  • The interoperability is both a blessing and a curse imo since it let us half-ass the integration by leaving a bunch of Java code unconverted. I could start refactoring everything but then my team would stop reviewing my PRs due to the diff size (and then my manager would eventually find out that I’ve been using up work time doing this instead of shipping features during crunch week).

    I really much prefer Kotlin to Java. I just wish my team had actually had a commitment to it instead of just sorta using it with no migration plan.









  • Building and running a multiplayer game on one might be cool. Websocket is nice for making simpler real-time games for the browser. Godot also has multiplayer networking support but I’ve never tried it before.

    You do have to open up the Pi to the public Internet though to get any people to play. I use Tailscale Funnel but there are probably also other tunneling solutions







  • Yeah we have a test stage where everything is mixed together. It’s just that we directly promote that test stage to prod so we can’t really separate all the features back out for prod without cherry-picking. The other idea we came up with was just letting test flow to prod and locking WIP stuff behind feature flags. I don’t think the security people would like that idea very much though…
