No, I saw that one. It says nothing about jerboa ending support, just that you won't be able to run it on "certified" devices. I.E. I'll have to go through the "allow uncertified apps" nonsense, and install it from somewhere other than Google Play. Presumably it's available on F-Droid.

I use the app and have received no such notification.

Where are you getting that jerboa is ending support? There's nothing of the sort on github or on /c/jerboa. I've no doubt they're not gonna register a google developer account, but that"s really got nothing to do with development of the app.

Fantastic game.

Do you think you are being overworked compared to the industry standard (from experience or vibes) ?

Hell no. I don't have personal experience, but I read enough social media from other software devs to know I've got it pretty good.

What are your responsibilities ?

I'm the de-facto UI guy on the team, and also kinda the team lead's go-to debugger for PROD issues. But we all do at least a little bit of everything. Really, we're all considered "responsible" for the systems/features we've built personally, in that if an issue comes up on something I built, the team lead comed to me first about it. Usually.

Do you do application deployments ?

Not directly. The main server guy does the actual work of building the deployment artifacts and copying them up to the server, while the main database guy does the same for all database artifacts, including assembling migrations scripts.

But our monthly scheduled deployments are a full-team affair. We're all on a call together, and we're all testing the stuff we worked on to make sure it deployed properly, and on occasion when something goes wrong, we're whipping up a hotfix on the spot.

What does the ownership look like in your compan. Do devs own everything and perform all tasks for the application to function? ( server management, server user profile management, application hosting, etc )

I touched on it a little above, but there's definitely roles, although the lines are blurry.

One guy does all the server maintenance stuff, that falls through the server provider's responsibilities. He also is the de-facto lead of our auth systems.

One guy is the de-facto database lead. He does almost all of our ETL-related work, and often will be the first prototyper of new features or new workloads, by just playing around with data in the database and figuring out how to properly map it into what users want to see.

One gal is our de-facto quality control. Generally, she does a secondary review of every change that gets merged, to check for regressions and such. This is particularly useful when multiple people end up working on changes to the same feature or system, and don't necessarily coordinate with each other.

Me, I mentioned, I'm the de-facto lead for UI, as I'm the one who spearheaded the effort to get us using TypeScript, and wrote almost all of our TypeScript "framework".

One guy is, I guess you could say, the de-facto lead for all our legacy features, that still run on jQuery and CSLA, and other nonsense. And we have a lot of those.

The last guy doesn't really have any AREA that I'd say he's a lead for, simply because he's not been around long enough to really build onele. He's cranked out quite a few big features, and would definitely be considered a lead on those.

Do you work off hours ?

VERY rarely.

Do you make the industry standard or are you paid less ?

Don't really know, honestly. Probably a bit under. I'm at like 110k/year, I think? In a relatively-low-cost-of-living area.

My favorite answer:

Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends.

Yup. I had this exact thought YESTERDAY, when I did a search for the name of a GitHub project I needed to read up on (I forget which project), with a couple keywords, and the GitHub page wasn't even IN the top results. Later, I was doing a search for a quoted phrase, which of course is supposed to guarantee that the phrase appears, verbatim, in the results, and found that NONE of the results contained that phrase.

And no, I wasn't looking at the AI results, I've got those removed with a plugin.

Love the one guy over on HackerNews calling this AI-generated. And by "love", I mean... JFC some people are unhinged.

I was briefly mindboggled until I realized "Oh, it's just Fourier transforms." Still a really cool application, though.

It's profitable for NVidia, because they're not actually doing anything with it, they're just selling all the hardware that everyone else needs.

Kindly place that idea back where you found it.

I ABSOLUTELY love this one. Definitely stealing it.

If Congress actively intervened and prevented it, then the Trump admin didn't back off, they were thwarted. What a shit headline.

Dunno if the article clarifies things, as it's paywalled.

I'm sure this has been asked before, but what should American Football be renamed to, to avoid confusion?

They're about to get a BIG bump in usership, when Manivest V2 goes dark.

JD Vance’s message to Israel: “You’re a country of 9 million people. You can’t just kill your way out of solving every single national security problem that you have.”

Glad to see nore progress on this, but damn, it sure is slow goings. Not to mention that there's been an obvious need for this for at least a decade.

I mean, that’s how it used to be when I was growing up.

The fact that "how it used to be" in your childhood produced a scumbag like you is a compelling argument to not let people's childhoods be like that anymore.

Oh, cool, another buyout where the buyer doesn't have to actually pay for it, they just take out a loan and magically make the company pay for it.

The fact that Fortnite has been going THIS STRONG for THIS LONG, and is still basically the most profitable competitive online game ever just proves that none of that shit is necessary.
