Re:Detekt – A static code analyzer for Kotlin on Thursday July 24, 2025 @09:18AM (#44670342)
I agree, but I can strongly recommend Claude Code with the Intellij plugin. Actually works pretty great for kotlin!

And, JetBrains finally started working on an open language server. It's not perfect but it makes it bearable to at least edit Kotlin in Cursor/VS Code.

majority, as in >50%? is this really true?

I'd love to know more. What are these businesses and are people using them to finance their living in NA/Europe?

>So you think the chance of human beings to come up with 4 random words is pretty low?

I've always wondered how effective the random words thing is. sure, there are like 100k english words in current use according to google, but it seems like a list of the most common few hundred of those words would crack a lot of passwords.

Re:Justice at Spotify on Tuesday March 16, 2021 @10:42AM (#26477325)
While I agree more money should be sent towards small artists and I really hate to see myself defending a giant tech company, the demands of "x per stream" always makes me a bit confused.

Since spotify already pay out the vast majority of their revenue, there is not really much more room for increase there, at best 5-10% which likely wouldn't settle the case.

Reasonable suggestions would be that either: 1. labels should get less, 2. top artists should get less or 3. consumers should pay more.

Or am I missing something?

yes, they also care about privacy so they added multiple layers of encryption.
