I've made apps in tons of different ways, kotlin with jetpack compose, react native, cordova, old school java activities.

Imo cross platform is the way to go, react native has been the easiest to maintain for me, I have 4 production react native apps that have been fairly successful and easy to maintain. My two biggest complaints are the difficulty of running on desktop, and the pain of upgrading react native versions. Expo sucks but it's the best we have and does help with upgrading.

Flutter is fine, dart is not my favorite but it's definitely worth looking into.

I looked into the tiktok platform, didn't really speak to me tbh

I suppose there are worse ways to advertise your business than cosplaying a morally confused young man. But it’s quite tacky.

This guy is pretty knowledgeable about this news, and talks about how/where to find the real numbers.

Who cares what elon thinks? And I'm not sure there was ever a world where openai would have truly let the nonprofit arm take over.

There's a startrek enterprise episode where the crew gets stuck in a timeloop

Season 5, episode 18

I think that's the basis of the meme

A practical guide to evil by ErraticErrata (web serial)

I'm on book two, it’s an interesting read, kind of a satire of the hero's journey.

It probably evens out to ~$20 usd/month between recurring donations and one time random donations to the internet archive, wikipedia and some specific open source contributors. Gaming for me is usually 1-2 new games a year so likely similar in cost.

I donate $5/month to lemmy, and am considering doing more for the other important projects out there.

The open source community is one of the most important anchors in our modern society, not only do we as every day people benefit, but communities like npm, gradle, pip, etc all benefit the financial system greatly. We do not do enough.

Nothing is a bargaining chip dealing with trump except money going directly to his bank account. They should literally just bribe him.

The verb choice of headlines is really a plague.

Slam, blast, hit, rip, and now swerve. Remarkable journalism.

When I was young, raised religious, there was an intense focus on finding purpose in life, almost as if there is no value to life itself without some end goal.

After leaving religion and superstition behind everything that is left is remarkable, fascinating, and beautiful. There's no need for life to have a purpose, a sunset doesn't need to clock in to work, a rock doesn't have an active role to perform but it's still fine for it to exist, us too.

I used to wish there was done grander purpose, but have you ever considered where that ends? Say you do have an ultimate purpose on earth, to collect all the smeeshmups, you do it and then what? Say your purpose is to be a good little Christian person and go to heaven, then what? Glorify some monkey with an anus for eternity because he agreed you did a good job? Yikes
