Gemma 4 is an exciting one for Android Developers: - 4x faster using up to 60% less battery than previous models - More capable at reasoning for chain-of-thought commands and conditional statements - Improved math skills - and so much more youtube.com/watch?v=iB5POKmX…
Excited to launch Gemma 4: the best open models in the world for their respective sizes. Available in 4 sizes that can be fine-tuned for your specific task: 31B dense for great raw performance, 26B MoE for low latency, and effective 2B & 4B for edge device use - happy building!

The Accessibility team at Twitter was one of the best teams I've ever worked with. Just last month @gerardkcohen and @RichardEKnowles were kind enough to speak at a Google-hosted event. They inspired the whole Android community to build more accessible apps.
Replying to @gerardkcohen
So, the Accessibility Experience Team at Twitter is no longer. We had so much more to do, but we worked hard! There aren't very many people that have had the opportunity to make such an important global platform like Twitter accessible, but we understood the mission.

i didn't know you could record gifs directly from the android emulator... i've been spending like 5 minutes each time recording videos through android studio and converting it to gifs on some random website.....

Back at Cal today to tell incoming freshmen how awesome computer science can be! Which, honestly, I would've never thought I'd be doing considering I got 5/100 on my first CS test.
