"But don't you want to play with me?"

As I've slowly migrated some projects to the HSM; I found myself needed a few more features; replace/copyWith: github.com/jtmcdole/hie...

HSM 2.2.1 released... why? While I have "stable" flutter running, I didn't use flutter_test till I started migration and hit the dreaded version pinning >:(

And the gathering and sharing of all the tools in my toolbox continues: core_bus (pronounced corvus) - const Events with type safety, no choke points, callbacks for performance and streams if you need'em. replayable events as well. no deps either. #opensource pub.dev/packages/cor...

Just added serialization to my hsm library. mostly handwritten. Also added plantuml output. I want to support mermaid, but how do you write text inside the state blocks? github.com/jtmcdole/hie...

Proud to be the 131st backer 😎 on @BackerKit Crowdfunding for New Edge Sword & Sorcery 2026! www.backerkit.com/c/projects/b...

HSM 2.0 published - now with nearly all the things I wanted years ago: * Proper event deferral * Deep and Shallow history * Fork, Choice, Terminate, Final pseudo states * Blueprints for composability + validation * Performance: lca and paths precomputed * PSSM tests pub.dev/packages/hie...

How is this the world we live in today? > President Trump posted a blatantly racist video clip portraying former President Barack Obama and the former first lady Michelle Obama as apes

Today I released Portico Auth - A modular, Dart-native authentication and authorization ecosystem designed for self-hosting and experimental applications. For a long time my personal home projects have used this JWT/JWE/Auth0 API, but in a copypasta fashion...

I love working on open source code at Google. This is the account you should be following.

What's it say when the German media says your coat looks a little Nazi?

Sharing for no reason in particular :)

I don't want Greenland. I don't know of anyone real person that wants Greenland.

So proud of Jess for landing in one of this year's issues!

Read this article and I feel like we should tax unrealized gains when they are effectively realized through "buy, borrow, die" strategies. If you sell - great, use it against capital gains. Unfortunately we live in a lottery society, hoping to be the next billionaire.

I like brain candy!

My 2025 reading list in which I just finished The Devils down to the wire.

The buffet we are at has a 25' screen showing Ai holiday images.

Had to do some internal training. Training includes fixing busted python and jupyter notebooks that are quickly outdated. "Fun". There's got to be a much better / effective / intuitive / engaging platform for training.

New laptop, new windows install, already seeing update error 0x800f0991. I hate windows. Time to download 7GB iso images to repair. <grumble>

Want to live in Sunnyvale, California and work on the Flutter team?

Achievement unlocked: Dad, can we listen to Master of Puppets?

6 years ago, I wrote an AES AEAD library in Dart just to go through the motions and learn the encryption. I had CCM and OCB, but never added GCM... Gemini 3 and Antigravity said "hold my beer". NIST and boringssl test vectors passed!

The new M5 Vision Pro adds 150g to the already overweight M2 Vision Pro. "But they give you a cool new strap to distribute the weight!" some articles read... sorry, its still 800g hanging off your face, torquing your neck.

Meet the Flutter Extension for Gemini CLI 👋 This extension combines the Dart and Flutter MCP Server with additional context and commands, making it easier and more productive to build Flutter apps with Gemini CLI. Get started → goo.gle/46SMYMg

Check out the new #FlutterDev extension for Gemini CLI and throw the repo a star to help other Flutter devs find it :)

Savage Beastfly Part 2?! KILL THE ADS ASAP youtu.be/mIFryJgcJro

I'm still very much in love with Silksong. While I play primarily on my steam deck as its attached to the TV - sometimes you need to just switch back to something with a little less compounded latency to "get gud"... youtu.be/HFPmqUOjqMc

The latest Flutter beta was updated on Aug 1: 3.35.0-0.2.pre We're locking down for the next stable release. We'd love to know if you find any show stoppers as soon as possible. Please file issue with the `flutter --version` info included.

Cat: Laundry Day

This year's unavoidable DLC - an ear that feels like it has water in it and ringing. Fun!

I didn't know there was a Constitution competition. Feels like a movie script having a two-kid team win it! www.nytimes.com/2025/04/16/u...

Finished The Final Architecture series, in need of a palate cleanser - so Dungeon Crawler Carl it is... #books

Interesting find while repairing some battery connectors on a headset. There's a ton of connectors out there, and finding images of each (along with some calipers for validation) was hard, till I came across this blog. www.mattmillman.com/info/crimpco...

Gemini in DartPad integration landed! Great work from @jryanio.bsky.social, @csells.bsky.social, and others!

Free speech isn't only speech you agree with. Looks like it's back to the good old days of McCarthyism. > The hearing, entitled "Anti-American Airwaves: Holding the Heads of NPR and PBS Accountable," was called by Greene www.npr.org/2025/03/26/n...

Using Flutter on the web? Wish you had hot reload? You can try it out (in beta) today! Details here: www.reddit.com/r/FlutterDev...

Version 0.0.3 appears to work :) ``` lcov_format --lcov coverage/lcov.info --out coverage -f html ``` pub.dev/packages/lco...

How does one reference a file from a `dart pub global active` script? Looks like I'm getting: `~/.pub-cache/global_packages/lcov_format/assets/web.tar.bz2` but I expect: `~/.pub-cache/hosted/pub.dev/lcov_format-0.0.1/assets/web.tar.bz2`

LCOV dart-only experiment almost done (I've been sick for days): - melos for juggling multiple packages (A+) - jaspr for web prezzo (B+)* Melos was great; I cribbed a lot from the @flame-engine.bsky.social well setup repo. Jaspr was neat. Fast loading. Debugging on Windows is busted. 🧵

Nothing like volunteering to earn you a gnarly cold. I've been out of commision for the last 2 days :( Super glad my company is good with sick time.

When debugging in jaspr, the browser locks up for a second and then goes crazy. Am I holding this thing wrong? I just want to inspect layout. also: dumb side quest almost fully done.

Trying out something new for #Flutter notable commits... 😜 Buckle up Flutter devs, over 200 changes landed in Flutter in the last 2 weeks! 🌊 Dive into the highlights from this week's report..
