... really is a dog compared to eclipse.
Just had to get that off my chest before the evening's alcohol takes effect.
|
|
|
|
|
So is it worse or better?
Pardon, I never heard such an expression (I suppose it means Android Studio is worse than Eclipse, but not sure).

Dog means worse.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Starts downloading Eclipse. Last night I decided it was time at last for mobile development. I'm starting to feel left out. Any books you could recommend?

Oh, wow, thanks. Now I only have this and AngularJS to master. Oh, and plain vanilla JavaScript for a potential new job. Haha, the interviewer asked, "How much non-jQuery JavaScript have you done?"
Luckily I don't have to master Angular for the job, I can fairly get by there, having started only two months ago. Despite the quirks, a truly fantastic framework.

For JavaScript, this[^] is the book to get ahead with.

Indeed. I have been taught proper JavaScript (not the hacked together stuff we see so often), I have borrowed and read about half of it, and in fact, I have just this minute purchased it.

Which Eclipse for Android? I don't see any on their download page that seem to fit.

See http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/installing-adt.html[^], but notice the disclaimer. If you have an Intel i5 or i7 based PC with lots of memory (8Gb or more) you may find Android Studio and the emulator run OK. It is probably worth trying it if you are going to be doing this professionally. I'm just an old geek who likes to learn stuff.

Absolute disaster. I had to use it for a course in university, it was absolutely terrible for anyone who had less than 8GB of RAM. My laptop has only 4GB of RAM. If I accidentally opened the debugger while Chrome was also open, everything would freeze so solidly that the only way out was holding the powerbutton. Death by swapping. It would have been better if it had just killed one of the programs.

I remember my days when I had Intel i5 with 4 GB RAM, this piece of junk would remind me of God and I prayed too much. Because mostly my applications would crash, or I had to forcibly crash them.
Now, I have i7 with 16 GB and everything is just so shiny. But, I still do recommend Eclipse. Everything that Android Studio can offer was offered by Eclipse too, in a very memory-efficieny way.

I have been using both for Android development, and I really prefer Android Studio. I moved to it, from eclipse, when version 1 was released, and I have never looked back.
It's running fine (and fast) here, on a Macbook Pro, i7-something and 16GB ram.
And one of the best things is that you can tell it to use VS Shortcuts (F5 for debug, F10 for jump to next statement, and so on)
I spend about the same time in Android Studio, XCode and VS, for me it means a lot to able to use the same shortcuts in all 3

Preferences->Keymap, in the dialog you can select it in the "Keymaps" dropdown...

Ah, yes. I forgot I'd set that! Thanks!

I've recently scanned some old family picture albums into one image per album page. Is there any (free) tool that can separate each image into the number of pictures per page automatically? I'm looking for some smart software that can detect the picture frames and separate them for me.
Thanks!

The software that came with my Canon printer / scanner can do that and auto-rotate the pictures as well during scanning. It's called Canon My Image Garden. It's available for download if you Google. But I don't know if it will work with other scanners or it it can do it with images that have already been scanned in.
Edit: maybe try this[^]

That works. The keywords also led me to this[^]. Not free, but the trial version was supercool since I had stickers and crap on each album page.
Edit:
I ended up buying this for $19 because of watermarks. Seriously cool and easy to use.
