jakewharton.com's Issues

Noscript tags to link videos and slides

Surface atom feed somewhere visually

Better metadata for blog posts

When posted to twitter and reddit it has no image and the Post: prefix kinda sucks

Remove Google analytics

Move hosting somewhere that provides server-side analytics

feed.xml should work like atom.xml

We handle external blog posts differently...

"JW" favicon

also high-res version for Chrome: https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2014/11/Support-for-theme-color-in-Chrome-39-for-Android?hl=en

Social sharing links?

But, like, ones that are not JS and privacy disasters

Backfill / mirror external blog posts

From Square Corner. Maybe one on the Android Developer Blog?

For archival purposes

Add cashapp post

https://cashapp.github.io/2020-08-19/wire-support-for-swift-part-1

Change presentation URL structure

/{name}-{event} with each slugified.

Provide redirects for old links
Do not link future presentations as the name won't be set yet.
Update to new URL structure

Archive blog posts

Those which are no longer super relevant (i.e., ABS posts) but should still be archived

Unified content view

Merge posts, talks, and podcasts into one timeline. Not sure if useful

Normalize blog post title casing

Right now it's a mix of title and sentence case. Pick one, update others.

Disable pre scrolling for print layout

Compile-time check for empty/broken links

I leave empty links a lot and sometimes forget to circle back and fill them out

Create RSS Feeds For Blog Tags

Move to Netlify

Advantages:

Faster deploy
Can use actual HTTP redirects (e.g., feed.xml to atom.xml)
Can insert headers to block Google's FloC bullshit

Make YouTube embeds responsive.

http://embedresponsively.com/

Reduce margins on phones

Wasted space on small screens. Should be halved for 360px or whatever the breakpoint for phones is

Update Square Corner posts from medium to new blog

Good riddance

Link in "D8 Library Desugaring" post now "dead"

The post "D8 Library Desugaring" contains the following text:

For now the best list of backported types is in the Android Studio preview features and the best list of backported APIs on existing types are […]

The preview features page no longer contains the relevant information. Maybe you could point to this page instead:

https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/gradle-plugin#j8-library-desugaring

Chrome toolbar and status bar coloring.

I think these are meta tags.

Hosted presentations page.

Archive of event, date, location, topic, description, slides (embedded), video (YT or Parleys, embedded).

Code samples look weird

The background only covers the text, not the whole div. Might be a problem with rouge highlighting library.

See image here

Line spacing

Woke up hating the line spacing. Feels cramped. Needs another pixel or something.

Blog series

Some kind of mechanism for organizing series of posts such as the D8/R8 posts.

Footnotes should be below signature paragraph

Not sure this is possible with CSS only. Would be nice if markdown let us position the footnotes outside the content.

Gradle best practices in KMP Compose post

https://jakewharton.com/multiplatform-compose-and-gradle-module-metadata-abuse/

https://github.com/JakeWharton/jakewharton.com/blame/gh-pages/_posts/2021-11-04-multiplatform-compose-and-gradle-module-metadata-abuse.md#L199

I noticed that in

tasks.named("generateMetadataFileForKotlinMultiplatformPublication").configure

you didn't declare the 4 implicit inputs to the task. This might cause up to date issues if the version changes or the text files change. I'm almost certain that in your real project you actually did do that, but ommited those 4 lines for brevity. If that's the case, would you add those in, just because people might copy-paste this as coming from a "authorative source" and introduce problems in their own builds.

Happy to PR if you accept the suggestion.
