I've never seen it but that cast 🔥

Me jumping in front of the Google I/O landmark at the entrance of the Shoreline Amphitheatre.

Every mode of transportation was used in getting to this I/O
🏃‍♂️🚲🚂🚌🚗✈️

Throwback to my first Google I/O in 2022 presenting the Pixel Plant (jk) ❤️ excited to be back at the Shoreline today!

(it's good)

"Prince Abubu" - my kids get a kick out of that one 😁

☝️ Actual underrated pro-tip

Made a few more updates and added a new blog post (feat. Gizmo doodle by yours truly) ❤️

It's been 5 months since I've setup my personal site using Material for MkDocs (shoutout @squidfunk.com + contributors!) but I've had an "Under construction" banner until yesterday.

Just updated my landing page, check it out! Still a WIP, but my pup gets front row seats 🐶

Probably waiting for Gradle to build

My brain: *makes a todo list*
Also my brain: "you will never see this list again"

Plugging @xirclebox.com because I immediately thought of him when I said this 👏

Biggest takeaway from me:
"It would be good to open our minds and learn from other platforms."

Still recovering from saying "componentización" in this episode of @angularidades.com 😅 Great chat with @alejandrocuba.com on architecture, state, performance, and #a11y on Web and Android!

Bonus since we're in tech: Start-Up 👀

Watching kdramas with my wife is literally one of my favorite things to do ❤️ five (very carefully selected) recommendations for when your watchlist gets smaller:

- King the Land
- It's Okay to Not Be Okay
- Twenty One Twenty Five
- Bloodhounds
- The Glory

You know what really grinds my gears? Shows that are so good that you become emotionally invested only for them to fumble the finale so hard that you begin to question if you even liked it to begin with.

I'm back from vacation, let's get back into tech topics! I saw Madona's skeet and noodled on it with a friend on the chairlift.

The Fakes vs Mocks debate is a classic, visited many times with very strong opinions as well as "it depends" discourse.

Let's talk about why we write tests

Tonight I want to talk about how we track performance in production on the Square Point Of Sale

First, if you haven't yet, read @dml.bsky.social 's blog bsky.app/profile/dml....

Performance can take many shapes, let's dive into what we do!

#AndroidDev

It was a blast!

Today's the day! DevFest Miami 2024 🌴 is here! Slide thru and witness my level of exhaustion in person from taking the Brightline at 5am 🥲

I resonate with this. I have a list of funny domain names I'd scoop up on the slightest impulse 🫠

My favorite part is that the ladies of the local Pinecrest remembered the kids and their order of croquetas 🥹

Feels so good to be back in Miami, even if it's for a weekend ❤️🌴

Two Kotlin functions that take 2 float parameters a and b. Each function returns a divided by b if b is not 0, or a constant called DefaultValue otherwise. The first function does so using takeIf, let, and the "elvis" operator. The second function uses a simple if/else statement.

I love Kotlin but please don't abuse its features. I regularly see code like in the first function when you can instead write a simple if statement: it's shorter, easier to read, and doesn't allocate an object!

Thankfully both functions compile to the same assembly when R8 is turned on.

Doesn't happen as often as I'd like so I'll bask in this glory for now

When you're looking at pretty good code and git blame actually says you wrote it 🙂‍↕️💅

I would not survive in the Child's Play universe

I actually loved Chucky as a kid 😭

When I was a kid, I remember my aunt got me a 1:1 Chucky doll for my birthday and trying to scare me with it by asking me to grab something from the trunk of their car. As soon as I opened the trunk I was like "OMG, Chucky!" and proceeded to hug it

I made a similar trek back in my retail days. The bit of side walk I was using just randomly ended and became a highway ramp. 'Merica 🦅
