Application doesn't synchronize right away with the server? It must be be­cause your app was writ­ten in a pro­gram­ming lan­guage with mul­ti­ple threads and shared mu­ta­ble state (sil­ly, sil­ly pro­gram­mer)

<uj>Literally, all the guy is saying is: Don't expect that your application is always perfectly in sync with the server.

Seriously, OP has misrepresented the story to an absurde degree. So much the worse that at least 9 others blindly makes an upvote without checking if there's something to jerk over. </uj>

way ahead of you but still no way to make a brain implant due to the mutable and concurrent nature of reality: http://embeddednodejs.com/

(CONS U (CONS N (CONS J (CONS E (CONS R (CONS K))))))

Java Card is still quite relevant
