Episode 75: Project Treble - for the HAL of it

Iliyan, Romain, Chet, and a complete lack of Tor.

In this episode, Chet and Romain (no Tor in sight. Anyone seen Tor? He was on the calendar appointment, totally expected him to show) talked with Iliyan Malchev from the Treble project. Treble was introduced in May of this year as an important step toward faster and more frequent release updates on devices.

Episode 74: Graphics

In this episode, Chet and Tor Romain talk with Mathias Agopian, who has worked on (or been the entirety of) the Android graphics team since before Android 1.0. We talk about SurfaceFlinger, PixelFlinger, tearing, buffering, optimizations, and other fun low-level graphics and performance details.
