Am I mistaken or is the premise: I don't like that users have an opinion about my app?

APKs need to be zipaligned, I don't see that mentioned.

Support? It's just showing weaknesses of LLM's. Which is a valid sort of research I would say?

This year I also switched from Ruby to Kotlin on my hobby/light commercial backends. I just can't stand the way Ruby is not statically typed, and the resulting insecurity around if everything is actually doing what it should do. K

I indeed really liked Ruby because of it's expresiveness, it being totally OO, the lovely readable and writeable syntax. But yeah, that was 20 years ago. These days I find Kotlin to be the perfect fit for my projects, because of the st

KVM is just your Linux Kernel Virtual Machine. So you can manage VM's on Linux. It is not related to Docker.

I recently opened Pinterest after a year or so, and did look for some nice architecture / houses, and all results had the tag 'AI enhanced'. No I don't want AI houses, I want to see real architecture! Even though the tag

So yeah, this is only really relevant for collecting logs from clickhouse. Not for logs from anything else. Good for them, and I really love Clickhouse, but not really relevant.

Yes, I would think that would work better indeed. As a augmentation or help tool. I would love to be able to say to MyFitnessPal that 'I ate this and that food, same as usual, and oh yeah drank this.' Just as a easier input interf

Did you verify it sometimes how accurate it is? I would be wary of it to be honest.

Ah yes, and every small Android dev is banned from Play and Admob for tiny unknown reasons, with no recourse or way to communicate with Google. But Meta here probably won't get any problems at all. They should be temporarily banned!

Haha, well it's that you asked. Mini Piano Lite, a piano app. Building it for 15 years already. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=umito.android....

Very well rounded and grounded article. Like it very much! Indeed as someone else in the comments said, the personal touch is the best asset you have as indie. So talk with your customers. I run a Android app, next to my day job, and I prid

I really like Clickhouse. Discovered it recently, and man, it's such a breath of fresh air compared to suboptimal solutions I used for analytics. It's so fast and the CLI is also a joy to work with.

I enjoy Rust, but have settled on Kotlin for my language of joy. I use it in my day job for Android, but also recently started converting personal project backends and APIs to it (mainly from Ruby). I really like the ease and joy Kotlin giv

Agree, we have some time in sprints to do whatever we want, and then you finally can fix those minor annoyances that are probably the users annoyance too. But in general I think more time should be there reserved for it. It's now once

Or just use Clonezilla? Then you also copy only the actual data blocks, and it can autoresize your partitions as well. That's how I always do it. True, I do always just take the NVME disk out of the laptop and put it in a highspeed doc

Normal Asrock Ryzen 5xxx motherboards also supported ECC, I used ECC RAM for my homesever with a normal 5900X and a Asrock B650M Pro4 motherboard. The new Asrock Ryzen 7xxx motherboards unfortunately don't have that same ECC support.

Seeing there is no business model (or did I miss that?), how likely is it that this app is sending installed app lists to 3rd party for appstore analytics like Data.ai and similar services? Something needs to pay the bills?

Wondering why nothing is said about compression? For MySQL you have Rocksdb with high ZSTD compression. Is the Postgres solution to just use compressed filesystem like ZFS? I could not find much info when researching Postgress, except for T

Currently around that price indeed on Steam Sale, and lower if you only look for Spy Fox bundle or Put Put or whatever you want. Very nice.

I reluctantly did buy Extfs from Paragon for this. It's too expensive I think, but there are just no free opensource solutions.

If I recall correctly, Whatsapp supports webp for their sticker packs. And those are open to anyone to develop and integrate in Whatsapp on device with a intent.

How are you feeling about the upcoming InfluxDB 3? They moved to Rust and support InfluxQL again.
