I decided not to pressure myself into posting weekly if the updates don’t really make sense. Here goes for the past 2 weeks’ updates.
2025 - Week 06
Last week-end was rough and threw me for a loop. I wasn’t in the mood of publishing a weekly update. Stuff still happened thought!
Notes about In App Purchase validation on Android
I mentioned in an earlier post that I’d started dabbling with Android. This incredible journey brought me to the realm of in-app purchase validation which is part of what the Google Cloud Platform offers. This is ideal if you already use one of the dozen services they provide, like BigQuery and such. In my case, all I was looking for was a way to validate my purchases, so I found the documentation a little bit overwhelming and got lost quite a few times. Since nearly broke my sanity, I figured I would share what I’ve learned.
2025 - Week 04
- 🧶 My friend finally received the gift I built for him as part of a Secret Santa, you can see the pictures on my mastodon profile. I’ve tackled a few projects like this in 2024 and it’s been stimulating, although just like programming or I guess any other activity, I drastically underestimated the amount of time it took me.
2025 - Week 03
In 2023, I decided to start writing weekly notes and I ended up posting only 2. I’m hoping to do better this year, without putting too much pressure on myself either.
