Install and Create Emulators using AVDMANAGER and SDKMANAGER

TL;DR

For generic skin emulator with default apis (without google apis):

List All System Images Available for Download: sdkmanager --list | grep system-images
Download Image: sdkmanager --install "system-images;android-29;default;x86"

Considerations to take when live streaming:

The following best practice observations apply when using a hardware-based encoder for live streaming to any platform:

Set the buffer size (-bufsize:v) equal to the target bitrate (-b:v). You want to ensure that you're encoding in CBR mode.
Set up the encoders as shown:

indylambda: Putting invokedynamic to work for Scala

Java 8 introduced lambdas to the Java language. While the design choices differ in many regards from Scala's functions, the underlying mechanics used to represent Java lambdas is flexible enough to be used as a target for the Scala compiler.

Lambdas in Java

Java does not have canonical heirarchy of generic function types (ala scala.FunctionN), but instead allows a lambda to be used as a shorthand for an anonymous implementation of an Functional Interface

Here's an example of creating a predicate that closes over one value:

Git Compression of Blobs and Packfiles.

Many users of Git are curious about the lack of delta compression at the object (blob) level when commits are first written. This efficiency is saved until the pack file is written. Loose objects are written in compressed, but non-delta format at the time of each commit.

A simple run though of a commit sequence with only the smallest change to the image (in uncompressed TIFF format to amplify the observable behavior) aids the understanding of this deferred and different approach efficiency.

The command sequence:

Create the repo:

When merging an operation O, there may be several operations scattered through the local history that are concurrent to O. We need to rearrange our history so that all of these concurrent operations are moved to the end of the history. Then we can transform O against each of these concurrent operations and append it to the end.

Say we're adding O a history with the following suffix. The operations surrounded by vertical bars are concurrent to O. Otherwise the operations causally precede O.

EO0 |EO1| EO2 EO3 |EO4| |EO5| EO6

We need to rearrange this history so it looks like this.
