The last 2 months I’ve been reading the “Dungeon Crawler Carl” book series. It’s excellent. I have only a few pages left in current last Book (7) and a little sad to be nearly done. It’s pretty long. Maybe the most pages I’ve ever read by a single author? 🤔

🔥 #Flutter fam! Another week, another round of awesome updates that landed! Over 80 changes landed in flutter/flutter, heading to the beta channel soon! Get ready to test these within 3.31.0-1.0.pre.68 and beyond 🚀

What should I use to take (high frequency) log data and bucketing it into counts (e.g. 1s)? A time series db? If I get 1000 events in 1s, I want the data structure to say 1000, but I don't care about the individual event data. Most seconds/key pairs will be 0 most of the time.

Have I misunderstood the Error/Exception distinction @randalschwartz.bsky.social? github.com/dart-lang/co...

Would be fun to implement RDAP in Dart. 🤔

Who said code can't be an art form?

I improved Shorebird’s stack trace printing tonight. It was immensely satisfying. I don’t know why more folks don’t work down in compiler/runtime land. It’s fun!

I was impressed by the @shorebird.dev workshop 👀 Thanks @felangel.bsky.social for showing how easy it is to get up and running 🙌 I'll definitely be trying it out on our app to further evaluate #flutterdev
