Excited to launch Gemma 4: the best open models in the world for their respective sizes. Available in 4 sizes that can be fine-tuned for your specific task: 31B dense for great raw performance, 26B MoE for low latency, and effective 2B & 4B for edge device use - happy building!

The Accessibility team at Twitter was one of the best teams I've ever worked with. Just last month @gerardkcohen and @RichardEKnowles were kind enough to speak at a Google-hosted event. They inspired the whole Android community to build more accessible apps.

So, the Accessibility Experience Team at Twitter is no longer. We had so much more to do, but we worked hard! There aren't very many people that have had the opportunity to make such an important global platform like Twitter accessible, but we understood the mission.

I wrote about State Descriptions on Android and a bit about the backwards compatibility support. Thanks @Lojanda and @calren24 for the reviews and support! @ataulm/state-descriptions-on-android-b2029283871f" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@ataulm/state-… #gde #a11y #AndroidDev

@ataulm yeah, i don't think that requested info will be particularly useful in this case. i'll send the bug to the talkback team

@calren24 Do I have to reply with all the requested info? It sounds like a generic request for Android OS bugs, but this is for TalkBack team. I'll do it, but only if needed because it seems like it'll take 30-60 minutes to do all this vs. 30s for someone from the team to read the issue.

@zarahjutz good point about this not being documented in the official docs, we'll work on fixing that 🙂

@katexcellence I think the Fond app is a great indication that you are definitely cut out for this industry :) One time I opened an OA, looked through the questions, and immediately gave up because I was pretty sure I couldn't finish even one question in time. 😭

💪 Multi-process support just leveled up in WorkManager 2.6! Learn how we're adding support for Workers to run in any process and allow workers to be bound to a particular process → goo.gle/3h2Vqje Managing work between processes just got easier 😎

I worked on a bigger piece of accessibility this week and it really showed how little documentation there is around accessibility on Android apart from the basic things.

i didn't know you could record gifs directly from the android emulator... i've been spending like 5 minutes each time recording videos through android studio and converting it to gifs on some random website.....

Back at Cal today to tell incoming freshmen how awesome computer science can be! Which, honestly, I would've never thought I'd be doing considering I got 5/100 on my first CS test.
