Oh man they've added 5000 API calls. That's 1000 more than iOS 8. Guess Google wins.



Love the downvotes, but I was just trying to show how silly numbers like that are. What does '5000 API calls' even mean?


Maybe they've added Getters and Setters for every private variable, via a macro (to save typing)? That will certainly mean many more API functions to call.

Or are they counting how many times they make calls to a part of the API? Like calling a function in a for loop or something?

Either way, I'll applaud unnecessarily.

EDIT: Thanks for the downvotes! Here's to humour on HN!


Google already won so no big deal.
