Wanting to learn is a good requirement in itself.

Try starting with the language and then see what you can make of it in that case. You may find out that it’s not exactly viable, but then you can always try something else.

Death, and tight spaces.

Understand what tradeoffs different solutions make, then inform your decision on that. A fairly general principle for example is that the more cross-platform compatible a solution is, the less well-suited it will be for any given platform in terms of looks/behavior/performance. This may or may not matter for what you’re building.

There are inherent qualities to some solutions (for example, a particular library may make for good solutions on a certain platform), and some qualities will be situational (a particular library is good for you because you happen to know the language/patterns/framework/whatever).

I personally like to build things in Kotlin and Jetpack Compose, but that’s because I primarily build mobile apps for Android and I like the reactive UI paradigm that underpins this library along with the language that it’s written in. I would perhaps reconsider if I were building a desktop app (not as well supported), and definitely reconsider if I were building a web app (definitely a poor fit).

So yeah, start with what you’re building and what its requirements are. Then think about what you already know, and finally put those together when evaluating a UI solution.

I’d call it common as in commonly offered, less so as commonly ordered. In my experience, at least.

I guess you could have every store selling them be required to register the sale mapped to the serial number, and disqualify any unregistered ticket. It’d be a bit of a hassle, but certainly doable.

Spill the beans!

I once hallucinated after being poisoned by lunch from a Torta truck in Mexico, somewhere south of Monterrey. I was in a cinder block shitter a mile down the road until the sun went down that day.

You forgot to add an important detail here - did the meal taste good?

I’m asking because I also got quite sick in Mexico, but always found the food to be excellent in terms of flavour.

Because the pandas are all staring at you.

AI-generated, perhaps?

Swedish, English and Spanish - in approximate order of proficiency.

Spaghetti and Swedish meatballs topped liberally with ketchup is a childhood staple food in Sweden. It’s honestly not bad, highly inoffensive food, fit for picky eaters.

Healthcare is pretty rough, I’d be willing to bet that the grass actually is greener in this case.

Jon Schlinkert, I believe. Sindre has a lot of stuff as well, but has a better reputation afaik

While the rest of the world shifted left dudes went ahead and shifted right

What’s specifically bad with the AmazFit watches in your experience? I’m curious to know.

I’ve been pretty happy with my stuff from TP-LINK.

The correct answer is neither because neither are particularly sensible means of transportation.

Barring that, train good plane bad

Sounds ideal tbh

BofA deez nuts lmao gottem

Fair warning, the battery consumption is pretty high - plan accordingly.

With a little bit of know-how, you can get Balatro running on your phone, and Balatro is amazing.
