A SimpleSectionedRecyclerViewAdapter: use this class to realize a simple sectioned `RecyclerView.Adapter`.

You can use this class to realize a simple sectioned RecyclerView.Adapter without changing your code.

The RecyclerView should use a LinearLayoutManager. You can use this code also with the TwoWayView with the ListLayoutManager (https://github.com/lucasr/twoway-view)

This is a porting of the class SimpleSectionedListAdapter provided by Google

if _, err := os.Stat("/path/to/whatever"); !os.IsNotExist(err) {
// path/to/whatever exists

An open question (rant) about node.js

Most developers would agree that, all other things being equal, a synchronous program is easier to work with than an asynchronous one. The logic for this is pretty clear: one flow of execution is easier for the human mind to simulate than n concurrent flows.

After doing two small projects in node.js (one of which is here -- ready for the blinding flurry of criticism), there's one question that I can't shake: if asynchronicity is an optimization (that is, a complexity introduced for the sake of performance), why would people, a priori, turn to a framework that imposes it for everything? If asynchronous code is harder to reason about, why would we elect to live in a world where it is the default?

It could be argued pretty well that the browser is a domain that inherently lends itself to an async model, but I'd be very curious to hear a defense of "async-first" thinking for problems that are typically solved on the server-side. When working with node, I've noticed

Notes from Carl Hewitt on the Actor Model

Carl Hewitt on Actors

Actor - Fundamental unit of computation, a computation model - not just a form of concurrency

An Actor has three essential elements:

  • 1 - Processing - you have to get something done
  • 2 - Storage - you have to be able to remember things
  • 3 - Communication
