@ariadne Honestly I can't even make up a person who would, how did an 80 minute video come to be??

#Kotlin 1.8.21 is out with a host of small bug fixes, including a compilation error caused by KAPT when running with JVM IR.

#AndroidDev

Might have found the only correct take on @1password announcing its plans for telemetry in their apps.

@fasterthanlime I'm glad to see you happy :)

No thoughts head hurting :blobHelp:

This is a very puritanical take on the matter. However much we'd prefer that people grasp the idea of server diversity and its benefits, most "normie" folks migrating to Mastodon are just looking for a new app to replace what they had.

Simplifying the onboarding process by offering to take out the fairly obtuse "pick a server" step is a great help to the platform. You can always migrate later :)

@its_martastic Is it a static site or something with a more complex server component?

I've had great experiences with deploying static sites to https://netlify.com, and Oracle Cloud's free tier has a relatively powerful ARM-based machine for anything more involved https://www.oracle.com/cloud/free/ .

@gonsalves Internet of Shit strikes again

TIL Google is splitting up Tink from its monorepo into individual repositories hosted at https://github.com/tink-crypto

@tailscale is the only product I've used where a "We've updated our billing structure" email talks about expanding the free tier rather than whittling it down to nothing.

@fasterthanlime I mean it made me click 5 "Notify me" buttons but also had me baffled for a minute so who can really say if it was truly a mistake

@fasterthanlime There are 5 separate instances of your
Silly Fast Fresh Deploys with Rust premiere from next month in my YouTube homepage so some algorithmic shit has occurred, I just don't know if we can explain it.

The #Mario movie was pretty fun!

@iateyourmic congratulations, super stoked for you!

Never change https://lobste.rs

@fasterthanlime congrats on the milestone! Hope your recovery is going well :)

Gotta love Sentry <3

Now to actually fix the issue 😅

Feeling a bit of FOMO as the Android 14 beta starts to roll out since the 4a is no longer supported. First time really saddened about the theft of my Pixel 7 but can't justify rebuying one when I have more priority expenses to tend to. Maybe when the next one comes out...

#JetpackCompose Compiler 1.4.5 is available now with support for #Kotlin 1.8.20. Do pay attention to the changed host Java requirements!

https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/compose-compiler#1.4.5

@Gradle 8.1 is out! No changes from 8.1 RC4 :)

https://github.com/gradle/gradle/releases/tag/v8.1.0

Feeling extra lazy today 🥱

Updating whetstone to #Kotlin 1.8.20 isn't going very well :(

https://github.com/msfjarvis/whetstone/pull/17

@Gradle v1.2.0 of the Gradle Plugin Publish Plugin adds a `--validate-only` flag to the `publishPlugin` which only validates the relevant metadata for the plugin you are publishing, akin to a dry run.

There is also now support for using Sigstore (https://sigstore.dev) for plugin signing and a bugfix for how the Shadow plugin interacted with plugin JARs.

https://docs.gradle.org/8.1-rc-4/release-notes.html#plugin-publishing-to-the-gradle-plugin-portal

@Gradle Builds generated using Gradle's `init` command will now be able to automatically provision the relevant JVM Toolchain using the Foojay resolver

https://github.com/gradle/gradle/pull/24646/files

Builds using parallel sync with JVM Toolchains will no longer cause sporadic exceptions

https://github.com/gradle/gradle/pull/24674/files

@Gradle 8.1 RC4 is now available with a handful of fixes around JVM toolchains and documenting the changes in v1.2.0 of the Gradle Plugin Publish Plugin (I know how that sounds :P )

https://github.com/gradle/gradle/releases/tag/v8.1.0-RC4

Starship 1.14.0 was just released and it includes a small patch from yours truly 🫡

https://github.com/starship/starship/commit/f7fe41f9c6c455e8ced284ad2d55d2a51a5da748

There is now a #JetpackCompose compiler available for #Kotlin 1.8.20!

https://androidx.dev/storage/compose-compiler/repository

Looks like there's progress! Hopefully it gets merged sometime on Monday so we can at least use the snapshots from https://androidx.dev/

Still no #JetpackCompose Compiler for #Kotlin 1.8.20 :(

https://android-review.googlesource.com/c/platform/frameworks/support/+/2427193

#AndroidDev

.@Gradle 8.1 RC3 is out with one bugfix for a behavior change that was accidentally enforced without the usual deprecation cycle.

https://github.com/gradle/gradle/pull/24601

Official changelog is finally out https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin/releases/tag/v1.8.20

Weekend's almost over and all the things I told myself I'd do are coming to me in flashbacks...

Gonna meet @devanshbajaj after so long today :androidPetPet:

It's been slightly rough being on a strict diet and consistent exercise schedule but it's definitely worth it.

I'm an instant gratification kind of person so not seeing major weight loss was a bit demotivating even if naive but just how much healthier I feel in my day to day is amazing. Definitely the best thing I've done for myself ever.

Opened up my editor to write a post for https://aprilcools.club and instead ended up tweaking random shit for two hours instead :]
