Author/writer, but with indentation. Polyglot, but use Kotlin/TypeScript/Dart at work.

Sometimes I think that software development is not for perfectionists.

Some vehicles are controlled by software and have OTA updates. In the future, maybe all vehicles are like this. Imagine someones have remote access (and control) to your cars...

We should have open source software for vehicles.

Have heard Android "Vanilla Ice Cream" and "Baklava" for a long time, but just realized that they skipped W, X, Y, Z, and A. Why?

[fikr4n @fikr4n]

No matter how perfect the code I write now, my future self will criticize it, either the code or the time I've wasted.

It has been several months since our Rust project was frozen, but I can't forget it. Rust is so beautiful that I still visit the documentation and books, even though our current project uses Dart (Flutter) instead. Dart isn't bad, but it's not as beautiful as Kotlin (Compose).

At this point in my life, I don't need any inspirational quote anymore, what I need is a pouch of Nasi Padang.

[fikr4n @fikr4n]

Android Studio's default shortcuts are "just enough" for me, while VSCode/VSCodium misses some shortcuts that I need. I restrain myself from creating a new shortcut, but sometimes it becomes unbearable, now I have 3 custom keybindings, 1 of them conflicts with the default set.

This quote is sometimes true.

"Haruskah saya berdoa untuk hal seremeh ini?"
Ya, harus, karena doa adalah bukti ketundukan.

Now my mouse extra buttons customization works (again).

I identify as keyboard warrior, but when it comes to mouse, it must have keyboard Shift and Ctrl keys :D.

- Install Fedora > install Android Studio > run emulator in Studio ==> the emulator is very slow, except those with low API levels
- Close Android Studio > run emulator from terminal ==> all are fast
- Run Android Studio again > run emulator in Studio again ==> all are fast
:/

Another (relatively) complex rule in HTML/CSS: grid item placement algorithm.

[fikr4n @fikr4n]

Compose, as a newer technology compared to HTML+CSS, is simplified, with less "surprise". I learned HTML more than 10 years ago, but I just found out that HTML has a complex rule: margin collapsing.

[fikr4n @fikr4n]

Have been into FE for several months, the transition from Compose to React was smooth, much knowledge is transferable, but there are some gotchas. I want to defend fellow engineers in job markets:D : tech stack is just a tool, you're an engineer, not an android/web/etc engineer.
