Android 17’s better HTTPS privacy is rad. I’m proud that OkHttp 5.5 makes it easy to adopt.

I usually include a destkop/JVM client in Compose Multiplatform projects I work on as I think faster to iterate on. Just realised that also very useful to have a Kotlin/Wasm based client as Claude is able to drive it faster using following plugin code.claude.com/docs/en/chrome
code.claude.com
Use Claude Code with Chrome - Claude Code Docs
Connect Claude Code to your Chrome browser to test web apps, debug with console logs, automate form filling, and extract data from web pages.

Leaderlike. My @smh cartoon.
Single frame. Albo at a desk in a dark room with “OFFICE OF AI” on door, hunched up looking at laptop, says, “How do I deal with AI?” Response in computer speech comes: “That’s a great question, Anthony! I can see you really want to do the smart thing in spite of all the risks, climate implications and likely human cost. I can help you look past those inconveniences and focus on producing optimal outcomes for my owners while making you sound responsible and leaderlike. How does that sound?”

We need a law that says DEADLY HEATWAVE stories must be accompanied by a photograph of the toll - e.g. a massive queue at an ER department - not people supposedly enjoying the sun at a park or the beach. (This one not even contemporaneous, but pulled from stock photos!)
BBC story with headline "Europe's deadly heatwave breaks German record and halts public events", with a photo of two people sitting in a park under a blue sky next to a fountain.

I am shocked that One Nation - one of Australia’s most far-right parties - has grabbed a bunch of first preferences using racist populism and faux libertarianism but so far won no seats because aside from those who put them at #1 no one wants them in parliament. Shocked I tell you! #SAvotes #auspol
Screenshot of the ABC News website showing with 51% counted in yesterday’s South Australia election there are only 10 seats in doubt and so far One Nation has not been confirmed to win any.

Vibe coding broke people's brains because they had a bad understanding of the software design process. The pop culture model goes something like this: start out with a sketch and then render that same idea in progressively finer detail. So when tools could "skip" to high detail, people went WOW.

What happens to Square / Block Android OSS projects post layoffs? Let's start with some context OSS at Square is mostly a happy accident. Jack hired Bob, who's job was attracking world class engineers, and he did that through talks & OSS.

From a colleague: The anti-pattern is a `PLAN.md` that says "we will do X" when the code already does Y. Plans live in conversations; outcomes live in artifacts. Full up-front planning never worked in software development, agentic coding won't change that

Pole Vault Pole xkcd.com/3183/
Comic. [Person running on a giant round toward a pole vaulting crossbar; a long pole bent in an arch from the ground, over the crossbar, to the ground again, with person climbing it upside down over the crossbar; person runs to catch up with a long poll rolled into a circle and tied that is rolling toward the crossbar, jumps to catch it, hanging off as it spins, and then is flung over the crossbar when it approaches.]  [caption] Fun fact: There are no limits on the length or diameter of the pole in pole vault.
