I made it 5 weeks in my new role before asking "hey how about we open source...."

Stop working for evil people

@Sh41 it's been a good twenty years since I played, any recs on what to watch? I used to read the live tourney reports constantly

Working on AI tooling is fun and I don't care what you think

@Sh41 I haven't logged anything in years.

@Sh41 same! I'm strangely ok with it

My toddler: "print me a walking bridge"
Me: "what's that"
Toddler: "you know what it is, it's a bridge with legs"

@iangclifton I just got an a1 to print brio train parts for my kiddo. What are you making?

@ryan @svenjacobs ill be here as long as anyone else is ❤️

I was reflecting on my feelings about unfinished projects, and realized that they're actually okay. I wrote about it here!

Who spends 70 a month on cookies and crackers?

Another year around the sun for android dev social. Thank you all for the support ❤️

@zachklipp one more problem I'd how hard it is to make ids. Do I need to encode parent or index for uniqueness? I think of it backwards, why can't I just flip a switch and have android generate an ID for each view on screen

@zachklipp yup which then tooling doesn't work that expected old ids. You can then add more flags to treat as ids, poorly constructed non unique ids that don't work with many tools. I dunno would be nice to just go back to identifiers

@zachklipp testtags?

"You know what would be cool? If we remove ids from views" -someone working on compose that doesn't write tests

Kamala is the only choice

@vinaygaba why would 4x the work be 1000 times slower?

Would running the giant query 4 times be faster than running smaller ones 4 times? I'm missing where the exponential slowness comes from.

As of today, I'm available for any consulting/freelance projects you have, if they are fun!

@benlikestocode welcome old friend ❤️❤️❤️
