I did a bootcamp for Java, and lucked into a junior Android dev role, and man, I’ve really grown to love Kotlin. It really does have all the things I liked about Java, like type safety, but it’s so much more concise. It was pretty confusing at first, a lot of Kotlin is just syntactic sugar, and you kinda need to know what Kotlin is cutting out to make sense of things. But once I got into it, it just feels so much faster and expressive than Java.

I’m really happy when I see Kotlin being adopted outside of Android, like in backend services and such. But that rarely happens.

As a former Pizza Hut/Papa John’s/Marco’s/Hungry Howie’s driver, totally fine with this. Food delivery drivers are typically underpaid, especially considering how expensive cars are.

I kinda want to say that delivery services are charging what delivery should cost to compensate drivers fairly, but I don’t know how much of the customer pays go to the drivers and how much the delivery service keeps. I wouldn’t mind the upcharge on menu items if the driver got paid well.

Seconding this. I like good food, sure. I like bad food too, and I don’t care what other people think about that.
