ITT: Programmers that singlehandedly shaped their entire field/industry

Pic related is basically responsible for almost all standard android libraries including http networking, dependency injection, logging... you name it.

Dude is so influential google literally straight up adopts his libraries and makes them standard lmao
>>
>>103223683
Back to pol with you
Also android is basically the only non cucked part of google simply because it's not entirely in googles control
>>
>>103223618
His work is all shit, isn't it?

>>103224242
No it's not, he's genuinely good and has no haters. He's also not super opinionated, accepts improvements and is willing to discuss things unlike some other certain devs
>>
>>103224305
That's surprising, especially for an android API. Now tell him to provide native APIs instead of java trash.
>>
>>103224360
He does tho
>>
as much as he is a faggot and a nocoder, objectively speaking few people have been as influential as Uncle Bob in regards to software engineering practices. for better or worse he belongs in this thread.
>>
>>103223618
> all standard android libraries
Am I supposed to be simping this guy only because he made a stinking pile of curryniggery?
Jesus Christ, fuck Poodroid with a spiked rake.
>>
>>103227047
Post GitHub right now.
>>
>>103224305
Sounds like a nice dude. Maybe more people would talk about him if he had more interesting opinions and was more of an asshole
>>
>>103227854
I think he has enough people to talk to kek
Dude has like 70k followers on GitHub alone and that's not by belonging to some meme ai startup or widely publicised project, but simply by being this involved in android projects and libraries
>>
>>103225509
Last I checked all native android APIs were pure fucking garbage, and often just wrappers around JNI. But it was a while ago. Android was Java-first.
>>
>>103223618
so this is the man we should hate?
>>
>>103227047
>>103227727 here, before you post your nocoder profile with no commits before, feel free to judge mine:

that tranny is being pretty... cocky about his github
>>
>>103223618
So is this guy the one who removed nfs from android? If so I hate him and no contribution he's done offsets that
>>
>>103228057
No, that was google
>>
>>103224242
To be fair Google wanted to ship something ASAP and support a gorillion amount of trash bin hardware. Impossible to make something good under such conditions.
>>
Jake Wharton is the patron saint of Android development. I think he kindof resents it, though. He's a good enough dude. Met him at a conference. His stuff definitely shaped the way I think about libraries and modular code.
Wish I was as good as he was.

God i fucking hate zoomers so much
>>
>>103231134
itt is older than 4chan and reddit (and has been used on 4chan since the beginning)
>>
>>103231134
>using the reddit mark to end sentences
>>
>>103230300
I mean I'd hate being worshipped too desu
>>
>>103223618
>>103230300
Can you link API docs for things he got particularly right?
