I would argue that Biden can say and do plenty of crazy things as long as he never goes full Trump.

It was originally meant as a better JavaScript and it was. It failed when none of the other browsers expressed interest in supporting it. It languished for a while and then was taken up by the Flutter team. At the time Flutter took it up it was somewhere around the level of Java 8 in features but not quite on par. Since then it’s seen some massive improvements to the type system and language. It’s completely null sound, not just null safe like Kotlin. It recently got records/tuples and one of the more capable pattern matching syntaxes I’ve ever seen in a functional imperative hybrid language. The next stable version of dart will introduce a compiler macro system that is very promising. The syntax isn’t always the prettiest due to it trying to not totally break old code. I do think that it offers a wide range of modern language features that competes heavily with Swift and Kotlin in the mobile space.

The only things JSON has over xml is that it’s easier to write a parser for it and the format is less verbose and less complicated. There are extensions to JSON that can add features that xml has and the JSON spec doesn’t have. Overall the xml spec is bigger and has more features but that also makes it overkill for many of the cases that it would be used in.

Claims top 5 and offers zero evidence and very little content beyond what an LLM might write.

They tried like hell to keep it off of the ballot in Ohio because they were afraid of what did happen. I can’t say if all of the dirty politics influenced people who were unsure how to vote in the opposite direction the GOP intended. Statistically speaking the final vote wasn’t even close. That is what they fear.

Or it is just corporate greed. Samsung would love to position something that is just okay into a premium price tier and not have to pay Intel. Sure they’re going to pay Qualcomm instead but you can bet that Qualcomm is giving some great introductory prices to their early partners.

Any program written for the .net clr ought to just run out of the box. There’s also an x64 to ARM translation layer that works much like Apple’s Rosetta. It will run the binary through a translation and execute that. I have one of the windows arm dev units. It works relatively well except on some games from my limited experience.

Have you ever driven through a small town and seen a police car sitting right where the speed limit drops? Those tickets and the kangaroo mayor’s courts are the only reason some of those towns are still alive.

The logo is closer to do ith ub. It might summon an orcish demon patron if said with the right spell components.

Recently I made an app using Flutter that I tried to distribute over the Windows Store. I was unable to get past the company verification process despite having whatever I needed. Their backend management site is pretty bad. Eventually I got stuck in some loop where the page would just keep refreshing endlessly. The tax form site which is separate wraps another site in an iframe. I decided to set it aside for a while because the app is also in the Amazon store. If I can conjure up the energy I’ll fight that beast again.

Last year, we partnered with the team at gSkinner to develop Wonderous, a reference app to showcase the high-quality experiences possible with Flutter. One of the goals for creating Wonderous was to provide an open-source example that demonstrates best practices. In that same spirit, we audited Wonderous against Android’s large screen guidelines.

It's a Medium article but shouldn't count against any stupid quotas since it is from the Flutter team.

I haven't seen any of the issues mentioned in the article. I suspect it is related to the libraries the author's project is using and I may not be using. These look like good temporary workarounds until fixes in the libraries can be rolled out.

Android 14 is already here, so I took the documentation, experts’ reviews, and other available resources to sort out all the important changes that will affect most application developers. Let’s examine new restrictions on background mode, changes in Foreground Service, new restrictions on the work of Intent and BroadcastReceiver. In this release, we have many restrictions, but we’ve also got new features.

Here's a nice simple article explaining enhanced enums that have been around for a while but may be something overlooked. Between these and sealed classes I think Dart has an excellent story for pattern matching.
