Hey all, I’m AJ. I’m a mobile dev with over 10 years of experience building Android apps. I’ve worked on & led feature teams, app re-writes, CI/CD, and more. I ❤️ SwiftUI and have built a few small iOS/macOS apps on my own. For fun I love TTRPGs, playing golf, and chilling at my abode. #introduction
I really like what I do. I like solving little problems on my computer. I like making pretty software for people to use and enjoy. In a world where the world's largest companies would prefer to build around people like me, what are we to do?

One suggestion for doing dev work with #claude code or some other ai - document the prompts you used to get to your current result. I often compose my prompts in a separate md file that acts as a record after the fact. But you can always prompt the helper to "print a list of prompts I used", etc.

Adelita Grijalva won her election fair and square.
Now House Speaker Mike Johnson is refusing to swear her in because she would be the final signature to release the Epstein files.
Mr. Speaker, respect democracy. Obey the law. Swear Representative Grijalva in immediately.

When I was in college I remember a semester where I measured the time I spent studying for finals in the library by the number of times I listened to this particular Foo Fighters album. #music #unrelatable

Today Claude helped me get over the hump of just utter brain fog and exhaustion to fix a minor UI bug, simply by finding something for me in the code that my tired human eyes couldn't see. IDK if I have a comment, but it's maybe the most useful interaction I've had so far with one of these tools.

I was feeling dizzy after the I/O Keynote. It's clear that the focus for Google is purely on AI & Gemini. But the Android team is still cranking, and the updates to Compose and new libraries for Navigation & Media were really cool. Feeling energized after What's New in Android #googleio #androiddev

Finished 'The Lemurian Phoenix' DLC for The Rise of the Golden Idol, and it's just not fair how all I want to do is solve puzzles and unravel strange scenarios. Nothing scratches quite the same itch.
Will just have to wait for later in 'Q2 2025' I guess 😮💨

It's a lot easier to do this now, and I wrote it before Compose navigation or Hilt, but I just updated my micro-library of extension functions for constructing ViewModels. Was just happy to get it to 100% Kotlin and that the publishing still worked 😅
