I wish there were more / better resources on Skia shaders. I know they’re functionally identical to OpenGL shaders (at least last I checked), but as someone who wants to use shaders in Compose but has little to no shader experience, it’d be nice if there were more beginner Compose / Skia resources.

I love it when there’s a root shell and/or uBoot on the serial device. It makes my life so much easier when trying to mod / RE things. 😆

It’s so true it hurts. Jetbrains can make some questionable / annoying decisions at times, but man, Google is probably my single biggest annoyance with the Kotlin ecosystem. 😆

Due to christmas being near, here's a small poem.

Tis the Google way,
deprecate and look away,
don't provide alternatives,
people @Supress half their codebase anyway

These Android KMP changes have been a complete mess IMO. Everything feels half baked and super frustrating to work with for minimal gain. The fact that I now have to have separate Gradle modules for an Android and desktop app sucks a lot, and the new Android library plugin has lots of known issues.

Negotiations are cool. It’s nice to have a formal mechanic for it in a TTRPG. Combat is so much easier than D&D.

Draw Steel is awesome. Have played it each time a new pre-release was made available for the past year or so. Still need to play it now that the official release is out.

Zen garden sand until the vinyl record icon was added (I think in OS X Lion?).
