Gradle 9.0.0

Just when I was bored and starting to feel discouraged and depressed, Gradle Inc. released a major update to its open-source build tool.

I'm not sure yet whether this is a good thing or a bad thing.

I use the tool in dozens of projects, most of which I keep up-to-date, so even the patch releases of Gradle are major events for me.

I recently tested one of the release candidates, and a lot of things didn't work, so I suspect the transition to Gradle v9 will require considerable effort on my part.

But at least it's something to distract me from my other problems.

bc i have no concept of what im capable of i like objective measures that can represented by a percentage or whatever number - so i graded myself on each section of murdle vol. 1

here's how i did;

elementary - 25/25 (100%)

for the first part i graded a bit differently than the rest bc i didn't know there would be more suspect and things to keep track. hindsight is 20/20. regardless, i did this section as pass or fail. all were correct or i failed.

occult medium - 23.5/25 (94%)

for this section grading was a bit for complicated. each murdle was 2 parts for a point. if all answers were correct it was a full point. if 2 correct it was half. 1 or 0 and it was no point.

hard boiled - 25/25 (100%)

for this section and impossible, each point for a murdle is four parts. +.25 for each correct answer.

if i got the person wrong, but 2-3 of the details correct under the right suspect then i would grade according to that (allowing for .5 or .75 max, otherwise it just defaulted to the answer i got.)

impossible - 20/25 (80%)

see hard boiled for grading explanation.

total grade for the book was 93.5%

i struggled with the lying parts :P

Note on building applications

Soo I am getting back into Android, its been a long, long, long time. While trying to get re-acquainted with F-Droid app submitting procedures some dude told me to start using Gradle. The old process of building Android apps is deprecated.

I started to get acquainted with Gradle. So I learn, its a programing language itself. And get this. It considers a project as a construct.

The point. Here I am claiming things like executables and even documentation should be thought of as constructs. All this time, I am thinking I am alone in this. Well, not really. Gradle did something similar.

The difference is that they came up with this via a necessity point of view. I come from a theoretical point of view.

🤔 I didn't consider the build process, I guess I should.

The main take away: When you think of things as constructs, you can then make use of them in programming languages AND you might be able to represent them graphically. The reason I needed to think of executables as constructs was to be able to represent them in GUI form. I needed to think of documentation as constructs to be able to tightly integrate it to source code. I should also look into the build process and integrate that into SavageGardens. Gradle sees projects as constructs to be able to use programming languages to manage the build process.

🤔 Representing code in GUI form. <- that's furture right there.
