I have create a small and flexible library for doing form flexible validation without writing much (with luck any JS). It's based on idea I had implemented in my past work, and it worked quite neatly IMO. Instead of binding constraints to fields, we instead "bind them to messages", this means constrains are not restricted to "span" single field, as well as allowing more flexibility in placement and styling. Also && of constraints flows naturally from implementation, thus you have more complex constraints just by nesting your html tags.

There is more detailed usage video in intro video description (if you open it on youtube), in short you can minimize keyboard, by double tapping on left side and choosing thick down arrow. I think that should be sufficient, it is quite similar to androids close keyboard thing, but without loosing focus of field.

Rebuilt min api 29 (Android 10), hopefully it gets approved soon by google. Quite an oversight on my part here :) .

33, as I think PlayStore demanded it. I had it working on quite old devices as the project was "sitting on shelf" for long time. I'll look if I can somehow publish "backports" via PlayStore.

It was far less personal than that, I generaly only lurk on HN, but your post one that struck a nerve finaly, after many similar posts here and in /..

Also 9 year old is quite a frac cry from your initial post of "(3y+) machines", 9 year old machine almost guaranteed has absolutely no support in hardware for modern codecs. So no wonder has strong limitations on resolution. Still flash working better than HTML5 players is still suspicious to me, I still believe with correct configuration reverse should be true, as flash is basically just another layer in between screen and bits on the net. Though possibly not applicable in all cases.

All such comments about not working flash player on youtube make me think of some kind of adobe shills maybe? Or PEBCK. Unless you have some super lame vidoe card I do not see how one can not make HTML5 player work. My experience: HTML5 player works really well on youtube, been using it for at least a year (well possibly +- couple months) exclusively. No problems after configuration, machine is quite old q6600 cpu that is 5-6 years old and GF220, which is also quite old now. Full hd video ON Linux (!), Firefox no problems (though possibly just 30fps, not sure if I ever try 60fps). And people complain all over the place about HTML5 youtube on Linux.

I recently tried plan 9 for a bit. Though i understand all the cool things it does and agree with a lot of it. One thing really disappointed and struck me as totally brain dead: there is no such thing as terminal emulator or it seems something like text only mode. In general it seems to me that achieving keyboard only control (that is comfortable to use) is not really possible at least for now.
