@kvlly I think that depends on how you use them. They can show you how a candidate approaches a problem and what they prioritize, and it's a starting point for technical discussions. I don't care if they use Google, SO, or GPT to write the code, as long as they can reason about it.

@commonsware I used your books when I was starting out and have learned from your stackoverflow contributions. It's very nice of you to give all this away for free. I'll be sharing that link with my team. Thank you for helping all the Android devs out there!

Hey @demorgen, is het niet wat cynisch om een artikel met de titel "Wat zijn de symptomen van Covid-19? Hoe dodelijk is het virus?" achter de paywall te stoppen? Het is jullie plicht om de bevolking te informeren over deze pandemie.

@koenmetsu @cainetighe I am intrigued

When you go to a conference by yourself, but you're never alone #asg #io18

[Kevin Pelgrims @kevinpelgrims]

@Objective_Neo Nice. Hopefully it'll stay that way 🙂

Sure, I could sit closer to the stage, but it's my last day in California and I need some sun before I head back to Denmark #io18

I forgot to bring sunglasses, but Google's taking care of me. Looking forward to my first IO tomorrow! #io18

I tried to watch Three billboards on the plane, but I had to turn it off after 5 minutes because they replaced all the curse words and I was starting to feel like a fudging ridiculous honey sucker

The fridge in my hotel room must be from the 90s, because it sounds like it's defragmenting.

Sitting in a Starbucks in Anaheim, CA and suddenly @warhausmusic starts playing on the speakers. Pleasant surprise!

If you like to hang around at airports, be sure to fly with me. Most of my flights seem to be delayed, no matter where I am or where I'm going.
I think I'm cursed.

[Kevin Pelgrims @kevinpelgrims]

@tsmith Thanks! That should be enough for a few days :)

[Kevin Pelgrims @kevinpelgrims]

@chrisjenx That wasn't part of the plan, but I could do that if it's not too expensive :)

@tsmith Vacation

[Kevin Pelgrims @kevinpelgrims]

Going to California for a few weeks. I could go anywhere from San Francisco to San Diego.
Suggestions on what to do? Android meetups I should attend? Who's up for drinks?

Wrote a little blogpost to help myself remember all the important shortcuts for using multicursor in Android Studio (well, IntelliJ) https://t.co/bwVEkeeW1K
