Breaking down stupidly tall #Minecraft ore towers is still great relaxation :cuteBlob:

@riggaroo @joshliebe Congrats!!

@mark looks suspiciously like a butt-toot 😆

I understand the longer character limit is enticing but why are people writing entire blogs on Mastodon lol

@botteaap I've just started unfollowing folks who exclusively cross-post since they clearly prefer Twitter.

@yasmineevjen If you're trying to build a portfolio kinda site then Carrd (https://carrd.co/) is unbeatable, for more involved sites others have given good suggestions.

Cheaters in unrated games 🤡

Michael Leggett seems to have brought his simpl.fyi extension to #Mastodon and it looks great!

@zachklipp

Massive fan of how easy it is to assemble compact #Docker images with #Nix.

I've been trying to get more comfortable with #nix during my downtime and writing usually helps, so here's a quick dummy friendly (it's me, I am dummy) post about writing checks for your Nix Flakes

@jw Agreed, when they got acquired by GitHub they basically disappeared off the face of the Earth while they were integrating Dependabot into GitHub's monolith and the development velocity just never recovered.

@jw Everytime I've wanted to do something specific it's been like "there's a 3 year old issue for it in Dependabot" and with Renovate it's either a quick regex manager away or has just always worked perfectly. I feel Dependabot is understaffed to some extent but it's still inexcusably bad for what it promises.

@friendlymike wooooo! one of us! one of us!

Jokes aside I've spent a fair bit of time using Rust in side projects so please don't hesitate to tag me if you run into any roadblocks :D

@TartanLlama And it looks fabulous as ever :D

Still don't fully understand how AndroidX Paging works under the hood but this was a fun bug to chase down, I'll try to put down my debugging steps for this in a blog post soon

@0xDEADBEEF@fosstodon.org @eighthave That's incorrect, you're thinking of min SDK.

Though I did learn my lesson and

a) changed the constant to be more obvious: https://msfjarvis.dev/aps/b84f7ccd0784

b) added a proper regression test: https://msfjarvis.dev/aps/39a0284cd552

Days since last time-related mishap: 0

@lehtimaeki @friendlymike I'm assuming it's this since Mike has been working on it

https://github.com/AndroidDev-social/DodoForMastodon

@sasikanth Ah, that checks out.

@sasikanth Probably an issue with the CoroutineDispatcher you're using?

@sasikanth It should all work as you'd expect, most of Paging is in a JVM library so unit testing is actually rather straightforward. Have you seen the official docs and samples?

https://developer.android.com/topic/libraries/architecture/paging/test

https://github.com/android/architecture-components-samples/blob/0905d0e307ef457a4c37511a542edfe3bdb4d2a3/PagingWithNetworkSample/app/src/test/java/com/android/example/paging/pagingwithnetwork/reddit/repository/SubredditPagingSourceTest.kt

Currently running memtest86 to confirm the JVM crashes I've been having are not from bad memory.

Also praying it's not bad memory cuz I'm too broke to replace it :blobSmileSweating:

@jw @dankim @cb Hazel over on Hachyderm already put together a JS-based redirection page that should continue to work.

Rediscovered this neat library that takes care of generating Compose PreviewProviders for

@jsbarretto Unfortunately not, there's an open feature request at https://github.com/tuskyapp/Tusky/issues/1049

@megmac I'm really looking forward to let chains being stabilized again https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/53667

@friendlymike I believe CashApp's port[1] of AndroidX Paging does work on the JVM, though when I needed paging a year or so ago I used a different library[2]

Released a new build of Claw with a rework to the collapsing behavior of comments, which now closely matches the UX on lobste.rs itself

https://github.com/msfjarvis/compose-lobsters/releases/tag/v1.14.0

Started using Linear to keep track of tasks in my OSS projects and the only thing I've discovered so far is that I like to pick up way too many things :blobHelp:

@dankim I've found Mullvad (https://mullvad.net/) to be consistently great for the past 3 years or so I've been a customer.

@sgrif Friendly fire RiiR :thonk:

@sgrif ChatGPT's clearly building its own crossbeam with blackjack and hookers

Looks like Bintray's SSL certificate expired and now every time I do a Gradle sync, Android Studio prompts me 4 times whether to accept or reject the certificate :thonk:

Finally got some time to dedicate to finalizing the Kotlin/JVM port of age, I've started work on getting the upstream tests to run against our implementation which is the last piece before documentation and a 1.0 release.
