  • Stick with kotlin?

    Jump

  • You can just use the Kotlin compiler, or separate some scratch files in your Android Studio project. There's nothing wrong with learning Kotlin, but learning Android development is using the whole toolbox at a beginner level.

    The Kotlin compiler can be run from the command line. Doing it that way might separate your concerns.

    Have you looked at using Compose? Philip Lackner has some easy tutorials to follow. It takes some of the major development hurdles out of your way.

  • Is Java 21 Keeping Up With Modern Programming Languages

  • Python has a one liner that just runs.

    Is there a one liner that comes standard with Java now? There definitely hasn't been before now.

  • Is there a simple way to do a http web server or socket? I've been looking around, but everything ends up being a page of instructions by the time I get it working.

  • what caused you to get into Linux?

    Jump

  • A local hero was saving women from Windows by installing fresh Linux distros on their dated machines. I wanted this superpower.

  • which distro and why do you prefer it over others?

    Jump

  • In working through the installation I was the least disappointed I've ever been with an OS. The result was something I truly liked. If I nail down every single problem it could be my all time favourite machine.

  • If it's in the Fediverse, you can talk to it and it might talk back. I love that ageless feature!

  • Effects of Stress on Programmers

    Jump

  • I live in my headphones. If anyone chatty is around I put headphones on as an indicator of concentration. (Not that it works)

  • Applicants probably spend more time skimming job openings than Managers spend skimming through CVs

  • Use a form attached to a spreadsheet FTLoG! What a finicky way to dunce your job!

  • What's your movie pitch idea?

    Jump

  • The Bible as a Manga series by non-Christians or Christians with no need to soap it over. Raw and gritty in the way it was originally described. Old Testament level action stories.

    So people strangely know the entire Bible without a hint of religion being demanded. Post-theology, post-religion in a way that people might understand the idea of an egalitarian world coming out of an absolute quagmire.

  • Arch is great, but it needs longer explanations considering the user needs to do a lot more. Sometimes you find them, but other times you find a snarky superuser with zero people skills.

    It's a shame they aren't government standard, so I could take a local course to become a snarky superuser too.

    Most of it involves everyday Linux usages, but some of it is specific to Arch and it breaks so hard. It's not a great thing when you're stupid busy and don't have the headroom to get to the bottom of it. Sometimes all you get is vague theories on how a fix might occur. After that you're playing shell games trying to debug your problems.

    Definitely recommend for pro-Linux people that have a breakable laptop that can go on the backburner.

  • YouTube warns it might make your viewing experience worse if you don't turn off your ad-blocker

    Jump

  • I paid for Lynda.com, and it could have easily taken in more business if YouTube wasn't working so hard for Google ads. There are a lot of paid (and free) services that suffer because of YouTubes ad-money business model.

    Netflix could use the extra business. There are plenty of services failing to thrive while YouTube exists. Peertube would be wide open if YouTube went the way of most of Google's stable of apps. PeerTube is wide open even if YouTube doesn't go away anyway.

    People genuinely hate ads. It's a high degree of enshitification. YouTube could divide into paid content and free content in a simple Freemium model.

    Or, add third tier with ads, which any user can opt out of in the same way contributers can. I'd be happy to click subscribe on an ad free experience with less content available to me.

    Or, add an option for a couple of free tier items per month, week, or day. Like Medium's business model.

    It's not hard to stop sucking!

  • A lot of societies problems would be solved if they taught about forming healthy relationships in school.

    Jump

  • A lot of blind courage is also missing. People used to answer to a lot of blind requests in a way that demanded a leap of faith and an effort to establish their own character. It also had a healthy dose of just wait and see. These days people can weasel out of uninformed situations quite a lot. So, we lean to shallow decision models with fewer good intentions accordingly.
