I've been working with Flutter for a little over 2 years nonstop. Before I started this project, knowing enough react, I experimented with react native, Expo, also quasar, capacitor, nativescript, and other cross-platform mobile solutions. Flutter/Dart was just nicer to deal with than everything else. I needed to work with C code too, and Flutter made it straightforward with FFI.

The developer experience was great and the Flutter team was very responsive with questions I asked.
Macbooks don't have 24 inch screens with 4.5K resolution.
Please do! That sounds super interesting
Apple Silicon MacBook's are actually a bit difficult to truly factory reset. In a divorce I ended up with an M1 MBP that was first set up using my ex-wife's AppleID, but was primarily my laptop. Her administrator account was deleted, my AppleID was shown in all the system setting menus that I could see in the operating system, and "FindMy" on her phone at least was not tracking its location.

Two years later I updated my login password and then promptly forgot the exact punctuation of the new password. I ended up getting completely locked out of the laptop with no self-service options to fix anything.

That day I learned that you have to boot into a special mode to truly factory reset, not just delete the administrator accounts with other AppleIDs. I was able to get Apple to remotely unlock the computer for me, but only because I could "prove" it was mine by sending them the original invoice slip from store.apple.com with my name, email, and the serial number of the laptop on it.

But that invoice slip is literally a piece of paper in a box, and you can't access it yourself after 18 months - I had to call into Apple support and get them to email me a new copy because it had been longer than 18 months.

If I had purchased the laptop from someone else on craigslist 2 years prior and then got locked out, I would be completely shit-out-of-luck, because I wouldn't be able to prove I truly owned it.
Man, if that website wants to accomplish anything whatsoever, they should really consider adding even the tiniest amount of relevant context.

> Reporting should be objective

Reporting cannot be objective. The most basic reason is the framing problem: deciding what facts about the world are relevant to the story being told. The things left in, the things left out. How much history do you include? How great is the geographic scope? Whose grievances matter, and whose do not? Every decision you are forced to make about such questions moves you, inch by millimeter, away from any conventional definition of "objective reporting".

Oh, machine learning, I was hoping it was about ML (Meta Language) compilers with insights on stuff like Ocaml or SML.
I think you absolutely on to something, but I wonder how much of this a shift in perception vs reality.

I agree the linear progression of school>College>good job seems a lot more cutthroat and inflexible. That said, it seems like there are still lots of alternative paths out there for smart motivated people- they just arent clearly paved.

I have a long time to think about it, but I'm not even sure if I will encourage my kids to go to college, for the reasons you outlined. They may be better off doing work that isnt readily outsourced. Much of this will depend on what the economy looks like in 15 years.

As it stands today, I'd be tempted to give my kid 150k to start a plumbing business instead of paying for college.

> There is a point of time there where the fastest way to reach an engineer was not to go through a tier one contract that you pay microsoft millions of dollars for, but instead to just open an issue on the GitHub. I doubt that’s the case anymore.

That’s still very much the case today, BUT you absolutely need to do your legwork beforehand (e.g. include a copypastable program that reproduces the problem and as thorough an analysis as you can do) otherwise your thread will go poorly… (and plenty of regulars in the dotnet repos aren’t exactly the forgiving type). Compare that to what you get with a Support contract: you can be a non-technical person in Sales or the C-Suite or whatever and they’ll hold-your-hand to guide you through the troubleshooting/diagnosis/repro process - and if the issue is an actual bug in MS’ code then at least you get your ticket’s fee/credits refunded.

