May she have used it as toilet paper

I use Rectangle whenever I need to do some tiling go decent effect.

This was the method people used to get Balatro running on mobile before. Extract the Lua code and then package it using LÖVE for Android/iOS

ffmpeg is wild as far as tools go

This seems like it could be a fun project. Mind making a post about the build sometime?

Jellyfin is better anyway

I wish this were true, but as a multi-year Plex-to-Jellyfin migrant, I have to point out that Plex was the better software.

I still choose to run Jellyfin for other reasons (don’t like the commercial path Plex is taking, among others), but I still do miss the better reliability and larger feature set in the Plex software stack.

-9 means it’s serious

Downplaying the importance of UX is one of the reasons the year of the Linux desktop still has not arrived.

Ed is the standard text editor.

On the system I administrate, vi is symlinked to ed

Obfuscation only makes the effort of decompilation take a bit longer - fundamentally, they are going to be executing the bytecode on your device, and that cannot be hidden from you.

I’m speaking from experience here - I’ve decompiled multiple APKs before, all containing bytecode that has been obfuscated by ProGuard. It’s a bit harder than reading source code, but with some practice it’s always possible to figure out what’s going on in the end.

Feel free to decompile them - it’s all there in the APK, you don’t have to live in doubt.

I live in the most sustainable city on the planet, Gothenburg, Sweden.

This sounds like Glenn-propaganda if I ever heard it!

On a more serious note, where did Göteborg get this award?

I would say thats mostly because of Company policies since devs would use the same tools you would use in a linux box.

Not at all the case for me and for other devs where I work. We can freely choose to run Linux, and some people do (mostly backend devs). M-series MacBooks dominate though because of the simple fact that they are just so much more powerful than the alternatives.

Since you’re doing Android development, you’re probably saving some very significant amount of compile time, if you’re running an M-series MacBook Pro.

When the M1 was released there were actually stories of companies sidestepping normal device replacement policies and upgrading all mobile devs to M1s because of the time savings involved, which should tell you something about the power in these machines.

Since the release of the M-series, the MacBook Pros have gone from being primarily a fashion item to becoming primarily a tool for work - someone made the apt comparison that the previous MacBooks were trying to be Lamborghinis - pretty to look at at the expense of functionality, while the M-series are tractors - tools to accomplish jobs.

Given that they own all of the source code (CLA is required to contribute), they can just stop offering the code under GPL, unless they happen to have any GPL dependencies not under their control, in which case this would not be viable.

General purpose: Kebab case

But really, follow the conventions of what you’re working on. For example, I’d use pascal case when working on a Java/Kotlin project, and snake case when working on a Python project.

I don’t know if it matches your desire for easy install of small disk space, but it might make up for it in other arenas - Ruby is my new-found love when making simple scripts. Being able to mostly emulate the shell integration that bash has by just using backticks to call a shell command is the killer feature in my book.

While Rust would probably have been a good choice for implementing a new browser, I don’t think Swift deserves the criticism it’s getting in this thread:

• Swift was created by the same person who created Rust, and has many of the same nice traits
• Swift is a modern language that is easy for plenty of developers to pick up; I’d place it in the same family as Rust and Kotlin
• Swift grants access to a large pool of native iOS/Mac developers

It’s highly unlikely that this app even comes up on the radar insofar as competing with Google Maps.

The answer is probably more mundane - an automated system made an incorrect call. It keeps happening when it comes to these Play Store app reviews.
