When your daughter is a fan of Peppa Pig and wants you to draw it but you draw like a 2yo.

So happy I don’t have to draw for a living.

How it started vs how it is going:

Recently I had to migrate a project to use AGP 8 and hit some issues with maven publish setup. So I made a note outlining a pitfall I hit: https://notes.amatkovsky.com/Publishing+APK+as+an+artifact+to+maven+with+AGP+8

Hope this helps and saves someone some googling.

Note to myself if I ever need to disable a gradle task again:

Would love to hear if there is a more appropriate way to disable benchmark and baseline profiles when I don’t want them to run during the build.

Stating that Ukrainians and Russians suffer alike creates a wrong focus. The same kind of focus that leads to awarding an Oscar to a movie about a white supremacist with imperialist ambitions labeling himself a liberal.

Google employees posted an open letter with demands for Alphabet. While I agree with with the points they are making there is a very dangerous statement included (no 3).
I want to stress how delusional it is to put Ukraine and Russia on the same list as countries with humanitarian crises.
Russia has no humanitarian crisis. Russia is waging a a war and a genocide and every Russian citizen is responsible for it for either supporting it or not doing anything to stop it.

Your regular reminder that Russia is a terrorist state and needs to be dismantled into a number of demilitarized nation states.

Taking the train in Canada for the first time
So cool that I have an option not to drive
I do have to ask: what’s the point of weighing bags?

Besides of all the horrors of the war 2022 also marked 100 years since the founding of USSR which was the bloodiest and the most genocidal period in the history of my country.
Fuck commies. All over the world, but russian ones in particular.

All because russians think they can invade another country and bomb civilians.

I am grateful for being able to spend this day baking Christmas bread in a warm and lit home. My parents who are in Kyiv spend most of their days without electricity and sometimes heating.

Today marks 10 months since I had to leave my home to save my family from russians.

Do I have someone from #instacart here?
My account has been blocked for no apparent reason, the link I got in an email doesn’t work and the only way to talk to support requires a login. With an account. That is blocked.
I think there is a bug in generating verification email so want to flag this. And get my account unblocked.

Hey fellow Canadians here! Got a question about canadian job market. What the hell is canadian work experience and why is it so hard to get a job without it? It feels like your previous experience abroad doesn’t really matter. My wife has been looking for a job for about 5 months now, applied for more than a hundred openings and got just a couple of interviews. It looks like there is a huge disconnect between government policy to bring in more skilled migrants and employers mindset.