———-

Unrelated-but-related: An LLM+multimodal “AI” would be fantastic for walking nontechnical users through the issue-reporting process. I’d wager the number-one problem in tech-support today is dealing with “It doesn’t work”-type tickets which necessitates having to interrogate the user/customer/victim to get the details out - but if an AI agent (with screen-reading abilities) handles that (without a single audible sigh or facepalm) then that’s a win for everyone.

i’m talking layout, paint, composite

you’re talking network

javascript, which i write every day and love, fundamentally can do what i’m talking about through shaders in webgl or webgpu but people generally reach for react, which is the performance bottleneck in the rendering loop i’m describing because javascript is fundamentally inefficient at graphics and why the technologies i’m referencing were implemented with javascript bindings in the first place.

i agree the network is important, but it is generally the last bit in a call stack for any given user interaction.

Why should we respect grumbling users? Why should we listen, or selectively stop listening when we’re annoyed? You’re not my real dad.

After all, being grumpy is fun. It also serves lots of needs - for the individual and for the community. Grumping is a soft way of expressing a perceived break of community norms and expectations, and it draws attention to the break. We have evolved emotions like this for a reason. “Negative” emotions like grumpiness exists to serve us and serve our tribes.

I agree, but now that I've been spending months working directly with people on kind of slow machines that occasionally present minor roadblocks to basic productivity, there is at least a little value derived from making periodic upgrades to your office or retail computers.

Most of the time that I've seen people encounter real problems, it's the result of overly arduous, or inconsistent software interfaces, rather than hardware, but it's not not worth re-investing in every half-decade or so.

If it's your personal computer, even as a layman, you'll be willing to deal with things like one might with an aging car, but if it's the computer you've been given to get work done on in front of customers, it's a different perspective. Some people will literally just stop showing up sometimes if tools aren't working for them, and they might be right to do so. Again though, it's tenuous how often this occurs for basic tasks on hardware that's within the decade.

> Most people don't realize how many apps written in Flutter they use daily, simply because it's impossible to tell.

Flutter implemented its "native" looking UI widgets by literally having teams of designers eyeball the native designs and reimplementing, starting from drawPixel. This can't be done on a volunteer basis alone. Many open source attempts have tried this route and failed because they don't have the sheer designer resources needed to get there.

They been building it before and still building and releasing with flutter so it's not like they don't have pipeline for that. And it was distributed compiled so nothing to compile for 3rd party users.
I'm pretty cynical about "prediction markets" supplanting polls. There are a lot more meta-games going on, especially if the "prediction" can somehow influence the odds of itself happening.

Only if the WiFi network is password-protected, which causes connections to be encrypted. Pretty much all WiFi is password-protected nowadays -- if a cafe wants to enable public access to their WiFi, they'll write the password on the wall -- but that only became the case after Firesheep and other sniffing tools drew attention to this issue around 2010. In the old days, there were plenty of networks with no password (and hence, no encryption) at all.

The GP specified "without cryptography", in reference to a counterfactual world where we weren't allowed to encrypt things.
> But the other path IS viable. You can move to [name any big city], get an education, get a decent job, paint your nails, treat women nicely and, if you ask me, have better relationships, better sex, better lives than were ever available to most men in the past.

I agree this is viable, but you have to understand that for heterosexual men they face a lot of day-to-day backlashes for this. You have to understand the vast majority of women will not consider a relationship with them. And they will suffer in their career as well. Lack of masculinity, or rather perceived masculinity, in men means lack of respect across the board.

Because progressivism has not focused on that, so we're still dealing with many decades old understanding of masculinity. Even extremely surface-level reimagining, such as painting nails, is fringe. And I think that really demonstrates the problem.

I mean, forget emotional intelligence or vulnerability. We're battling black nail polish. We haven't even begun to take a crack at the simplest, most surface level stuff. Let alone the deeper stuff.

I said this in another comment, but modern heterosexual men are in a strange position where they have to perfect the art of performing masculinity in most situations, and then leaving hints of progressivism where other's find it most convenient.

