Whoops, right, that worked. Thanks, all! I had to specify the Kotlin version specifically in Gradle:

dependencies {
    compile "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib-jdk8:$kotlin_version"
}

...which I didn't have to do before, since the Kotlin plugin added the version automatically. Is there a way to include the implicit version from the plugin when uploading, or does it need to be explicit (like this)?

Well a gradle build should work outside of Idea too, so no that's not possible.

I just configured my hot corner for that: move the cursor in the upper right corner and it automatically locks

Just found an company internal API littered with

Optional

fields. So glad I'm only visiting this part of the code.

@elect What? Do you mean something like

a!! + b

? Did that ever not work?

apparently

System.getenv("TRAVIS") != "true"

Any Gnu/Linux user here that has had problem with external speakers making the sound settings rapidly switching between line out and headphones? 😄

Hi guys, how are you all? It’s been a long time since I was here the last time! (2015 maybe)!

will anybody from the Kotlin team be at https://info.jetbrains.com/Catching-up-with-JetBrains-Rider-Munich-2018.html? My colleague and I are thinking about going.

Does anyone has any prediction (shocked announcement was Kotlin in 2017) for Google I/O 2018 ?

Okay, seriously, Dart 2?! Dart 2… medium.com/dartlang/announcing-dart-2-80ba01f43b6

My android (which is ancient, what was it called before pixel? The one without the extra crapware - I think it was version 4 that I have) continues to be a very smooth enjoyable experience.

Angular 1 was great but from what I've heard, it's degraded quite a bit since then, especially since the switch to TypeScript

Currying Partial application perhaps?

Does anyone know if there has been any talks about expanding Anko for iOS, or creating a similar library for iOS?

Maybe Flutter will at some point get an HTML / XHTML / XML way of creating UIs GWT only got UI:Binder later on, was never a fan of the declarative way of building things, it's very hard to visualise what you're building when working that way

What sum of money would JetBrains be willing to pay to Slack for an unlimited-users license ?

Hah, I read the other day on reddit that someone's company won't let them use Kotlin because JetBrains is based in Prague which in an Eastern European country and therefore inherently unstable. Well not only is Czechia not in Eastern Europe but I would say most of JetBrains is in Russia anyways. Some people really need to look at a map sometimes. Anyways, who else is worried that Russia's secret agencies are implanting back doors into Kotlin? 😄

as far as kotlin is nice to use, they can use all the back doors they want

Dart is pretty well received internally, and having 100% control over the direction and toolchain means they can enact change in the language easier than they can say Java or Javascript

it's very slow though. You're probably better off on Stackoverflow… 😟

@edwardwongtl dart/flutter supports (or will support) calling platform-specific apis from dart. however, ui is completely portable.

isn't it much cheaper and easier to hire 2 native mobile devs (android/ios) than 1 dart dev who will definitely suffer with various flutter restrictions and workarounds? i mean in any case he will write platform specific code for both platforms. 2 happy devs vs 1 unhappy

Conflict is an immanent property of any reality, even if no merges involved 😉
