Happy New Year! I'm proud to show off the side project I've been working on for the past few weeks.

OpenAI's contract with Microsoft is until AGI is achieved or this World Series game ends.

My family went to Italy earlier this year and almost every Italian who checked my passport and saw my full name asked me if I spoke Italian and was disappointed when they learned the answer was "no". There are a lotta descendents of masons in Italy!

Just go into an extended metaphor about how Android is like a macaroon. Mostly talk about making macaroons without really tying it back to Android. Also crepes.

Portland airport carpet with it's classic pattern

I was there very recently too! Tillamook play area was a hit with the kid and the classic carpet was a hit with me.

Yeah, I prefer it to Venmo for sending/receiving money. It does like a hundred other things now (stock market, taxes, bitcoin, rewards programs, debit card, etc), but I just use the basic functions. I'm also a bit biased because I worked at the parent company (formerly called Square) a while back.

Thanks for the mention of Gobley!

Bluesky now has late trains too!

It started during my paternity leave when I was tinkering with Kotlin bindings for @veilid.com. Unfortunately, I haven't got the bindings in a shareable state, but the UniFFI tooling was fascinating, so I stuck around and helped out.

tl;dr If you use (or want to use) @rust-lang.org in your @kotlinlang.org project, you'll love Gobley!

Gobley is a fork of the (now archived) uniffi-kotlin-multiplatform-bindings (gitlab.com/trixnity/uni...) which is built on Mozilla’s excellent (still active) UniFFI (github.com/mozilla/unif...) project.

We also have some documentation for newcomers:
Hands-on tutorial: gobley.dev/docs/tutorial
Cross-compilation tips to integrate Kotlin, Rust, and C++: gobley.dev/docs/cross-c...
Cross-platform example app (Android, iOS, Windows API, & Linux GTK): github.com/gobley/goble...

Hi Bluesky, a side-project I've been helping with is now ready to share!

Gobley provides a Gradle build integration between Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) and Cargo for Android, iOS, and JVM.

Now he can dial it back a bit on putting his body on the line please.

@reckless.bsky.social only wants to talk about the FCC chairman and firmware. @theverge.com should be renamed to "Carr and Driver".

I'd love a sequel to Home Alone 2, but I don't know who'd I trust to direct a Home Alone 2 2.

screenshot of what would be a Hank Green TikTok but there's a pop-up explaining that TikTok has been banned and so you can't use it

I guess I'll never learn what @hankgreen.bsky.social was going to teach me.