Ultimately, even the most progressive woman is looking for a man who is somewhat kind and maybe he can get away with painting his nails. But he must still be masculine, he must not cry very much if ever, and he must always be a low level of emotional labor. Women want to deal with things like grappling with the shame of dating a man who paints his nails and the social repercussions of that, they don't also have the bandwidth to deal with, say, depression. That's step 100, we're still getting past step 1.
This is a welcome fork. Still for me, flutter is not web platform friendly by design(e.g. javascript) and that's the reason I stopped using it and switched to react-native + electronjs(react), they seem more reliable and production ready, plus this approach is totally web friendly.
You should basically always be very suspicious when someone is trying to sell you a way to earn very attractive returns without a lot of risk or without time and effort intensive management. There is a lot of capital out there in the world looking for a return. If the returns really were so attractive on a risk-adjusted basis, and you could deploy a fair amount of capital without building a large organization and incurring a bunch of fixed operating expenses, why wouldn't someone who is a proven successful operator in that field just raise more capital themselves and keep more of the profits?

Even when the propositions look plausible on the surface, there is usually some hidden gotcha that prevents it from being scalable. For example, the economics only work if you can find a really good location that meets a bunch of requirements, and there simply aren't that many of those "good" locations left. Or it turns out that it requires very intensive management to deal with broken equipment, theft, vandalism, etc.

Right now, I’m working on a startup with my cofounder called Hypership – an all-in-one platform designed to cut through the chaos of modern web development. After years of building products, I’ve seen how tangled the ecosystem has become. It feels like every tiny feature is another SaaS subscription, with its own login, data silos, and integration headaches. Want error logging? That’s another $20. Need analytics? Another login. And don’t get me started on the documentation for half these tools.

Hypership is our attempt to fix that mess. We’re building a platform where you can deploy, manage, and track everything from one place. No more juggling 15 different tools just to keep your app running. The vision is simple: let devs focus on building great products, not wrangling disconnected micro-SaaS.

> that suburbanites choose to live in suburban areas because they want the isolation.

I don't think most of them want isolation, I strongly suspect that most people moving to suburbs are doing so for their career, as most well-paid jobs are in metropolitan areas. In a metropolitan area your options are mostly:
1) city
2) suburb w/ very little mixed-use zoning

Cities tend to be more expensive for less space. There are going to be many people who would want to live in a city with their family but simply can't afford the rent, so they live on the outskirts of the city (suburbs). Alternatively they may want the space, yard, etc. that a house provides, but this doesn't mean they want isolation. They may very well prefer suburbs with good mixed-use zoning and public transit, those are just very rare in the US.

> It seems that if you took suburbs away from these people

I'm not proposing taking suburbs away from people, nor are the vast majority of urbanists. We're proposing more ability to build denser suburbs (i.e. some multifamily housing in suburban areas), mixed-use zoning (so you can walk to stores), and better public transit in suburbs. See also: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missing_middle_housing. Suburbs that have these features tend to be in high-demand, they're just rare today because they're illegal to build in many places (I think there's some commentary on that here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWsGBRdK2N0).

> they'd most likely try to move into more rural areas

Unlikely IMO because again I suspect that many/most have moved to suburbs for their careers. There aren't nearly as many jobs in rural areas.

> 15-minute city

Anyone claiming this is bad is just being disingenuous IMO. ~Nobody promoting 15 minute cities wants to force people to live in cities, they want cities where you can meet most of your needs by walking or cycling or taking public transit. If you don't want to live in a city or want to live in a city and spend 10s of thousands of dollars on a car you still can. I don't think we can extrapolate much about what the average American wants based on those who believe that conspiracy theory, because the people who believe it are either woefully uninformed about what it actually is or are just being malicious reactionaries.

The 3am baker currently exists because the people who benefit the most from the exploitation of labor have the extra money to buy artisan products. My great grandfather had a bakery.

And then corporate breadmakers came in and made it impossible to compete from a price standpoint. Quality disappeared, and variety was subsequently crushed. The only people keeping his businesses open for a while were those who had fortunes that existed from owning a ton of land. They still wanted their oval loaves and fresh french bread and muffins.
