"The #bicycle may seem like a basic form of transportation, but it’s really a complex solution to urban traffic problems." joyride.city/blog/bicycles-s…

Yes, bicycles are the solution to urban traffic problems

Here are three ways that bicycles can solve urban traffic problems—and why operating your own shared bicycle system is also a profitable part of the solution

Replying to @davidmcw
@davidmcw I built howmuchrent.com/ for Rental Transparency in the Irish marketplace. Would love to chat. 50 people added their rents/descriptions so far. Everyone seems to have an accommodation horror story, which gets lost on each new rental cycle.

The first alpha release of the Jetpack Bluetooth library is here. "This is the initial release of AndroidX Bluetooth APIs that provides a Kotlin API surface covering Bluetooth LE scanning and advertising, and GATT client and server use cases. It provides a minimal API surface, clear thread model with async and sync operations, and ensures all methods be executed and provides the results."

Dropped in to my old GAA club tonight, mainly to marvel at how much it has grown, and now have to buy some boots.

Given the amount of interest a tweet showing a photo of an empty cycle lane got, I thought it's a good time to bust out this one again. Cycle lanes and footpath don't appear congested as they (mostly) allow people to move through quickly and efficiently.

All it takes for a company to lose you for life is to fool you once. I signed up to a monthly Adobe subscription, only to realized it was a *yearly* one paid monthly (?!) when I tried to cancel, and Adobe did not let me. That was it: me done with Adobe. I cannot recommend them.
Email with text saying: Hi Gergely, I hope this email finds you well! I'm just following up on the email I sent earlier about providing a complimentary resume resource from Adobe alongside your own. We would love to have it shared on pragmaticengineer.com for your audience's use. Please reach back at your earliest convenience. And if there is a contact who would be better suited to help your audience reach this free resource, please let me know. Thank you again for your consideration and your time. My response: Adobe has terrible dark patterns on pricing. I got tricked into a 1-year contract when I thought I am getting a monthly one before. I will neither buy, nor recommend, nor link to anything Adobe again until this dark pattern is used by the company (it still is). Regards, Gergely

Check out the latest update on Dagger KSP support here: github.com/google/dagger/iss…

Feature request: Support KSP · Issue #2349 · google/dagger

For Kotlin projects, Dagger currently makes use of KAPT. This is generally quite slow since it requires generating Java stubs before the annotation processing step. KSP offers an alternative to thi...

Better Launch Setup. (androiddevnotes.com/tutorial…) Disable Run and enable Logcat in Android Studio. Saves time closing that Run window every time the app is launched. #AndroidDev

Hey #AndroidDev! Another Android Studio Tip: Do you want to get a quick glance at a function implementation without actually navigating to it? Then you can use option / alt + space to open up the "Quick Definition popup" very handy 👌

Great thread on the Irish power grid and it's new addition

🧵 You might have heard/seen this announcement of a new Synchronous Condensor at Moneypoint and wondered what the hell is that, and why do we need it ? If you're interested, I've pulled together a thread explaining this and how our grid works

Was going through the Android Studio's source and that's when I came across super useful feature (for me). You can apparently Right click on the Composable preview, and it'll automatically copy the preview to clipboard. (No more screenshots) :D
