Google released version 79 of its Chrome web browser last week, but a bug is causing serious problems because it's seemingly wiping the data some Android apps use. As Android Police reports, the bug impacts apps that rely on Android's WebView, which allows web content to be accessed and displayed from within an app. In order for this to work, some data is stored locally, but with Chrome 79 the location of the storage was changed. This required local data to be migrated to the new location, and that's where the failure lies. The data migration didn't happen properly, so apps are left unable to function properly. The good news is the data isn't being deleted as it still exists in the old location. Google now needs to figure out the best way to movie it, and to do so quickly, but until a fix is in place the rollout of Chrome 79 has been paused.

Hello, my name is John Cherwa and welcome back to our horse racing newsletter as we finish up the final newsletter of this racing year. And, I didn’t miss a one.Well, this does it for this year, and by year I mean racing year. Sure, we’ll be back on Dec. 26 of this year but I always look at that like next racing year.

Henri Matisse: The Cut-Outs review – ‘the lesson of a lifetime’
If an art show can be evoked in terms of seasons, then Henri Matisse: The Cut-Outs at Tate Modern is high summer from first to last. All the joie de vivre of Matisse's 60-year career is condensed in the glowing heat and beauty of these late works of art, so exuberant, generous and intense, proliferating from one gallery to the next like some super-abundant garden. Swallows dive, fish fly, blossoms burst open, figures dance, the eye of the sky sends its light into these radiant combinations of high-chrome shapes against burning white ground, and the spirit rises with each new vision. That they were conjured with nothing more than paper, pins and scissors seems as extraordinary as the reduced circumstances in which they were made – by an old man unable to stand without support, often confined to a wheelchair and eventually to the penultimate resting place of bed. Matisse was in a wheelchair by 1941, following radical colon surgery at the age of 71. He could no longer work with an … [Read more...] about Henri Matisse: The Cut-Outs review – ‘the lesson of a lifetime’
