Today is my last day at @shorebird.dev. I’ve had a great time working with the team and building some awesome tech but I’ve decided to move on to my next adventure. Don’t worry, I’m not going anywhere — I’ll still be active in the Flutter/Dart community 💙

I’m personally not a huge fan of Dart’s new dot shorthand syntax. It makes code harder to read, there’s no lint rule to standardize one way or the other, and it just adds more complexity to a language which I love for its simplicity.

Hey, folks! The Flutter team is doing a livestream next week, which will include a Q&A. Anything you'd like to ask the engineering, DevRel, and product leads? Questions about the roadmap, new features, the craziest place they've seen someone get Flutter running, all of these are valid topics. 😀

The language of non-consent around AI is really telling. "It's too late to be scared." "It's here whether we want it or not." "You'll have to learn to work with it." "You can't fight the inevitable." All just variations of "you're not allowed to say no." Creepy technology made by creepy people.

“Every CEO talking about AI replacing workers is an example of the real problem: that most companies are run by people who don’t understand or experience the problems they’re solving...” www.wheresyoured.at/the-case-aga...

"When you see everything as an outcome — an outcome you may or may not understand, and definitely don’t understand the process behind, let alone care about — you kind of already see your workers as LLMs." www.wheresyoured.at/the-case-aga...

A study of experienced developers found AI tools made them 19% SLOWER, not faster. Additionally, developers expected AI to speed them up by 24%, and even after experiencing the slowdown, they still believed AI had helped them work 20% faster. metr.org/blog/2025-0...

New bloc_lint rule just dropped in v0.3.2 🎉 bloclibrary.dev/lint-rules/p...

"Calling chatbot inaccuracies ‘hallucinations’ feeds in to overblown hype about their abilities [...] Calling these inaccuracies ‘bullshit’ rather than ‘hallucinations’ isn’t just more accurate; it’s good science and technology communication in an area that sorely needs it."

"I saw online another restaurant owner suggested deploying one thousand microwaves for each chef. This sounds like a great idea. The restauranteur also has heavy investments in microwaves and might be over leveraged. I try not to think about that too much."

"When microwaves are everywhere you’ll be so far behind you’ll never learn how to use a microwave. Chefs who use tools besides microwaves are luddites. They live in fear of the future." www.colincornaby.me/2025/08/in-t...
