So... this was a fun compiler bug: the D8 Java to DEX compiler (part of the Android toolchain) eliminated a redundant field load if running the class's static initialiser was known to be free of side effects, which ended up accidentally depending on the sharding of the input, which is dependent on the number of CPU cores used during the build.
issuetracker.google.com/issues…
I made a small example to illustrate why this optimisation is only valid when the class initialiser doesn't have side effects (or the initialiser is guaranteed to have run already, which is the case for a base class of the current one):

Notice how the cryptotechbro edgelord response to problems is to colonise space and go to Mars.
So... migration.
Their immediate, knee jerk intuitive reaction to big problems in their environment is to migrate.
Yet hate migrants.
Hmm, interesting.
»Zu den folgenschwersten Irrtümern gehörte bisher, daß man der Jugend alles sie anscheinend Gefährdende fernhalten wollte. Nein, nahebringen muß man es ihr, damit sie richtig sehen und richtig denken lernt. […] Mit der Muttermilch sollen sie es elnsaugen: Fortschritt muß sich zu allererst auf dem Gebiet der *Liebe* bemerkbar machen, auf dem Felde der verkrüppelten Menschenliebe.«

@SamantazFox I try my best, but unfortunately forget it far too often, apologies! Working on it – but as usual, I cannot promise what I'm not sure being able to fulfill ("will do so every time now")…
That said: thanks for your nudging me. It helps me to improve knowing there are people I'd help with that. And not "a vague group", but *specific* people. So yeah, keep nudging 😉

Teaching how to create sketchnotes is one of my big passions, but nothing compares the joy when seeing others thrive with it! @acbdev created a sketchnote for my talk from this week, and I couldn’t be any prouder. I mean look at it!!! Thank you so much Anna ❤️ I love it!

"Dear Colton Scott,
This email is to confirm that your [...] password has been reset."
Ok Colton, are you good now? Maybe using my email address for that service was not the best idea.
I got the domain I'm using for my mails "used" a couple of years ago, so it was previously registered by another person.
There was a Paypal account tied to it and I constantly got the password reset mails until I disabled the address tied to the account.
This was annoying, especially since I had no idea how to get in touch with the owner.
Everyone should read the brilliant @emptywheel 's new piece on Musk and X/Twitter. We know what he has done over there is bad, but the depths of the criminal depravity can only be described as horrific. Empywheel has been on the case for over a decade, and has done a great job of laying it out here:

Elon Musk's Machine for Fascism: A One-Stop Shop for Disinformation and Violence - emptywheel
Elon Musk, the richest man in the world, one of Trump's most gleeful supporters, has set up a one-stop shop: Joining false claims about the election with networks of fascists who'll take to the streets.emptywheel
"Jezz Bezos and Elon Musk emit more carbon pollution in 90 minutes than the average human does in their entire life."
...
“Half of the world’s emissions come from the richest 10% of people. The wealthiest 1% by income account for 16% of emissions, which is more than the poorest two-thirds of people in the world,”

“Oxfam identified 23 superyachts owned by 18 billionaires and estimates the average annual carbon footprint of each of these yachts to be 5,672 tonnes, which is more than three times the emissions of the #billionaires’ private jets... This is equivalent to 860 years of emissions for the average person in the world, and 5,600 times the average of someone in the global poorest 50%.”
