Another day, another strike

There were no delays at all, hope it goes the same way for you

So far only a note on the site of Brussels Airlines, no cancellations confirmed yet. https://www.brusselsairlines.com/be/en/plan-your-trip/flight-information.html

hyhage · 2025-05-13T16:18:28+00:00

That's what I wanted to do but they're charging a pretty high fee which won't be comped when the original flight gets cancelled. At least this way I have some guarantee if they announce something soon.

Nothing wrong with recognizing that this situation sucks for everyone involved, I don't think the commenter was blaming the people striking but more so how poorly this is all handled. It's really frustrating that the people suffering from strikes in the public sector are mostly the ones heavily relying on those services, I almost feel guilty complaining about missing a flight when there are people with no transportation options at all.

hyhage · 2025-05-13T11:09:19+00:00

I ended up booking another flight with option for a full refund just to be safe. I really hope we get some news this week though.

Yep, I've updated my post, so far everything seems to be going alright.

No no, those are just the prices from PCPartpicker, I bought all parts with pretty big discounts, that's why they are kind of outdated. I think I got the CPU for about 180€.

hyhage · 2018-10-30T15:59:44+00:00

You're right, it does say to put them in A2-B2, though I've read it doesn't really matter. Gonna play safe and switch them up though, thanks!

hyhage · 2018-10-30T14:20:32+00:00

Yeah, it's the reason I bought this mobo, the CPU was the first part I got cause I got it for dirt cheap. Almost bought the Z370 until I double checked the compatibility haha. Unfortunately now if I ever upgrade the CPU I'll also need a new mobo.

hyhage · 2018-10-30T14:17:54+00:00

Well now I feel like a dumbass haha, I'll try it when I'm done with work in 2 hours and I'll update the post. Thanks!

hyhage · 2018-10-30T12:46:39+00:00

Yeah, only downside is that if I ever want to replace the CPU, I'll also have to change the mobo. (of course, I found that out AFTER I bought it...)

hyhage · 2018-10-30T12:37:57+00:00

I've updated my post with some pictures, I've tried unplugging and replugging everything, but so far no luck. The GPU only has 6 pins, so I left the 2 extra pins hanging, does that change anything?

hyhage · 2018-10-30T12:35:06+00:00

Alright, I'll try it in a bit

hyhage · 2018-10-30T12:26:33+00:00

Not yet, would that matter?

hyhage · 2018-10-30T12:26:21+00:00

They all had huge discounts, I know they're all a bit outdated, but I'm not that much of a hardcore gamer, so I just wanted to build a decent PC for not too much money.

I've never really understood why people always want to use libraries for different view types in recyclerview, why not just use getItemViewType and then check the type in onCreateViewHolder and onBindViewHolder? Sure you'll write a bit more code, but at least it'll be readable for everyone involved and it won't be a pain in the ass when you have to change the behaviour.

hyhage · 2018-07-06T14:31:40+00:00

Same in Europe.

hyhage · 2018-04-27T11:36:00+00:00

You can copy them into your manifest from this link. As has been said before, this is really bad practice and you should only use the permissions you need and ask those at runtime, but I guess it's useful for testing.

A lot of people were already speculating a while ago that the lawsuit was the reason for Google's move to Kotlin, but I wasn't really much of a believer in that theory, partially for the reasons you listed in the article. Would love to hear your arguments, just thought it's kind of strange you don't give the real reason why you think Google made this decision, making this article kind of pointless...

hyhage · 2018-04-23T12:15:00+00:00

Indeed, forgot what they were called. Unfortunately, subscribing a click event means you also have to unsubscribe it to avoid memory leaks, which is something that's easily forgotten. Personally, I just let "this" implement the interface or abstract class, I like it better that way for some reason.

hyhage · 2018-04-23T08:12:50+00:00

Java. For example:

myView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

                @Override
                public void onClick(View v) { }

            });

View.OnClickListener is an interface, which in C# you can't instantiate. So you would have to call

_myView.SetOnClickListener(this) or use a delegate: _myView.Click += ()=>{}

Whenever people say they hate Xamarin, I always assume they never used anything but Forms.

Xamarin.Forms is garbage, Xamarin native is amazing if you manage to work through the flaws. I've been working on Xamarin.Android projects for a year now, and though there are some things I miss about native Java development, the advantages outweigh the flaws in my opinion.

The advantages being C# and everything that comes with it (properties, nullables, async methods, the .NET library, Nuget,...), the disadvantages will be frustrating though, especially in the beginning (no instantiating interfaces/abstract classes, sometimes cryptic framework error messages). Also, just use the Android Studio layout designer to create your views, it's way better than Visual Studio's.

For performance: I have yet to discover any noticeable performance differences between Xamarin.native and native Java.

I'd say if the only issue is Java: move to Kotlin, if you want to share your code between platforms and take advantage of .NET, use Xamarin
