Q: Android Parse query from local data store too slow In my main activity, I'm filling a recyclerview with an array of strings; however, I'm getting those strings from my parse database.
I now know that when you query for information the method is asynchronous meaning it runs in the background waiting to receive a response from the database while your code continues to run. I ran into the problem that it took too long to fill an array with the strings and the recycerview was already filled (with null values because the array hadn't been filled yet)
So I decided save to the data locally with parse and use the database to back up the information. My problem is still that this too is way too slow to fill my adapter for the recyclerview. I even made sure that it wasn't querying the database and turned of my data and internet connection to the phone I was testing it on. It was the same story.
Does anyone know an optimized way to retrieve data so it's fast enough to fill the recyclerview because right now it takes like a full 3 seconds to get the strings. I do not want to pause my program for 3 seconds just to wait for parse to do it's thing.
Here is how I save the data.
// get current user
ParseObject studentClasses = new ParseObject("StudentClasses");

// register their periods into database
studentClasses.put("student_id", ParseUser.getCurrentUser());
studentClasses.put("first_period", ClassSelected_Period[PERIOD1]);
studentClasses.put("second_period", ClassSelected_Period[PERIOD2]);
studentClasses.put("third_period", ClassSelected_Period[PERIOD3]);
studentClasses.put("fourth_period", ClassSelected_Period[PERIOD4]);
studentClasses.put("fifth_period", ClassSelected_Period[PERIOD5]);
studentClasses.put("sixth_period", ClassSelected_Period[PERIOD6]);
studentClasses.put("seventh_period", ClassSelected_Period[PERIOD7]);

// save the information locally and in database
studentClasses.pinInBackground();

// navigate user home
navigateToHome();

Here is how I retrieve the data in my main activity
// query database for user's classes
ParseQuery<ParseObject> query = ParseQuery.getQuery("StudentClasses");
query.fromLocalDatastore().whereEqualTo("student_id", ParseUser.getCurrentUser());

// find it, first looking at local data store then going to database
query.getFirstInBackground(new GetCallback<ParseObject>()
{
    @Override
    public void done (ParseObject parseObject, ParseException e)
    {
        if (e == null)
        {
            // retrieved the object
            userClasses[PERIOD1] = parseObject.getString("first_period");
            userClasses[PERIOD2] = parseObject.getString("second_period");
            userClasses[PERIOD3] = parseObject.getString("third_period");
            userClasses[PERIOD4] = parseObject.getString("fourth_period");
            userClasses[PERIOD5] = parseObject.getString("fifth_period");
            userClasses[PERIOD6] = parseObject.getString("sixth_period");
            userClasses[PERIOD7] = parseObject.getString("seventh_period");

            // DEBUG: shows how long it takes for method to return
            Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"during call = " + userClasses[PERIOD1], Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
        }
        else
        {
            // DEBUG: shows if exception happened
            Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"Exception Thrown" ,Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        }
    }
});

// DEBUG: shows how long it takes for code to reach this point
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"after call = " + userClasses[PERIOD1], Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

The toast "after call =" shows pretty much as soon as the screen appears and it says "after call = null"
the toast "during call =" shows up about 3 seconds later and say "during call = English" (which is what it should say)
Even if it's not using parse to save it, I'll be fine with it. I can always use parse to just back it up or perhaps I'm just doing something wrong and there's a way better way.

Any optimizations or fixes to any parts are appreciated thanks!

A: I found a solution. It may not be the most elegant or efficient but at least it works.
Instead of using parse as the main source to save the data, use it as a backup to check the data you have stored internally. So save the data normally with parse then save your data type using shared preferences which saves the data internally.
In my case it looks like this
PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(RegisterActivity.this).edit().putString("my_title", myCustomString).commit();

Where RegisterActivity.this is your context, my_title is the unique id for your string, and myCustomString is the custom string you want to save
All you have to do is use that one line to save the variable you want.
When you want to retrieve the data just put this line
myNewString = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(MainActivity.this).getString("my_title", "defaultStringIfNothingFound");

Where myNewString is the new string that you save it into, MainActivity.this is the context, my_title is still the title, and defaultString.... well that one's obvious.
You can still maintain the database checking too. Just set the the saving shared preference line equal to whatever your parseObject.getString("StringName"); equals
Now you have a quick, local cache to save and retrieve data and a redundant database to regularly update the local cache

