I've been in my career long enough that there are some things that I used to be exceptional at that I literally have no idea about now. It will never not be hilarious to me how long it takes me to debug any LAMP stack problem now - but I once taught some of the people who lead and maintain these things today.
(Cloudflare rules were obscuring a problem that Wordpress hid the error message of and tl;dr Apache uses an older version of PHP which was missing the XML extension. Got there eventually!)
Yo lo siento pero la movilización que estš habiendo para "mantener Android abierto" parte de una premisa falsa. Android no es abierto. Es propiedad de una empresa. Da igual lo accesible que sea, da igual que todo el código sea abierto. Si no estš en manos de una fundación sin šnimo de lucro como puedan ser la Fundación Apache, el W3C o similar, no deja de ser un producto.

here's an Apache #Tomcat #Java thing I'd never heard before and although a tech gave it as an excuse, I do wonder if it is true.

I'm looking for 12 testers using Play Store for an Android app I built with Claude AI:
Widekey Keyboard. Each key holds two characters. Tap once for the left, tap twice quickly for the right. (No autocorrect, no word prediction, no swipe typing.)
Intended for people who find standard touch keyboards on small screens imprecise.
Free, no ads, no data collection, Apache 2.0 open source.
Please send me a DM with your Android account email if you're interested.
🔧 Deploy via SGLang, vLLM, MLX, llamacpp with OpenAI-compatible API endpoints
