Inspired by this article, I built a small tool in Compose Desktop to more easily iterate through building fancy mesh gradients from @sinasamaki's Modifier recipe! Code is here https://t.co/pd5wFk8cN0 with the code export assuming you are using the same Modifier recipe
✨ New article out now! Learn how to animate mesh gradients in #JetpackCompose

Watch Gemini in @AndroidStudio Agent Mode in action ⬇️
"I need to..." ➡️ Agent Mode handles it. Stop imagining and see it. Tor Norbye demos how Agent Mode takes a natural language goal and executes changes across your project. This is a productivity boost you have to see → https://t.co/Q0NkLApX7l

On Saturday, Trump said that @sethmeyers criticizing him is “probably illegal.” So, today, I tried to pass a simple resolution stating that criticizing the president isn’t illegal. Republicans objected. It’s absurd. There’s no Trump exception to the First Amendment.

Blessed to have been able to been at the Zohran Mamdani event last night in Brooklyn with the Zeteo team, witnessing history being made. Politics aside, to watch a fellow Muslim immigrant & leftist defy the critics, haters & bigots, & pull this off, was, genuinely, inspiring.

I'm geniunely curious to see if IDE/coding UX moves beyond files and folders as the primary and preferred navigation for a project. It's been tried dozens of times over decades, but just maybe it's different this time.

Mamdani is already getting the criminals out of NYC!
Sadly it seems that my family and I will be departing the city I’ve called home my entire life. NYC will become a very dangerous place to live in if we elect mayor Mamdani and that is a risk I am unwilling to take now that I want to start growing my family.

Us devs complain when the AI coding tool costs $20/mo but then drops to lower models when you use it too much Complain when it’s $200/mo but it still runs out when you use it too much Complain when it’s free but data used for training Complain when it’s free but with ads…

Mamdani owned that interview so hard and directly that they will do anything to smear even Fox coverage, because unfortunately for them, all their constituents watched it, and probably thought "wait I like can't disagree with his positions because they make sense?!"
Leavitt: "The Democrat Party's main constituency is made up of Hamas terrorists, illegal aliens, and violent criminals."

The ability to just tell the IDE to "add padding" or "change a color" without digging through code is a huge workflow improvement. This is one of those features you'll quickly wonder how you lived without.
