Sololearn challenges people on SoloLearn

But it's possible to win.

There has been discussions in the q&a section about whether the sololearn user is a bot or a human. That's because many people get challenges from sololearn. But the question is, why is sololearn in level 18? And why does sololearn loose almost every time? One of the theories is that there is a bot that challenges random users, and chooses random answer. But why does sololearn have that much xp? Are they hackers?

Canvas tutorials by JavaScripter

If you always wanted to learn canvas programming, this is for you. I really hope that JavaScripter makes more parts. (JavaScripter, if you read this, make more canvas tutorials) The tutorials are easy to understand, they have nice styling, they have examples (highlighted with highlight.js), and they are beginner friendly. You learn how to draw shapes, animate them, collision detection, and much more.

Do you have a slow android phone? Try this!

Many people have old and slow phones. But is there a way to speed them up?

Speeding up old phones

Warning: Only for android phones

Warning: If your phone is really old and doesn't work, this may not help.

Many people have experienced it. You need to do something on your phone, but it's soooooo s l o w . But what if there was a way to speed it up?

It's possible to speed up your phone by making the animations faster. This reduces the time it takes to launch an app, go home, and many more things that take time. But how do you do that?
If you say "Thats not possible. I've never seen it in settings." you're right. You've never seen it in settings, because it's ~~hidden.~~ It's hidden in a hidden part of the settings called "Developer options". Sounds good! Options for us developers!
Stop joking. It's serious. You can destroy your phone with developer options. But you can also speed up or slow down your animations, force all apps to work in split-screen mode, and much more.
It's a whole new world!

So, unlocking developer options is different on each phone. On some phones (like my samsung galaxy s9+) you have to go to settings>about phone>software information and tap on build number until the message (toast) "You are now a developer" shows up. On other phones you have to go to settings>system>about phone and then tap on build number. The location of build number also depends on your android version. I wish you good luck with finding it!

If you have unlocked developer options, you have to find them. When you find "Developer options" , tap on it and scroll down until you see "Window animation scale", "Transition animation scale" and "Animation duration scale". By default, all of them are set to 1x. To speed up the animations, set everything to 0.5x. You can also completely turn off all animations. If you want to prank your friends, you can slow down your animations by setting them to 1.5x, 2x, 5x, or 10x.
That was all! If you want to reset and turn off developer options, use the big switch in the top. Enjoy your faster (or slower) phone!
