MY ANDROID TOOLBOX →
…Turns out programming for an embedded device is different. You do not use dependency injection and program against interfaces because performance and lazy loading are everything. You test most parts in context (using Instrumentation) and yes, configuration is done in XML(thankfully, resources at least get translated into classes). Also, library size and speed matter…

Ninth worker death at Taiwan iPhone firm Foxconn →
This is truly a terrible thing. What I’d like to know is whether this is being published because it’s Apple and that it happens in a lot in China factories? Or is this truly isolated to the factory works for Apple’s shiny products.
