Сегодня был первый день конференции #DotNext, пока в онлайне (но офлайн тоже будет, в Петербурге 27-го июня, я пойду). Конференция для разработчиков на .NET, в первую очередь C# и связанные технологии.
Особенно понравилась лекция про историю C#. Вот ниже схема, где стрелками обозначено влияние одного языка на другой в некоторых аспектах (хотя не во всех: например, Kotlin тоже взаимно повлиял на C#, скажем, датаклассы из него заимствованы, в C# это тип record).
Ещё я не знал, что C# создал Андерс Хейлсберг — тот самый, который в своё время сделал Delphi. Это удивительно. Я когда-то начинал свой путь разработки именно с Delphi, сделал на нём много первых шагов. А теперь вот пишу на C# от того же автора, круг замкнулся. Ещё Хейлсберг один из авторов TypeScript: в общем, умеет мужик в языки!
В ходе этой лекции было любопытно узнать или вспомнить, как всё-таки плохо во многих других языках с удобством совершенно типовых действий, начиная от обобщённого программирования и заканчивая ленивой обработкой или генерацией бесконечных множеств. Понятно, что человек ко всему привыкает, но переходить на другой язык после C# было бы болезненно, мне кажется. По крайней мере, для энтерпрайз разработки, где важна архитектура и статический анализ.
Завтра второй онлайн-день, посмотрим, что будет там.#dev
🤯F-Droid выражает протест против обязательной верификации всех разработчиков
Разработчики альтернативного магазина open-source приложений выражают обеспокоенность тем, что обязательная верификация для распространения приложений на устройствах, сертифицированных Google, негативно влияет на творчество.
Но у меня сразу ряд вопросов:
👉 Какие проблемы это создает для распространения через F-Droid?
👉 Исходный код и все авторы приложения из F-Droid известны
👉 Авторы гарантируют что софт настоящий и без трекинга, то в чем суть подтверждения авторства?
Официальное заявление можно найти тут

During out talks with F-Droid users at FOSDEM26 we were baffled to learn most were relieved that #Google has canceled their plans to lock-down #Android.
Why baffled? Because no such thing actually happened, the plans announced last August are still scheduled to take place. We see a battle of PR campaigns and whomever has the last post out remains in the media memory as the truth, and having journalists just copy/paste Google posts serves no one.
But Google said… Said what? That there’s a magical “advanced flow”? Did you see it? Did anyone experience it? When is it scheduled to be released? Was it part of Android 16 QPR2 in December? Of 16 QPR3 Beta 2.1 last week? Of Android 17 Beta 1? No? That’s the issue… As time marches on people were left with the impression that everything was done, fixed, Google “wasn’t evil” after all, this time, yay!
While we all have bad memories of “banners” as the dreaded ad delivery medium of the Internet, after FOSDEM we decided that we have to raise the issue back and have everyone, who cares about Android as an open platform, informed that we are running out of time until Google becomes the gate-keeper of all users devices.
Hence, the website and starting today our clients, with the updates of F-Droid and F-Droid Basic, feature a banner that reminds everyone how little time we have and how to voice their concerns to whatever local authority is able to understand the dangers of this path Android is led to.
We are not alone in our fight, IzzyOnDroid added a banner too, more #FDroid clients will add the warning banner soon and other app downloaders, like Obtainium, already have an in-app warning dialogue.

[email protected] - Drizzle in my repo today with 2 new apps. Most prominently:
Watomatic – to help those of you still stuck at WhatsApp to leave that s(t)inking ship without being afraid "nobody can find you": it sends auto-responses to everyone writing you, telling them you've left and where to look. So: no more excuses, here's your door! https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/apk/com.parishod.watomatic
Further running: SpaceXFollower (SpaceX events, facts, statistics) and Auxio, a nice music player, added yesterday.
Enjoy #foss#Android#apps with #fdroid!
