ActivityResultContracts.TakePicture() requires creating and saving an empty file ahead. How do you delete it?

I use ActivityResultContracts.TakePicture()t otake images. Since its machenism, I have to create a empty file ahead. I did this. Common method in docs. ``` val dUri = if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT > 28) { MediaStore.Images.Media.getContentUri(MediaStore.VOLUME_EXTERNAL_PRIMARY) } else {...

Is this a good and common practice, to achieve similar outcome as Swift's "guard let" and avoid safe call operator?

In Swift, we can use "guard let", to avoid safe call operator (?.) class A { func work() { } } func test(_ a: A?) { guard let a = a else { return } a.work() } I was wondering, is the following a good and common practice, if I want to achieve similar outcome as Swift's "guard let"? class A { fun ...

Real car names in my quiz app

I read that I can't use any real car name/shape/logo in any form in any game, but if that game is a quiz game, or a recognition game could I use them? If not, there's a method to use them without paying too much or don't pay at all and don't get sued? submitted by /u/Highwall2740 link ...

Seriously, why there isn't an easy way to implement a timezone picker UI?

I needed to do a simple time zone selector, but there just isn't an easy way to do it apart from showing a 500-items-long TimeZone.getAvailableIDs() at the user in a dropdown. I had wanted something like this, but for Android, and it just doesn't seem to exist. So I need to do my own fuzzy text...
