  Project mention: How to create bar chart from scratch? | reddit.com/r/androiddev | 2021-05-09

  Creating custom views like a chart is not what you sholud start learning with. To be honest, most of the time we're using libraries that provide ui things. We just custiomize things and rarely write everything from scratch. You should focus on other things like design patterns, core libraries, async code, ui components, design patterns and Android API in general. Look at this library https://github.com/PhilJay/MPAndroidChart , it should be pretty good.

• fastlane

  🚀 The easiest way to automate building and releasing your iOS and Android apps

  

  Project mention: Highlights of new technologies introduced at WWDC 2021 | news.ycombinator.com | 2021-06-07

  Agreed and this has been true forever.

  The incredible amount of work that has to go into https://github.com/fastlane/fastlane/releases always impresses me.

  APIs and authentication is ever changing all because Apple refuse to embrace modern devops. They have this idea that apps are produced by lone devs in their bedrooms and the process is designed for them.

  Project mention: Ask HN: Differences in Programming Style by Nationalities | news.ycombinator.com | 2021-04-19

  I first noticed a difference in national styles when I contributed a patch to fastjson, a JSON parser in Java from Alibaba.

  Take a look around the repo; it'll look odd to a western programmer. There is a lot of duplication. And the tests don't have names, they are numbered.

  https://github.com/alibaba/fastjson/blob/master/src/test/jav...

  This was several years ago. I did end up choosing it since it really was the fastest.
