Gen Z doesn't Understand Filesystems. It's not their fault. Apple's early abstraction of mobile data storage has caused...confusion to say the least. But what does the *real* iOS filesystem look like? As a researcher myself; it's kind of insanely complicated:

What the fuck is Google doing? This doesn't make anyone safer and kills small apps. Not to mention I'm sure the devs of NewPipe or Revanced will be really happy to give Google a copy of their ID. Very safe. www.androidauthority.com/android-deve...

Today Bitbucket wrongly displayed the contents of a stacked pull request and silently swallowed build reports API calls without warning It did work perfectly when it comes to autocorrecting "bitbucket" into "Bitbucket" in a comment, so I'm glad I could at least stay corporate in my comments

Damn, our iOS team will have something to fight back with next time I threaten to bring KMP in their project 😂 All kidding aside, good to see that happening. At the very least, it would be an amazing replacement for the NDK parts. Although... CMake or SPM, not sure which poison I prefer

I'm going to do terrible things with compileOnly, context receivers and runCatchings, and noone can stop me.

Fun. Journeys in android studio try to load some version information from a version.properties file embedded in the plugin jar. ktlint is in the class path before and brings one too, making the journeys plugin fail. @tornorbye.bsky.social does Google take issue reports for journeys?

People are posting about Pocket going down, and while it's an incredibly funny example of Mozilla letting people down again, the best way to be isolated from it is to save things locally. Grab @obsidian.md , grab the web clipper extension, download all attachments, your saves will never disappear.

Turn on every single warning possible using StrictMode, at least in penaltyLog. Be warned early of what silly things you might be doing on accident.

Lovely demo, bold to do it live @tornorbye.bsky.social :P . Have you been dogfooding the agent on things like the androidx repo, with logic that isn't a LinkedList that Gemini ingested a billion times during training, or dealing with Gradle behavior only present in docs ?

Turns out, Formula E is pretty damn entertaining in person. Also, Buemi is an absolute mad man with those dives.

Le grand retour du septennat.

I had so many things I expected to see from AI companies this year, so many more ways to endlessly generate slop. I didn't fucking expect to see @mozilla.org say "spam OpenStreetMap with automatic and unverified crap". What the fuck. No warnings to OSM either. blog.mozilla.ai/map-features...

The RX 9070 is seriously an insanely good purchase. Rock solid performance, excellent OC potential and undervolting it makes it a perfect, cool and quiet 1080/1440p card. now, AMD, can you hire me to rewrite Catalyst and Adrenalin because what the FUCK is that performance how is it lagging

Ah yes, exactly what Mozilla needed... 📝 More board members. Sad to see it slowly picked apart by vultures and eroded. It's been a good run.

Unfortunately, the person that pays me cares a great deal about how fast said product comes out, how easy it is for co-workers to work on it and how many people they can hire that don't need training. "Fast product" also means that many options are out. This heavily influences many, many choices.

That's a bridge too far isn't it?

Hey, @tornorbye.bsky.social (or, well, anyone that's working on #AndroidStudio), is there any plan on allowing users to write custom inspection plugins in AS ? I currently have a bunch of Flipper plugins, and that's a dependency I'd love to drop. Or even any documentation on how they work currently?

Champagne.

Do you know what "Time to take action" (or, accessibility timeout) is, and how to support it in your Android app? In this blog post, I'll explain what it is and how you can make your users' lives better by respecting this accessibility setting's value: eevis.codes/blog/2024-12...

I have missed how good constraint-less programming feels. Proper architecture ? Presentable code ? Maintainability ? just slap github.com/Quillraven/F... on a project and make fun shit who cares as long as it renders
