I just started my foray into Kotlin development. I was very pleased at the language and ease of getting a simple, yet great looking app up and running. I was ready to publish. Verified my ID, paid the fee, and... good fucking lord the rest of the shit I had to account for after that made me want to delete the whole thing and never come back.

I know I can host the apk myself, go to other app stores, etc... but Jesus Christ. I'm sure it kills off a lot of spam bots and bad actors. But, i'd rather just get interviewed by somebody at Google to tell them how undeniably dumb and simple my joke app is then go through this process.

Depends on business model. Saas - quality is very important. Non-profit insurance/bureaucratic type - they'll burn millions to hire plenty of QA then treat them like shit, ignore them, and push trash software all day

When did you get hit by "the tetris effect" AKA playing a video game so much that you get the urge to do moves/actions from the video game in real life? in c/[email protected]

I really liked action racing games like NFS and Burnout right around the time I turned 16 and got my driver's license. I didn't do anything too crazy. But, since I had been grinding those games, my confidence on the streets of my suburban town in my dinky 2000 Nissan Altima significantly increased.

This was my main concern about switching. I have to use MFA apps for work. So, it's possible to have different profiles, and I can back up my codes and retrieve on my new profile using GrapheneOS?

If Reacher is your first introduction to this man's acting capabilities, allow me to take the pleasure of introducing you to Blue Mountain State. All hail Thad.

I went from Oklahoma -> Florida -> Pittsburgh -> Charlotte. As far as weather goes, Charlotte and Oklahoma provided the most variety and for me the most enjoyment when the seasons changed. However, I really don't like the Winter blues, even though it's not as a bad as Pittsburgh. Also, I can't deny that I was way healthier all year round living in Florida.