The revolution within the revolution: How mobile devices and social media changed Tunisia
Before we get all Twittered about the events in Tunisia, let's put the Jasmine Revolution in perspective. After decades of repression and economic turmoil, a citizen's act of defiance sparked a people's uprising that ousted an oppressive regime. Citizens demonstrated. Citizens were killed. Citizens changed their government. Let's not trivialize them as gadgets or hashtags.
What is revealing about this revolution is the way in which citizens discovered it, how they informed one another, and how they mobilized around it. They used their mobile phones, now ubiquitous in North Africa, to communicate via text messaging and Twitter.
For many Tunisians, their phones are their Internet. Theirs is a story about the democratization of media, a social revolution that wields the power to change lives as well as governments. It has authoritative regimes throughout the world very worried. Some are using the very technologies available to the masses — friends lists, phone logs, geo-location apps, facial recognition — to locate and identify dissidents, spy on them, punish them. Repression 2.0. Technology is making democracy more dangerous, not less.
We are just beginning to understand the implications of the social revolution that is redistributing power throughout society. Spread person-to-person by mobile devices, unrest mounted amid Tunisia's newly connected generation outside the glare of network TV cameras.
The revolution was not televised but tweeted. It occurred with a suddenness that exposed the shortcomings of traditional media throughout the world. What simmered in Tunisia for a month went largely unreported by a diminished and increasing parochial mainstream media. Only Al Jazeera, the Arab-language news network based in Qatar, seemed to recognize the growing tempest in Tunisia and the implications for the rest of the Arab world. By reading the blogs, following the tweets and using its mobile phones, Al Jazeera found signs of political ferment both in Africa and in the Islamic world fed by economic distress, political repression, and young people with the tools — including mobile phones and Internet — to make changes.
"I am certain its (the revolution's) success is entirely correlated to the ubiquity of the mobile phone and the Internet," blogged Aly-Khan Saatchu, an investments banker based in Nairobi. "I recall a friend and an ambassador telling me, "Aly-Khan, the revolution is coming."
Tunisian dissident Bechir Blagui, who runs the website Free Tunisia, told a Huffington Post blogger that cellphones and social media were crucial to information flow that helped protestors gather and plan their demonstrations.
"They called it the jasmine revolt, Sidi Bouzid (the site of the first clashes) revolt, Tunisia revolt .. but there is only one name that does justice to what is happening in the homeland: Social media revolution."
In the U.S, blogs and Twitter provided the best way to watch events unfold. On the ground in Tunisia, bloggers from Global Voices Online began posting daily developments in December after an unemployed Tunisian set himself on fire to protest joblessness, sparking the populist uprising against the government. On NPR's news blog, social media master Andy Carvin curated posts, tweets, video and other media. The Twitter hashtag #sidibouzid served as a universal link to the latest information from social media correspondents around the world.
As a realtime source of news and information, the significance of Twitter in Tunisia's citizens' revolt is itself an issue of confusion and debate, the fodder for blogs and Tweets among media theorists and foreign policy wonks.
With each leap in communications technology the medium plays a more significant role as an instrument of the people, whether for a personal connection or a political action. More than just a means for knowing and reporting, our media connect behavior with action. And that is a revolution within a revolution.

