Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority A lot of things have been falling by the wayside as I deal with work and life, including my chores, plans to make scheduled appointments, and other general tasks I need to complete in my daily life. I even nearly lost my phone number of 20 years. But as my garden turns to shambles and that cupboard remains unsorted and overflowing, one thing that I don’t want to compromise on is my pets’ health. I have two cats that I absolutely adore, so when I overestimate

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-12-14 20:00:04

Google has tried for years to lure iPhone owners to Pixel phones.

That’s in addition to features like the Android Switch app and wired transfer capabilities to help make it easier to move your data. Now that the Pixel 10 phones are here, though, they might just be the best Android phones for people coming from iPhones. And it doesn’t have anything to do with qui

Turning Claude Code into my best design partner

SQLite (with WAL) doesn't do `fsync` on each commit under default settings

SQLite (with WAL) doesn't do `fsync` on each commit under default settings SQLite has a WAL mode (the default is journal mode), but you’re likely using it if you want higher write throughput.
