The title is misleading as BMW will introduce Android Automotive as a second platform - not fully switch to it.
“The company plans to develop their BMW Operating System 8 infotainment software using Android Automotive for some vehicle models beginning in March 2023 but also maintain the current Linux-based version for others.“ https://www.theverge.com/2022/6/30/23189642/bmw-android-auto...
It starts with the simple ability to convert a blank page into something interactive, useful and helpful for somebody else.
And it continues with the possibility to apply knowledge and experience. Most important to see things from a higher level, realizing and thinking in systems and applying these methodical thinking on a daily basis - and passing the knowledge on to somebody else.
I've been using the following system for a few years now and I am able to handle a high volume of emails with it.
1. Create categories: .Urgent, .When Possible, PJ Your Project, PJ ...
2. Create two folders: .Action [Set "View" to "Date (Conversations)], .Archive [Set "View" to "Categories"]
3. Create Quick Steps: "Action - Urgent" (Actions: Clear Categories, Move to .Action, Categorize message: .Urgent, Mark as Read, Shortcut: CTRL+Shift+1), "Action - When possible" (Actions: Clear Categories, Move to .Action, Categorize message: .When possible, Mark as Read, Shortcut: CTRL+Shift+2), "Archive" (Actions: Move to .Archive, Categorize message [Leave the category empty to be prompted for the category], Mark as Read, Shortcut: CTRL+Shift+3)
4. Schedule email sessions in your calendar (max. 2 times/day for a fixed time period): For each email: Delete or use the shortcuts to assign them as "Urgent", "When possible" or "Archive" them. Inbox should be empty afterwards. Do not take a look into the inbox outside of scheduled inbox sessions.
5. Work on the emails: Work on the emails in the ".Urgent" folder first. If you got time, work on the emails in the ".Action" folder next.
The German BSI (Federal Office for Security in the Information Technology) send out a recommendation to disable synchronisation or delete the app until Apples fix (currently in beta) is released.

I can recommend Cushion (https://cushionapp.com). For me it's a great suite of tools in one intuitive and easy to use platform.

You're right. In Germany you'll need to do the math with 1.40 at least.
You _can_ create an account to sync your key across devices but you don't need to (I didn't).

You can export your data but in their notification when the backup is ready to download, they'll say "You can't import it back into Basecamp, it's just for reference."
Despide the fact that everybody got a strange feeling when reading the name "Facebook" in combination with WhatsApp:
Congrats to the team of WhatsApp to build such a successful product in five years with a team of 32 engineers (~ $500 million/engineer). Reminder: They nearly replaced the SMS service worldwide.
Let's hope that the words by Mark Zuckerberg will be the truth and WhatsApp will be kept as an independent product in the future.
18) Figure out when you're most productive during the day.
Morning person? Evening person? Put small and easy tasks in the non-productive time of the day (or break out, see point 4) and get the big ones in your best time of the day.
Thanks for the correction - updated my answer.
But when you're honest: How many users are willing to use the device without connection to the Google ecosystem? It's the same on iOS. My point of criticism remains the same: The data you're (then) generating in the Google ecosystem has a higher value than in any other ecosystem (Apple, Microsoft, etc.) and more likely makes you a product (and not free).
Android isn't the problem, Google is.
The problem begins with the installation of every android device when you're asked to register a Google account (same process with the Apple ID in iOS). [Sure enough you can use the phone without a Google account or an iOS account but your excluded from each ecosystem]. For me - as an iOS user - I got a much worse feeling using the Google ecosystem than Apple ones because of one simple fact:
Google can get much more value out of the data you're generating than Apple does using it to later 'enhance' your experience for all other Google services (Google Search, Gmail, etc.) showing ads. Knowing everything about my daily behavior ('When is the user active? Was does he do? Where is he? ...') will lead to a perfect profile to sell the right ads.
At Apple you at least got the change to opt-out even using the ecosystem of the unique ad identifier. Correct me if this is possible using a Google account on android as well.
It seems that every day new reports are published talking about victims that are denied to enter the USA because of the wildest reasons - even with legal papers.
But it's not only the arbitrariness that every report seems to claim. It's more than that the behaviour of the officials towards citizens of other countrys and nations.
"America knows everything" - and you're not welcome any more.
The link refers to a given interview (http://j.mp/138mDHs) with Till Filda (Owner of Ad Block Plus) who gives the information that user can opt-out of the build in "Acceptable Ads program".
In his words the reason for an acceptable ads program seems to be showing acceptable ads (non flashing, blinking, annoying, ...) to the user which seems legit.
Can't understand the 'Mafia' term in this. It's a free product this is their business model. You as a user choose if you accept (or opt-out) this or leave the product behind.
