Pew pew! Making a Game with Compose Canvas on Wear OS 👾

A few weeks ago, Sara Hamilton and I took a slight detour from our usual areas of interest by making a Wear OS game using Compose for Wear OS. We started by building a clone of the Chrome Dino game…

"There’s a trick you can use to spot the junk algorithms. I like to call it the Magic Test. Whenever you see a story about an algorithm, see if you can swap out any of the buzzwords, like ‘machine learning’, ‘artificial intelligence’ and ‘neural network’, and swap in the word ‘magic’. Does everything still make grammatical sense? Is any of the meaning lost? If not, I’d be worried that it’s all nonsense."

If you have a CLI and `cmd subcmd --parameter` isn't the same as `cmd --parameter subcmd`, I hate your CLI.

(looking at you, git)

It's confusing to newcomers and I think it's bad UX to repurpose something another app uses to mean "verified", even if I disagree with the concept of verification.

Here's some context from @Gargron from a while ago: https://mastodon.social/@Gargron/105148613805789692

I'm so happy I can share some funny stuff again  One of my main reasons to have a social media account😇 Enjoying some fun things and sharing the ones that can hopefully bring a smile to someones face or learn something new! 

There has been a lot of upheaval in the community with layoffs and we'd definitely like to help. If your company is hiring we've opened up our job board at droidcon.com for anyone to post for free.

If you are looking for a job, there are already a bunch posted... and while you're there you can use all the conference vids and the ProAndroidDev blogs to brush up on interview topics. It's all open to the community.

If you think of other ways we can help, please let me know!

When following back people here, I’m noticing a lot of people haven’t posted anything yet.

If you can’t think of anything to write just yet, then do consider just reblogging (=retweeting!) good content that you see around. You could start with this post, for example, to encourage more people to start sharing content around here.

BTW, as we get the Bylines publications going on here, that will provide ample good news content for the community. 👍👍
