Orrr, I'm reviewing 30 #Android apps submitted by students for their end-of-term project, and Android Studio takes _ages_ to load each project, sync Gradle stuff, build it, load it into the emulator... and that's on an 8-core machine with 16 GB of RAM. 😑

In a rare, serendipitous, moment captured on film (or whatever these pocket computers use now), a pick-up truck of the suburban species, the one never seen in the woods, is behaving like a truly wild pick-up truck of the rural species. Since this species split with the rural variety, encroaching on densely populated areas and consuming vast natural resources while seldom venturing off the smooth and safe streets of suburbia, this behavior is rarely witnessed. Automobilologists had long considered this behavior extinct in this species, and that loss of their never-used rear bed due to evolution would gradually occur. This photo casts doubt on that hypothesis. It remains to be seen whether the behavior will start expressing itself on a community wide scale, but one expert is quoted saying “There are only so many couches to drive around these days."
