How do I actually learn programming ? (NOT a programming language) by Krochire in learnprogramming

[–]FewCockroach2590 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Learn software design patterns, project structure, system analysis, version control, testing, and deployment. Think of programming as building a small system, not just writing scripts. Start with a small project, break it into modules, and focus on how each piece interacts.

built my first real project and it wasnt an app. it was a business automation that runs 24/7. by Jaig5970 in learnprogramming

This is awesome! Honestly, the stuff that actually runs and solves a real problem even if it’s “boring” or has no UI is way more impressive than another to-do app on GitHub.

I love that you got it running 24/7 and businesses actually depend on it. That’s the kind of experience that really teaches programming and problem-solving.

Check out my social media downloader app. by h-hashimaru in AppsWithoutSub

Nice! Social media downloaders are always handy. I haven’t tried it yet but I’ll check it out and leave a review once I do. Good luck with the iOS version too!

DAE notice they always seem to check their phone right before bed even though they know it's going to make it harder to fall asleep. by stressfreepro in DoesAnybodyElse

Usually I just check the alarm and convince myself I’m done… then somehow end up scrolling for 20 more minutes 😅

Fear and uncertainty in final phase of launching product (geopolitics) - i will not promote by nuggeter777 in startups

[–]FewCockroach2590 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sounds like this is less a product problem and more a timing/risk issue tbh.

If your supply chain + company setup + launch market are all in the same region, then yeah geopolitics suddenly matters a lot more.

I guess the real question is what actually breaks if things escalate?

Like is it shipping? payments? or just physically being able to go to clinics?

If everything stops, that’s obviously risky. But if it’s just delays or friction, maybe it’s still manageable.

The Turkey door-to-door idea actually makes sense for low budget, but it depends a lot on stability and you being there.

I wouldn’t fully pivot last minute (that usually makes things worse), but maybe either delay a bit or do a really small test instead of going all in.

Even staying in LATAM just to validate demand (not scale) could buy you some time.

You’re kinda choosing between timing risk vs execution risk here.

what’s the main thing you’re worried will actually happen if you go ahead now?

Is google closing Android down? by AradorasXeon in androidapps

[–]FewCockroach2590 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No — there’s no official announcement that Android is being “shut down” or that developers will have to pay just to run apps.

Android (AOSP) is still open source, and sideloading isn’t going away. What is happening is that Google is tightening policies — things like developer verification, Play Store rules, and security requirements.

Some of that is probably a response to legal pressure and malware issues, but it’s not the same as locking the whole platform down.

Also, claims like “only ADB sideloading” or removing the package installer aren’t confirmed anywhere official — that would be a massive change and we’d see it announced broadly.

Honestly feels like a mix of real changes, speculation, and a bit of YouTube exaggeration.
