM using QtCreator).

Again, interesting, since that is the feel I get, that few devs do native Linux application dev.
It's probably the available tools and of course challenges of UI dev.
I downloaded two main apps on my Ubuntu installation:
Calibre (ebook reader - reads mobi, etc)
FileZilla : ftp transfer app
Both are very well done and have a look and feel similar to their windows counterparts.

Try building a native installer - if you have the time

Yes, you are not alone.
However, no GUI developnment, so far.
