thoughts on life, the universe and the mystery of it all; but actually mostly just code. this year, google rebranded the support android libraries to android jetpack (aka androidx). particularly pertinent to developers was how they repackaged all the libraries. not only have their maven coordinates changed, but the last year i moved from minneapolis to a neighboring suburb, edina. one of the downsides of moving was that i would no longer get local connectableobservable does not care when you subscribe to it; instead, it only begins its work when connect() is called. with that in mind, what is the output of the following?val connectableobservable = observable. i've been working on a new markdown handler for trello android. it uses commonmark-ja*a to parse an abstract syntax tree, which is then converted into a single, complex spannable. that spannable is constructed. hear me talkin' to ya: thoughts on remote communication. trello is a remote-friendly company, with over 60% of the company remote. atlas*ian, which acquired us last year, is mostly colocated. as i've spent more time with atlas*ians from other parts of the an addendum to this week's post about releasing buggy apps: a story of how everything can go wrong. trello android has a beta program filled bugs! no matter how many times i decree that my coworkers and i must stop writing bugs, we keep on doing it anyways. even worse, sometimes here's a sketch of how one could listen to connectivity changes on android via an observable of networkinfo: val networkinfo: observable =. networkinfo .map { it.isconnected } .subscribe { onconnectivitychange(it) } while it last time i wrote about notification channels i described a complicated solution to create the best balance between automatic bundling vs. not annoying the daylights out of the user: have as few channels icymi (or more likely, in case i want a reference), here's all the public stuff i've done in the past year. this year, i purposefully
