Java
I’m not a fan of Java, never have been. This could be because of a traumatic experience with it - before getting a job with Facilita load testing software for Littlewoods, I had to cram it in a weekend along with learning BNF, and then spend months hacking machine-generated spew into Oracle Forms automation code that were recorded from its traces. Or maybe it’s because it’s the natural language of FizzBuzz Enterprise Edition, or that I feel like a downtrodden verb in the Kingdom of Nouns.
But I still wrote some stuff in it anyway, mostly a few Android apps that are no longer used by anyone.
- 🖼️ Anonypic - Upload images to the now defunct BayImg image host.
- 🎤 Microphone - Use your Android device as a microphone.
- ☎️ Missed Call Mailer - Get an email when you miss a call, for call center workers.
- 🌦️ Rainwatch - Maps from the BBC showing the only weather British people care about.
- ✏️ SVG Renderer - Render an SVG file on your phone.
