#XamarinGaveMe my first job in mobile development. I might have lost some hair along the way though ;) Technologies come and go, I suppose...

Hey folks, I have mentioned that I have been working on a small game in C!

I finally have something to share about it. Check it out.

I was wrong and misleading here. It will only support single refresh rate, not just single monitor. I.e. if you have 60Hz screen and 120Hz laptop it will fallback to one of them (I suppose the slower one?)

Just learnt that multi-window support in Flutter will only support single monitor, at least in the initial version :(

Today, we’re launching a new in-app research study into reinfections with Patient-Led Research Collaborative🚀

It’s been widely reported by people with #LongCovid & #MECFS that infections can have a significant impact on long-term symptoms

With your help, we can better understand this phenomenon 🧵

Wondering if this is where Moravec's paradox would actually work in favor of robots

One of the most mesmerizing artworks and blog posts I've seen in a while. larswander.com/writing/spectr…

I quite enjoy the fact that whatever comes from gskinner is not only useful, but also well polished in terms of design

Killed by Google Flutter is a force of nature. As a former competitor, I appreciate just how profoundly good the fundamentals are. We didn’t have the capital/engineering to do something like that.

The best we could do was Xamarin.Forms/Maui and they are an ocean apart.

How do you figure out which version of firebase_xxx library is compatible with a given firebase_core? On the iOS side I know that if I want to use Firebase/CoreOnly at 10.22.0 then corresponding Firebase/Auth is 10.22.0. It's almost impossible to figure this out for Flutter.
