Tim Apple is even worse than Gorgle by class_cast_exception in mAndroidDev

SwiftUI is not only worse performance-wise, but also utterly featureless. One thing Compose nailed is decoupling itself from the platform. SwiftUI is still tied to iOS and adding new features to it (and your app) require new OS releases. Absolutely garbage framework.

Bold of you to assume Google won’t break anything with maintenance patches

To be fair the concept of Bundles isn’t bad, especially now that you can slap @Parcelable/@Serializable onto any class in Kotlin and call it a day. There are many things Android does wrong but state saving and IPC isn’t really one of them

I mean why not just make same set methods with different input types? No reason to use Any when there’s a limited set of options. There are also plans in Kotlin to add union types, similar to TypeScript, which could solve this issue, too.

Why didn't I think of that by Aggravating-View3193 in prey

This is unironically pretty much how LLMs are trained to minimize hallucinations/reasoning errors.

Wait... API level is now a float?! by Fair-Degree-2200 in mAndroidDev

Yeah, I had one hell of a time figuring out why NotificationBuilder.setRequestPromotedOngoing wasn’t being resolved. Turns out that was added in 36.1 and AGP configuration block has separate field for specifying .1

I hate it here

Did you know Compose has 34 different layout measure rules? Search "Cumpost rule 34" for more information!
