This is great. BASIC was my first programming language on a TI-92 calculator. It provides an invitation to new would-be programmers to explore writing code. Having it available on Android just opens the door for more people to try.

Android had a hidden feature in certain iterations of Android 4, called "App Ops," that would let you do this but it never made it to prime time. Though Cyanogenmod does leverage it for their "Privacy Guard" feature.

I don't know if you've ever ridden a bike, but they don't exactly stop on a dime. The point is these people don't notice you and will walk right in front of you within a few feet when the light is green for you.

On the flip side, I've nearly hit two pedestrians on Market Street who were not paying attention, and jay-walking right in front of me while it was my right of way (traffic light was green). As a cyclist, you have to be aggressive, or
