This is dynamite from Kaveh Solhekol on Sky Sports News. Absolutely nails it. He has the Tories and BBC on toast. Well done!! 👏 Take 2 mins and watch👇#garylineker #ImWithGary #MOTD #ToryFascists

OK, so Twitter is to remove the verified tick from those they’ve actually verified the identity of, and instead a verified tick will simply in future mean 'paid account'. This is not a good for scam or fraud prevention. Scammers can pay as they make money from it.

Elon Musk Feb. 14, 1990 NASA's Voyager 1 at a distance of 3.7 billion miles away pointed its camera back at Home and took one last pic as suggested by Carl Sagan. Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever

Unless I misheard, a BBCTV reporter this morning said "very few people are now alive who remember the Queen's Coronation". I think rather a lot of my friends, relations and contemporaries must have been surprised, not to say affronted, to hear that. It wasn't Dunkirk, you know.

Vasiliy Zukanov Coding in Flow If there's one thing that pushes native Android development towards Compose, it's that Google is actively destroying learning materials/resources available for using Fragments/Views. For example, certain Android Studio project templates add ComponentActivity, but not Fragment.

Our wonderful camera operator is retiring after more than four decades. We will all miss him hugely. If you fancy working in a really busy news and sports patch, there is no better job. As an added bonus, you get to work with a brilliant bunch of people! linkedin.com/jobs/view/3815…

My daughter is studying Java in university. She consults with me a lot, often confused on why she has to do this and that, like why ints compare with ==, but Strings with equals, why int -x, but BigInteger x.negate(), why extends vs implements, why arrays[] but List.get(), etc.

As my friends in Wales and England vote in the local elections today, this marvellous picture from Chris 🕷🐦 serves as an important reminder: politicians come and go - cats remain.

Jetpack Compose value proposition: You'll re-learn UI construction from scratch to spare 10 minutes implementing a simple list, and then spend unpredictable amount of effort debugging performance issues and quirky bugs😜

I had always advocated against RxJava, but hesitated to call it universally bad, so I never wrote a "RxJava Considered Harmful" piece. Lately I've been thinking about Kotlin Flow, and finally formulated my broad objection. techyourchance.com/reactive-progr…

Before refactoring legacy code, show it some respect! It might be messy, but it works and handles complex real-world requirements. Thinking “I can rebuild this better in no time” is how refactoring projects get stuck in bugs hell, delayed, or even cancelled.
