How Android feature development is changing with Trunk Stable You may have seen me mention something called Trunk Stable before. It's one of the BIGGEST changes to Android in years, but Google hasn't really talked about it much. Here's why it matters👇 androidfaithful.com/android-trunk-…

Being silly with #JetpackCompose Inspired by twitter.com/zack_overflow/…

Rails 8.0: #NOBUILD, #NOPAAS, all-in on SQLite as a production database option with jobs, cache, and cable, new authentication generator, and so much more! Final release is out 🎉 rubyonrails.org/2024/11/7/rail…

Revamped the gratuitous explosions and particle effects to the code editor I'm building And added sound effects! (Sound on!)

@aletorrado @astamatok Totally agree. The same way we see new UI testing tools with AI capabilities (for example robintest.com), we may have AI a11y readers one day.

@astamatok Maybe one day (sooner than later) all of this will be overruled by AI powered screen readers.

You know where Compose/CMP will fall short for iOS? Accessibility. They have: accessibilityValue accessibilityTraits accessibilityHint accessibilityLabel We have: contentDescription (and hardcoded roles). That's it. Anything fancier requires rewriting the whole semantics.

Almost spat out my morning coffee to this one 😂 (it's an image as I saw it on LI, reposted by a friend)

JetBrains is making it possible to build apps for iOS platforms using cloud machines next year! so users who don't have Apple device can do Kotlin Multiplatform as well ...!

So far in 2023, @TheOceanCleanup has been collecting an average of 750 kg of trash for every hour of the year.

I can't stop thinking about this blog post where they replaced Redis with SQLite—and surprisingly, SQLite was faster! What's interesting is that Redis was running locally, SQLite was storing the data on disk. So it was memory (Redis) vs disk (SQLite), but Redis needed to communicate through IPC.

@martinbonnin In memory of Paul today with our association @Velotaftressois 😥

Paul was a biker, Android developer and engaged citizen. His life was taken way too early, we're going to miss him 🤍. If you can, give him and his family a thought this afternoon.

Are you kidding me? Look at this:

launching our open source OCR tool today! try it out with some terrible pdfs and let me know how it goes: getomni.ai/ocr-demo

Updates to MutableStateFlow should be made using the update function; otherwise, conflicts might cause some updates to be lost.

Android 15 is FINALLY rolling out for Pixel devices today! Here's EVERYTHING you need to know about the Android 15 update for Pixel, including what bugs have been fixed and what new features have been added (there's a lot!) Click👇for the details! androidfaithful.com/pixel-android-…

“The calculator requires no internet connection to set up. It won't ask for bluetooth permissions. It doesn't want to know your precise location. You won't be prompted to create an account & you don't need to log in. … You paid for it & now it is yours. It has no other master.“

This is the most underappreciated thing presented in the KotlinConf 2023 Keynote. Most people seem to not comprehend the consequences of what is presented here, but it is a revolution. Let me explain to you why. Thread 👇🧵
