There are some: https://flutter.io/showcase/ But yeah, I know a lot of developers who have started playing with Flutter in the last couple of months, so there should be a lot more later this year/next year.

I think we'd probably send robotic probes on missions such as this. The only way I can really see a multi-generational mission being done is for some kind of colonization mission.

I wonder if Silicon Valley refuses to cooperate with the military if it won't mean that America won't be able to compete with China and Russia strategically in the long term. Those countries presumably have no problems getting the

This article isn't very informative. For one thing "Andromeda" isn't Fuchsia, that was a proposed merger of Android & Chrome that was shelved in favor of Fuchsia. Kyle Bradshaw on 9to5Google has a pretty good series

"I think Microsoft is so many years behind Google in search that they have little hope of catching up" I can think of more examples. I agree, and Microsoft is a good example, that a paradigm shift can totally change the playing fi

OK I guess we have a different experience. As an iPhone user who uses Google Photos I find it to be quite a lot ahead of Apple's solution. It isn't really the filters it's more the search feature. I can search for "pets

I think Apple is so many years behind Google in AI that they have little hope of catching up. Their bet will be that consumers are privacy-focused enough to not mind the fact that their products have less AI-focused advancements (e.g. Googl

I think it'll only be ported to desktop once Fuchsia comes closer to release (which could be several years). They really seem focused on mobile only at the moment. Agree it could be a great solution.

I think Kotlin/Native's approach of sharing business logic while keeping the UI stuff native is probably the right choice. Although something like Flutter which render's all their own widgets is interesting because it allows
