I suppose it would be silly to ask if your company uses an agile dev process?

Of course they do. You've never heard of a 5 month sprint?

I think the technical term for that is "stroll".

I love stuff like this. Wish I could give you +55. 
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

That must have taken some serious work to make - very, very impressive!
Wish I could make things like that...

Did you see clarksons extreme machines when he had the guy who made the mini ferari on, and the whole thing worked, the engine, gearbox, the lot. amazing bit of work.

No: not seen that. I've worked on full size engines but never anything that intricate. The skill and devotion required are remarkable.

I had a garage for a few years back in the 80s. Used to do a lot of work on cars. Got fed up with it in the end, its cold, dirty work. yuck!

What an amazing piece of workmanship. When he put those coins on top of the intakes that really impressed me.

Very cool, but I wouldn't call it an engine. It doesn't produce power, it runs on compressed air.
None-the-less, it is a beautiful piece of craftsmanship.

It has taken me all afternoon to try and downgrade my tablet, and the android is still on his back with his belly open....but it looks like it's actually sending things...and Android is booting!
Everything has been difficult: the cabling (short fast-charge cable that comes with Nexus 7 pulls too much power from USB, and disables my PC keyboard, longer slow charge cable doesn't get recognised as Nexus device, probably because Lollipop is in "slow motion mode" and not talkine to windows), download of 4.4 from Google is in a TGZ file, which contains a TAR file, which has a ZIP and an BAT file, but not the EXE or DLL files you need to use them, ...

This is the type of stuff that I try to remember when I build software.
There are so many stupid things about the way computers work and end users don't care about the difficulties of development. They just want it to work.
I am an end user. I just want it to work.
This is yet another reason why I loathe, iTunes-the-Virus.

It's booted as V4.4
It's fast and smooth as a very fast, smooth thing.
Of course, it has no apps on it at all (other than the Google standard stuff) but I uploaded screen captures of the apps list pages to Dropbox before I killed Lollipop just in case!
And now - load all the apps back... sigh ...

That's one of the joys of the Play Store.
You can just open it in a browser on your PC, and go through the list of apps that were installed on the device previously, re-installing them from there.

heh.
I thought I'd mention it as a general comment, rather than a "did you know", to avoid any potential embarrassment.
Kinda failed there, didn't I?

I've used iTunes for media management and hardware back-up / syncing for over 6 years and it's always worked just fine.
Maybe you're using it wrong? 
Contrary to popular belief, nobody owes you anything.

But the 428 hours a year you spend waiting for itunes to do anything far outweighs any wrongly-perceived efficiency gain.

Except it runs quite snappy on my 6 year old iMac and equally fast on my 3 year old Dell.
