Yes its one time for android, if you’re earning money with ads or purchases, google will take 1/3 of that amount, then you will have to figure out taxes on your own and there’s also some special policies for selling online goods in India, but if you’re just making apps - its one time fee to be able to upload them to google play store, or you can just distribute with froid/github for free, which is a great route as well
From the perspective of FOSS developer:
I simply don’t want to pay €100 every single year to Tim Apple to make a free hobby app.
Android has more ways to distribute, and the “official” way is one time €25 fee and that’s it.
Tech related stuff and old memes*
Telegram with my gf and family, discord with friends. Fb messenger is awful to say the least
Isn’t its everywhere in the world right now? Economic system is rigged towards the elites and thats what we have to deal with
It’s not like corporations produce greenhouse gasses because they think it’s fun.
I think we can agree on that corporations are aimed at cheapest way to produce most popular goods at the biggest scale they can achieve for, in the end, produce the biggest possible profit. Thats what corporations are made for: money.
In the end, rich guy gets a yacht, bunker for apocalypse and private residence with AC, private kitchen stuff and anything they want so he will be fine even if its 60C outside. If it will get unbearable, they’ll move to something like Norway and will be fine.
At the same time, hundreds of thousands of people who live in hot countries will die and millions will be climate refugees.
All that, because producing iphone with coal electricity (simplification, albeit I feel like its close to truth) is 10$ cheaper.
Blaming corporations, even if partially accurate, doesn’t actually get us any closer to solving things.
Swapping to paper bags will not help either. There are only two options to solve the issue:
1 is impossible because gov will never cut the feeding hand and 2 is just a matter of time until we will get couple hundred millions migrants from Aftica, India, Pakistan etc.
Literally my father moment
Yeah its pretty standard to have in offices and shops, but not in apartments or houses. I’ve seen couple of ceiling fans in Spain, but here in France some people don’t even use regular floor fans for some reason lol
To be honest, we only get 2 hot months in a year (usually, though its starting to change and now its more like 3 hot months where 2 are extra hot)
This is fine, we just need to switch from plastic bugs and make caps attached to bottles and everything will be alright! Together we can fight at least 1% of the carbon emissions from top 100 corporations in the world :)
All these things are solving different problems and you absolutely don’t have to use them if they complicate your current workflow.
I can’t imagine making a high interval trading app, things like notion or figma without modern libraries.
jQuery only gets you so far before you will wake up in unmaintainable hell where your team has to re-invent the wheel
Always confused when I see memes like this
You learn js, then you learn a bit about ts and pick react/vue if you want to do frontend or nodejs if you’re into backend. Then you do something basic, like a barebones twitter clone, weather app, etc. By the point when you’re 80% done, you will know most important parts of the ecosystem naturally
After that, learning all the supporting libraries/frameworks is super simple since next is just superset around react, same for nuxt. Solid, svelte, fresh etc are just different flavors of react. Even vue is looking like react this days with composition api, simply because they nailed the simplicity and dev comfort. Average dev will never face weird js/ts parts or confusing libraries because most of their day to day job will be moving buttons and looking how to persist user basket in browser storage…
Sure there are a lot of libraries and ways to do stuff, but 90% of them are irrelevant, only-for-hobby or simply dead and unused since 2010. Knowing ts+(react|vue)+(vuex|redux-tk|mobx)+(styled|tailwind) will land someone a basic job where they can progress and expand their knowledge lol
Some of the specific communities are there but not here or barely alive here (like my phone’s brand) so I’m visiting them from PC. Spez gets no moni because I’m always using unblock there though
In addition to what others said,
There is also a fear of my own code being judged online.
Please don’t worry about it. This is how you get better in your career/skills. You need other’s judgement to think about your code and how you can improve it and your skills. :) Thats the huge bonus you get out of code reviews.
Worth to note that their audio quality and anc is worse than competition noticeably. So its quality vs environment
