Android Developers Backstage: The Podcast

Are there any geeks out there interested in new podcasts? What about podcasts about Android development?



Tor Norbye and I are proud to announce a new podcast we've started called Android Developers Backstage. It's a podcast by and for Android programmers, featuring engineers on the Android team at Google talking about features, APIs, and technologies that we think are important for developers to know about. Or which we find interesting. Or which randomly happened to come up on the show.



If your podcast client still has room and you have an extra half-hour (ish) every month (ish), then subscribe and tune in. You can find the podcast on Feedburner. Just click on one of the various links on that page to add it to your podcast client of choice.



The inaugural episode is about Android KitKat, with Tor and I talking about some of the new features in the latest release. In future episodes of the podcast, we'll interview other engineers on the team to deep-dive technologies they've worked on. Android development info, straight from the source.

Women and children overboard

It's the  Catch-22  of clinical trials: to protect pregnant women and children from the risks of untested drugs....we don't test drugs adequately for them. In the last few decades , we've been more concerned about the harms of research than of inadequately tested treatments for everyone, in fact. But for "vulnerable populations,"  like pregnant women and children, the default was to exclude them.

It got so bad, that by the late 1990s, the FDA realized regulations and more for pregnant women - and women generally - had to change. The NIH (National Institutes of Health) took action too. And so few drugs had enough safety and efficacy information for children that, even in official circles, children were being called "therapeutic orphans."  Action began on that, too. There is still a long way to go. But this month there was a sign that ...

Austerity-A Fancy Word for Destitute.

The reason for this post is not for the folks who have been caught in the first wave of personal economic hard reality, but the next wave. Regardless of the optimism espoused by grinning leaders and sycophant press, we are entering the final stage of global economic collapse. It began in 2008 and was forestalled for five years with fudge putty, but the weight of global indebtedness cannot be propped any longer and the final crunch is imminent. Austerity measures herald the final throes.  Indications of coming austerity.   Austerity measures are the final last ditch effort, futile or not! Back in the day many of us old-timers went through periods of "hard-times". In retrospect I realize there is no comparison to yesteryear hard times and today's version. Back then, expectations were never very high for the working class, there were no sophisticated systems or conveniences anyway. In fact the difference between being "set" or not was about having treats or not. Si...
