We don’t talk enough about the importance of standard components in a greener economy. Engineers always say “but *our* design for battery/connector/module is 2% better than a standard one”, missing the point that it’s far worse for repair, reuse, recycling & minimising extra “stuff”. It’s maddening.
It’s time for THE charger.

Today, the USB-C becomes officially the common standard for charging new mobile electronic devices in the EU.

It means better-charging technology, reduced e-waste, and less fuss to find the chargers you need!

Out of curiosity (and a longing for my home directory to be less cluttered) would anyone know if there are environment variables that can guide Android Studio to where these files APK analysis project should be placed?

Perhaps @tornorbye.bsky.social knows?

Worlds largest "standardized" decaf test. Just got myself a kit, but already plenty of the roasters have sold out.

It's easy to think every #dev should maintain a blog, contribute to open source and have multiple side projects on the go.

You can be passionate about tech without doing any of those things.

Fun fact: If someone quotes a post of yours in a way that is unwelcome (as is commonplace on Twitter/X) there is a tool to combat the unwanted attention. Simply click the three dot menu on the quote post & click "Detach quote". This removes your post from their quote post. Useful to know, do share!
