A tweet from Nikita Bier that reads

I am assembling the Android Dream Team. 

The 1991-1998 Chicago Bulls of Android teams.

You will be working alongside the most elite engineers of your career.

Books will be written about this team.

This app will be regarded with more reverence than the moon landing

The code will change history more than the invention of the wheel.

Come rebuild the 𝕏 Android app.

DMs open. No remote candidates.

Always ask why the position was available

Airbnb guest says images were altered in false Β£12,000 damage claim Woman wins apology and refund of almost Β£4,300 after claiming host’s photos were digitally manipulated

"Airbnb said he (the host) had been warned for violating its terms"

I had horrible experiences with Superhosts the past few years. I tried leaving reasoned reviews of these hosts but Airbnb always remove them.

Don't trust the reviews on Airbnb.

Good point on that. Didn't consider the conditions at night that would favor Anisimova.

Interesting prediction since Raducanu is 2-0 against Anisimova.

I'm witnessing a transition from Slack to MS Teams.

When a Slack channel is archived and is moved to Teams, conversations don't move. They just die.

Shows up when you search for a neighborhood in NYC though.

How do you discover that? I can't figure out how to find one for other cities.

Doesn't even show up here in NYC.

Do you have the code you used for the talk available online?

Still not good enough for Tennis Channel to air the match in its 2 broadcast channels.

We got the Opelka match on TC Main channel and Kyrgios doubles match in T2.

@mmckenna.me Any chance I could get a copy of your slides from Droidcon NYC for the MCP session?

Need to present to company interesting talks we attended at DroidCon.

Thanks!

F1 is by far the most exhilarating movie I've seen this year.

Makes me want to start following F1 races.

Mainstream media and establishment Dems will do everything to stop Zohran from being NYC Mayor.

I cannot for the life of me dictate "passport" to Google. It always transcribes it as "Paz Paz".

As someone who didn't grow up in the US, I guilt myself into believing that maybe my accent is not good enough for Google to understand.

Maybe Android shouldn't let apps figure out if you have notifications turned on or not.

Paypal being shady by pushing marketing notifications and turning it off means also turning off important notifications because they all belong to the same category.

ReaderFlow - Your Personal Read-It-Later App A beautiful, offline-first read-it-later app that keeps your articles synced across all your devices.

Given the sunsetting of #Pocket, I’ve decided to rump up on a project that I’ve started last December, after the sunsetting of Omnivore :(

Say hi to ReaderFlow ( readerflow.app ), a offline-first simple read it later app.

On Google Maps Android app, whenever I try to save a place to a list, the last list I saved in is automatically selected making me think that I already saved it.

This has been going on for a month that I don't think it's a bug.

Bad UX choice though. Why not just put the last list used at the top?

Yo Starbucks! You can't just put cinnamon and call it Horchata. Rice milk is what makes an Horchata!