« Disconnection, neglect, and suicide: Scientology, it's even worse than you think
What to get the Scientologist who has everything: It's the Scientology Xmas Catalog! »
Leah Remini told you about Scientology's 'Fair Game' — and here's the worst example of it
[Leah Remini, Paulette Cooper, and Paul Noble]
In this week's episode of Leah Remini: Scientology and the Aftermath, we learned about former Scientology spokesman Mike Rinder and the "Fair Game" he's experienced since leaving the church in 2007.
For Rinder, it's meant almost constant surveillance and harassment since he first began in 2009 to speak publicly about Scientology's current leader, David Miscavige. Examples shown in the episode included being followed and accosted by private eyes, keeping watch on him with the use of a remote camera in a bird feeder, and even paying sanitation workers for Rinder's garbage. (In Tuesday's post, we listed other examples of Fair Game that Rinder has had to endure that weren't mentioned in the show.)
Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard first announced a "Fair Game Law" in 1965 at a time when he was writing policies to crack down on splinter groups that infuriated him. In 1967, Hubbard gave his most notorious definition of what he meant by the policy, writing that Scientology's enemies may be "deprived of property or injured by any means by any Scientologist without any discipline of the Scientologist. May be tricked, sued or lied to or destroyed."
Scientology denies that it engages in Fair Game today. It says that the Fair Game policy was canceled by Hubbard in 1968. But as Rinder and Remini discussed on this week's show, in his 1968 order Hubbard actually said, "The practice of declaring people FAIR GAME will cease. FAIR GAME may not appear on any Ethics Order. It causes bad public relations. This does not cancel any policy on the treatment or handling of an SP." (When the church decides someone is an enemy, it labels them a "suppressive person" or SP.)
In other words, the policy of ruining SPs utterly and destroying people would continue, so long as the words "Fair Game" weren't involved.
As Remini and Rinder discussed his harassment, we were watching Twitter as viewers expressed shock at the idea of a church hiring goons to do the things that Rinder managed to film.
And our first thought was, oh, they haven't seen anything.
Although Mike Rinder and other former church officials have been through hellacious harassment in recent years, the most egregious example of Scientology trying to destroy someone over decades of harassment is still what the church did to a journalist from New York by the name of Paulette Cooper.
It's such an outrageous example of what Scientology can do when it is determined to destroy someone, we wrote a whole book about it!
In The Unbreakable Miss Lovely, we described how Paulette survived the Holocaust as a toddler, was adopted by a New York couple, and then became a magazine writer out of college. When she realized that a couple of her friends had taken courses in Scientology (and acted bizarrely as a result), she decided to look into it for a possible magazine story. That 1969 magazine investigation turned into a 1971 book, The Scandal of Scientology.
And from the day her magazine story came out, Paulette became the target for an elaborate series of operations by Scientology's "Guardian's Office" that stretched well into the 1980s. At one point, in 1973, the Guardian's Office had framed her for the crime of sending bomb threats to the New York Scientology org (even lifting her fingerprints to put on a piece of stationery), and she had been indicted and was facing 15 years in federal prison. She came close to killing herself that summer, but she managed to avoid prosecution and was eventually exonerated by the FBI. But Scientology's complex schemes against her continued, as well as 19 lawsuits the church filed against her. We even found that a reporter on Scientology's payroll was keeping tabs on her until at least 2010!
Paulette's phone was tapped, her friends and family were targeted, and Scientology even sent in spies to live in her apartment building and to befriend her. And, incredibly, from May to September 1973, she even took in a roommate, not realizing that he was a Guardian's Office operative. The total amount of resources that L. Ron Hubbard threw at this single woman in Manhattan over several decades is truly staggering.
But she survived it all, and she thrived. And she still keeps an active interest in what's happening in the world of Scientology and supports the people who continue to investigate it.
And so we asked her for some thoughts on this week's episode of Leah Remini's show, titled "Fair Game."
Here's what she sent us.
I'm glad to see that "Fair Game" is being exposed. Maybe in the 1970's if people believed that this existed, Scientology couldn't have done what they did to me.
They're still using a lot of the same techniques against Mike they used against me: Smears, photography, distorting the truth to discredit their enemies, having "friends" spy on SPs. But since Scientology faces so much more scrutiny now, and risks so much more exposure because of the Internet, they're trying to stay within the law. With me they didn't even try.
For example, the evidence of an illegal phone tap in my basement is not the same as a legal camera in a bird feeder down the street. And especially when they sent themselves bomb threats and blamed me, which was a double crime: Their sending it (even to themselves, it went through the mail) and then falsely accusing me.
Mike is so great to withstand being enemy number 1. Unfortunately for me I was number 1, 2, 3, etc., because no one else would really stand up to them in America.
It's great that today an SP has a support system. Mike has so many people behind him who know that what he is saying is true and that these things really are being done to a Fair Game victim. In the 1970's, without the Internet, when I said these sorts of things were being done to me, no one believed me.
They're trying to break him emotionally and ruin his reputation, but they also tried to break me financially with 19 lawsuits — and it almost worked. Without the worry of litigation it's easier to speak out.
I hope Mike's Fair Game doesn't last as long as mine — 15 years! But like Mike, I didn't back down because I knew how bad Scientology was and that someone had to speak out and help those who were suffering.
I am glad to see him and Leah and Tony fighting to expose them, and continuing to do what I started. I am also pleased that there are now so many supporting the SPs by believing them and helping to spread their stories.
Thank you, Paulette. And a hearty wave to Paul Noble, who celebrated a birthday this week.
The guy behind Scientology's Tennessee hellhole
Longtime readers will remember the horror stories we've told about two women who were sent to a Scientology-style rehab facility in rural Tennessee, Life Center for a New Tomorrow, that is run by a man named Marc Vallieres. A tipster pointed out that he'd found this interview of Vallieres spouting all sorts of Hubbardite psychobabble. While you listen to him, keep in mind the accounts we heard about Barbara Cordova Oliver and the disturbing story of "Candace," and how they were warehoused by Scientology at this man's facility.

Exciting New Research in Autism Launched Today
A new research study investigating mental health in people with autism is being launched today, 25th October 2017. The study is a collaboration between leading investigators at the Cerebra Centre for Neurodevelopmental Disorders at the University of Birmingham, Aston University, and leading UK autism research charity, Autistica. Mental health problems affect 79% of people with autism, and managing these difficulties is a top priority for people living with autism. However, these dififculties, particularly for those who also have an intellectual disability, have been largely overlooked due to lack of research and support. For more information about this major new UK study click here. Researchers aim to recruit 5,000 autistic people, their families and carers to the 'Discover' research network by the end of 2017. To find out more and get involved please visit: https://www.autistica.org.uk/get-involved/take-part-in-research
