I do more mobile/web Flutter dev so haven't got experience here but I'm surprised to hear that. Can you name some examples?

Funny to see speed in there, my experience is the opposite.

Im a very happy Flutter dev and it's always been odd to see so much negative sentiment around it when there are public discussions.

I like using fn-keys as media keys in most apps with the exception of programming apps where I use the fn-keys a lot. This is a little helper tool for generating a rule for Karabiner-Elements based on the apps you want to do this for.

Yeah it's usually a sign that you're doing too much in a single widget if you end up with a crazy amount of nesting.

Can you elaborate? I've found it a delight.

I am Rory Stephenson, a full stack dev specialising in cross-platform apps written in Flutter. I'm not afraid of challenging problems and unfamiliar domains and I'm ready to tackle your project immediately either as a contractor or employee.

Prior to specialising in Flutter I worked on large Ruby backends with some frontend Rails/React work. I'm very comfortable designing/implementing/integrating with REST APIs and databases.

Location: Trento, Italy

Remote: Yes

Willing to relocate: Almost certainly not.

Technologies: Dart/Flutter in the last few years. Previously Ruby/Rails and the usual web tech along the way Postgres/AWS/ElasticSearch/Redis/React etc etc.

Résumé/CV: Previously worked on a large customer loyalty scheme (FlyBuys) and a train booking system (Loco2, then RailEurope) with both backend and frontend roles. In the last few years I discovered Flutter/Dart and have released a climbing app for Italy (Falesia), did some contracting work and am currently releasing my latest side project which is again climbing related (https://climblocator.com). I have contributed quite a lot to the flutter_map plugin and some of my own mapping related packages (https://pub.dev/publishers/balanci.ng/packages). I am most interested in roles that include Flutter/Dart. More formal CV available on request.

I love interesting problems and it's important for me to work on meaningful projects with a friendly and fun team. I am easy going and I value an environment where we collaborate to achieve the highest quality possible (solid PR reviews etc).

I am active in mountain sports and love to highline and run. I would consider full-time roles but am most interested in part-time (3 to 4 days a week) or contract work.

Similarly I've been getting smashed with gmail spam, google calendar spam and google drive spam for around 6 months now after never previously getting any and despite reporting most of it.

It looks like MrGilbert has forked [0] just-an-email but it's not actually his project?

It's a shame France is one of the countries you are unable to hire in at this point, I would be really interested otherwise.

I decided to scratch my own itch as I like to play music via YouTube with friends when we're together and usually this involves switching between two open tabs on YouTube. It was also a nice project to warm up again after a long sabbatical and to try some things I've never played with before (Front-end programming, Responsive design, Hosting static site via AWS).

I've got some ideas on how to improve it if there is interest (to be honest it scratches my own itch so well I'll probably make the improvements anyway :) ).

You need to try slacklining/highlining!

I wonder if a language like Haskell with a strong type system and strict typing could help. If you were able to express exchange of currency with the type system.

The title reminded me of Steve Jobs' "reality distortion field".

So fix the cause of that and let nature regulate itself back to normal.

When will we learn to stop interfering with the environment? Every time we prop it up like this we just end up creating another issue. Look at cane toads in Australia for example.

The environment regulated itself just fine without us.

Cool concept! I hit an exception when looking for aerial video in Christchurch, New Zealand [0]. Your environments are not right too since that kind of exception detail should not be showing in production.

Just saw this on the front page, seems like a good option (get others to work with you and share the profit): http://sideprojects.assembly.com/

That's funny! I read the article and then had that thought five minutes later and thought I'd come up with it. Thanks for pointing that out :)

Another possibility... there are plenty of civilisations within broadcasting distance from us that are all listening but not broadcasting for fear of predatory civilisations.
