What Hacker News says?
My experience is with the MTK platform but Apple may be similar; in which case the battery display is done by neither "firmware" nor the full OS, but an intermediate component: http://www.lieberbiber.de/2015/07/05/mediatek-details-little...

HN discussionOne of the big issues with their attempt was ~0 support or documentation for porting existing applications. Everything was focused around building an Ubuntu app from scratch using their custom qtquick-based SDK, but that's not what we needed. edit: for more info: This guy made a beautiful summary of the issues with the dev experience around Ubuntu (Touch): http://www.lieberbiber.de/2017/06/20/my-ubuntu-for-mobile-de…

HN discussionWhile we're worrying about the Y2K38 problem, don'r forget to worry about the Year 2036 Problem [1], as well. Here's a pretty good summary of the upcoming time-related fun [2]. 1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year_2038_problem#Network_Time... 2. http://www.lieberbiber.de/2017/03/14/a-look-at-the-year-2036...

HN discussionNo. But you're sabotaging yourself if you're thinking you're too old. FWIW, I am much older than you and retiring soon and am contemplating a career change. My grandfather went from sales to programming in his early 70s and made a literal fortune[1] contracting. 1. Many millions USD, doing programming on IBM platforms around Y2K. Coincidentally, 2036 [2] and 2038 [3] are coming up. 2. http://www.lieberbiber.de/2017/…
