My upcoming game has a Steam page now so that folks can wishlist it: store.steampowered.com/app/2538440/GI…

I got an email that @yearsprogress has been suspended from Twitter API, and I have to re-sign-up. At least I know where I'm at. (There was no communication till now.)

I avoided saying anything about GetX while I was employed at Google because I didn't want my personal opinion confused with official stance. Now that I've quit:

I've been working on a book about Flutter & Dart performance. I'm at the very beginning, with only a few chapters drafted but I decided to write the book in the open.
Here it is:
Flutter 2.8 is here, with better performance, smoother Firebase integration, Ads support, etc.
This is my 10 minute summary of what's new. (Plus 2 minutes to explain my black eye.)
My first Flutter-related video since I left Google!
I'm trying to push myself to come up with nicer designs for the default Flutter starter app ("Counter"), using code only. Nothing official, of course.
Opinions?
If you know a person who expressed interest in giving Flutter a go but hasn't done so yet, my #GoogleIO workshop is just 👌 for them.
