Today I'm super excited to launch the Mobile Native Foundation! Its goal is to improve large scale mobile development. Learn more about it and how to get involved: https://t.co/ImuLD8cVGz

[The Bazel Show @thebazelshow]

New massive episode of The Bazel Show! We discuss building iOS apps with Bazel with Keith Smiley, who is a mobile tooling engineer at Lyft, the lead maintainer of rules_apple and rules_swift and an active contributor in the Bazel community.

@jotto you just love to see it

[Zach Gray @zachgray_io]

@posco it's like the "learn to code" meme but backwards

[Jin @jin_]

If you've worked with external deps with @bazelbuild before, you'd understand the several pain points: no transitive resolution, cluttered WORKSPACE file, complex repository rules.

The team has gathered feedback, and created a new proposal to overhaul it: https://t.co/QeaoZwNcVZ

[Zach Gray @zachgray_io]

@jotto We did this for a customer via their bazel build.

I think the challenge here is you also need to provide the hash of the transitive dependency closure for anything this software relies on. Not sure how user-friendly that can be

@emaxerrno What about bazel??

[Bazel @bazelbuild]

Bump! Are you interested in giving a talk or demo at BazelCon 2020 ? If you have a proposal or idea for a presentation, please let us know via this form by August 27, 2020. First time speakers are encouraged and welcome !

I plan to write a few essays on trends in the venture capital industry.

First up -

A new set of players has emerged in the fundraising landscape, distinct from angels, super angels, and venture capital firms:

@posco man we're bitter cuz we mined or purchased 19 btc in the early days and then gave up on it in 2011 and bought a pizza or something with it, so now we hate

[Zach Gray @zachgray_io]

@eed3si9n There's a grpc interface which is preferred, http is limited and we tend to see better performance over grpc. This also means you can generate most of the code which is nice.

personally I'd prefer to see wider use of bazel, but that said, i could probably impl this api for you

[Zach Gray @zachgray_io]

@eed3si9n There's been a unification effort and now just one rule set which works rather well for local dev at large scale in the companies which have deployed it, beating this may be a tall order. Curious if @posco has anything to add here though

[Zach Gray @zachgray_io]

@eed3si9n regarding shared cache (most important feature imo): there's a remote cache/exec api published by bazel which many build tools adopt. If you impl. this api, you could make use of existing remote cache solutions, there's one OSS solution, and we provide a managed saas
