in this world of ai slop two things are my refuge: 1 woodworking. 2 emulating old games. the first allows me to practice craft again. the second lets me experience software and digital art created with love by talented humans again.
I have seen too many instances of technical bullshitting recently. Mostly from accounts with a large following and with thousands of likes.
Itβs good to have Matej here to bring up the facts.
Yeah, no, this is kinda bullshit. Everything that needs event input or layout changes (including scrolling) has always run on main thread and is subject of main thread stalls. The example works for very simple canned animations that have been mostly irrelevant since iOS 7.
Iβve pitched this idea for a while now: a community video made entirely of clips from Flutter devs worldwide. This week, we finally made it a reality. Seeing all those faces and places on the big screen to kick off the session was a deeply proud moment. π
βWhatβs the point of 3D graphics without 3D physics?β
Thatβs the question me & @luanpotter27 kept asking ourselves.
So... we are building a whole new set of packages to bring 3D physics into the Flutterπ & Flameπ₯ ecosystem!
PS: keep an eye on the Flame Engine's GitHub π
Google announced that all Android app developers must register centrally, pay a fee, and submit government ID, or their apps will be blocked on every device. over 67 organizations oppose this. keepandroidopen.org@AlteredDeal#KeepAndroidOpen

A PR was just merged that unpins all (except one minor) Flutter dependencies! π
No more dependency hells when upgrading minor/patch versions of collection, meta, vector_math, intl, path etc in your apps and packages. π₯³

A few highlights now that I wrapped my last week at Superlist. From experiments with the latest AI tools, to shipping code to production, to 3D design and UI animation. I learned a ton from the team and picked up a bunch of new skills along the way.
I finally released Apol 2.0! π
I basically reworked everything (cough again), but it was worth it. Debates are now way more discussion-centered, making it seamless to mix personas and debates.
Also... I might be slightly obsessed with the new transitions and effects I added. π₯Ή
