That was exactly was I was going to write:
It has not to be bifocals, I would go for a 3 zone progressive lense.

Now I want the text message app to be changed so that I can set the font for specific incoming phone messages so only those numbers that send codes uses the larger font.
|
|
|
|
|
On my android devices, reading text messages I can simply pinch to change the font size. Pinch out, read the number, pinch back in ready for next time. Too easy.

I tried to do it as described in a search and it didn't zoom in our out on my Motorola android phone. I can zoom in and out on pictures though.

Varifocals: I use them so I can see road signs and read the display on the dashboard.
They can take a bit of getting used to, but you won't go back. I used to have three pairs of glasses: distance, computer, and reading - but I was always wearing the wrong ones ...

I guess I'd need glasses that are neutral up close, I can see fine from 1 foot out or so.

Talk to your optician - they can do that!
The bottom bit is "close up" and can be any level of zoom, including zero.

On my Moto G5s when I open the text history I can pinch to zoom the text in/out.

I have vari-focal and the glasses still fly off and on my face all day long.
One advantage though is that it gives my nose a break.

It sounds like you could use bifocals or progressives, even if you're a little "young" for them as I am.
I have progressives because I work with electronics regularly, and I'd have to take my glasses off and on to see the silkscreens or solder.
They are a lifesaver. Maybe consider it.

I got my eyes lasered 18 years ago to leave glasses for long dinstance behind me (miopy)
I am now getting glasses back for near and PC distance. I need a "work place" glasses but I am taking a progressive"room" glasses with 3 zones.
Bottom is for near, center from 50 cm to 2-3 meters and top is for up to 12 meters. (To avoid having to take them out when someone gets into the room, or looking to things in the other corner).
Outdoors, driving and so on... I don't need them

That's definitely one thing the iPhone does well: it will offer to auto-fill the code when it receives the text message. No need to copy and paste, or try to remember the code.

Just got a request to update my Tiny_TTF library in LVGL to support 9.0 features in the dev branch.
Alright, so I set up a build and test environment.
Whoops, they've completely broken the API. I can't even get anything to compile. The docs don't reflect the latest changes.
Why even ask me to do this if you're not prepared? Am I to the learn the API telepathically?
I don't have time for this.

Well.. you can always reject the PR! ^_^
And better yet, message them?!

I've messaged them. I'm waiting on a response. It's just frustrating that they'd ask for something they're totally not prepared for. I guess maybe I expect a lot? Oh well. I'm already over it. It was just irritating in the moment.

Well.. a good PR is supposed to compile fine!
But not all PRs are good PR!
|
|
|

It wasn't the PR that didn't compile, but my attempt at using it.
It's a library. But they've changed the API and haven't documented the changes yet so I can't use it.
The previous way of using it does not compile.

just be honest and state the request to upgrade will be delayed.

I did.
It was just a lil rant. I was over it quickly. Writing it out helped.

Reminds me of the Java 1 to Java 2 update, sometime in 1997/98. From what I remember, Java 2 made sure that most of Java 1 code did not work. That was the time I learnt a new word - 'deprecated'. There was so much frustration in my office at that time.

keep that in mind with your own docs.

I have created many interfaces to non-trivial systems. I have just gotten used to it.
I remember one case where the certification problem for a credit card processor was settled between two of their techs (not me) by one of them declaring that the account was theirs so I would just need to follow what they said and not the other tech.
