I've been pretty busy with #FlutterFlightPlans and haven't given any thought to tomorrow's #ObservableFlutter livestream yet.
Anyone have any ideas for what I should work on? Continuing my (sloppy) adaptive UI explorations is always an option. #FlutterDev

Hey, folks! The Flutter team is doing a livestream next week, which will include a Q&A. Anything you'd like to ask the engineering, DevRel, and product leads?
Questions about the roadmap, new features, the craziest place they've seen someone get Flutter running, all of these are valid topics. 😀

Folks rightly talk and think a lot about what our impulse to be polite to LLMs says about us as human beings. I never thank my laundry machine, yet being overly terse with Gemini or ChatGPT still feels undeniably *wrong*.

Dart confession: when I need to add value equality to a simple class but don't yet have pkg:equatable in the project, I grab the necessary boilerplate from pkg:equatable's README
(once I have two or three classes with value equality, I add equatable)

I've never been more offended by a headline. "No foul play suspected" ????

I don't understand the hesitation around acknowledging this. Trump is self-evidently the dumbest person to ever live. There has never been a more broken, insecure, infantile adult. Ever.
Maybe Rex Tillerson Was Right. Maybe Trump Really Is Just A Moron.
His lying and temper tantrums aside, evidence abounds that the president's most important, and dangerous, feature is his ignorance.

This is a good time to restate the ancient truth that Donald Trump’s accusations are always, every time, without fail, a confession
REPORTER: Do you maintain that you did not write a letter for Jeffrey Epstein's birthday?
TRUMP: Somebody could've written a letter and used my name
