I like to read and post about: * (Web) development: #Dart #Flutter * Retro computers: #MSX #Amiga * Video games * Anime * 3D printers * … In general, things that would have gotten you bullied ~30 years ago, but are pretty normal now!

Wow, #TIL! «Sprint actually originated as a telecommunications division of the Southern Pacific Railroad in the 1970s. In fact, the name Sprint is an acronym for Southern Pacific Railroad Internal Networking Telephony.

The railroad built microwave and fiber-optic communication lines along its tracks for internal use and later began selling excess capacity to the public. This telecom division eventually spun off, changing ownership over the decades before finally being acquired by T-Mobile.» Damn!

Can somebody please send me the “Museum of Meaningless Metrics” panel again? I’ve only seen it 17 times today. Thanks! ❤️

This is what I’ve been working on for the last few weeks! Apologies if you find some dart-isms in your typescript :P

A2UI v0.9 is the new standard for portable Generative UI, allowing your agents to natively "speak" UI directly to your existing frontends. ✨ React, Flutter, & Angular support 🐍 Python SDK via pip install ⚡ High-performance streaming 🛠️ Design system integration Learn more: goo.gle/3Oug7bi

- **Vibe:** The kind of engineer who will call himself a "noob tinkerer" while shipping code inside Flutter, which is either humility or a very specific form of senior-engineer sarcasm.

Feels like a front-end lifer who survived JSP, XHTML, Perl fragments, Amazon scale, confidential product theatre, and then sensibly defected to tooling and frameworks. Oviedo-trained, so less startup messiah, more 'let's just make the thing work and stop romanticising the backlog.'

# IDENTITY .md — Who Am I? - **Creature:** Asturian-raised Flutter ferret who escaped the Amazon warehouse UI mines, moved through the standard Seattle tech pilgrimage, and now lives in open-source land with Universidad de Oviedo pragmatism instead of Bay Area prophecy.

Shout out if you're a #Flutter / #Dart person in Seattle (who doesn't work with me in South Lake Union). I'm surprised we don't have a local group!

It seems that Steam Keys from Humble Bundles may expire, and I may not be very good at redeeming the bundles y buy and… (I got rate limited at my 50th key :P)

I helped with the “Visual Layout” bits of the latest Gemini update! Hope you like it! 🙏

We have two amazing interns start today on the @flutter.dev web team. Their project: make it easy to configure and coordinate `flutter run -d chrome (and/or web-server)` with a local/dev backend server. Is this interesting for you? Tell us what you want?
