Der Auftritt von Alice Weidel in #Magdeburg war keine Trauerrede, sondern eine von Hass und Hetze erfüllte Wahlkampf-Propaganda und eine Bewerbung für "Wer wird Hassprediger?" Dabei unterschlägt sie, dass der Täter AfD-Anhänger ist! Weidel wird NIE Kanzlerin #WirSindMehr #PIRATEN

Ah ok, so I see we're really wedging that dude into the "migrant terrorist" despite the fact that online he was singing from one of the most German far-right hymnsheets. He's been here 18 years. He was parroting AfD lines about Merkel and Islam. Sorry chaps, but this one belongs to you. 🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪

#AndroidDev, @androidfaithful.com at @droidcon.bsky.social NYC interview with @swank.ca is up! Hopefully not too much fan girling, but Jesse has been one of my Android heroes forever, & he has a lot to say about what I think is the spirit of the Android dev fam. 🫶 youtu.be/_6YKyjKfWh0

Using JSON in Firebase Remote Config feels so uncomfortable for me, in theory it's OK, it's even in the documentation, but am I the only one that thinks this is crazy?

People saying, "now MAGA have nobody else to blame" clearly haven't understood MAGA.
