Flutter "compiles to native," but the UI is just a giant canvas they paint themselves. React Native uses real native views, so you get actual platform widgets, accessibility, and OS-level optimizations instead of shipping your own game engine.

Also, Google has a habit of hyping projects then quietly killing them (I sadly took the Polymer ride).

Amazing, there are estimated 86 billion neurons in the human brain, so they are just short of 85 billion and change.

But I think there is more to it, how many are used for speech vs vision, how much is used for motor control. If the idea is to build a speech neuron activity to some sort of ml data representation it's probably way less than 85b.

1. AI regulation becomes fragmented and messy as different jurisdictions implement contradictory rules. The EU's AI Act creates a "Brussels effect" but China and the US take divergent approaches, creating headaches for global tech companies.

2. "AI-free" becomes a marketing term like "organic." Premium services start advertising human-only customer service, human-written content, and AI-free creative work. A certification industry emerges around this.

3. Climate tech sees a boom in investment as extreme weather events continue to drive home the urgency. Particular focus on grid-scale energy storage and carbon capture technologies.

4. The "nearshoring" trend accelerates, with Mexico and Eastern Europe becoming major manufacturing hubs as companies seek alternatives to China while staying relatively close to major markets.

5. The first mainstream consumer AR glasses hit the market, but like early smartphones, they're clunky and limited. The real impact is in industrial and professional applications.

6. Remote work stabilizes at a new equilibrium: most tech companies settle into a hybrid model with 2-3 office days per week. Fully remote becomes less common as companies optimize for "collaboration days."

7. The web3/crypto world pivots hard toward "real world assets" and practical financial applications, moving away from speculation. Smart contract platforms become boring but useful infrastructure.

8. A major cybersecurity crisis involving AI models leads to a fundamental rethinking of model deployment and security practices. "Model poisoning" becomes the new ransomware.

9. The shortage of high-end GPUs starts to ease as new fabs come online, but the industry faces a new bottleneck in networking equipment and specialized AI accelerators.

10. Traditional higher education faces a crisis as employers increasingly accept alternative credentials and bootcamps. Several mid-tier universities merge or shut down.

E-GMP (EV6, Ioniq5) actually charges quite fast on 400V as they run it through the motor/inverter which already pumps out more than 100kW

I think no one else is doing that at the moment.

Exactly what I was thinking. They mention 700km as some reference point, then 400km in 10 minutes, not sure what the density is.

Hyundai/Kia launched the EV6 with 10-80% charging in 17 minutes more than two years ago.

They then launched Hyundai IONIQ 6 with 10-80% at the 16 minute mark.

I guess we will be seeing 10-80% times get close to gas pump refill times in the near future.

My jam was Jet Set Radio, Toy Commander, Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX (What I got), and Sega GT.

But lets not forget Quake III Arena, which is "considered one of the best PC-to-console ports of its time thanks to its smooth frame rate and online play".

The CCS connector equivalent is relying on the onboard DC-AC converter for V2L-V2G, hence no inverter needed.

The CCS cable uses a resistor between PE and PP pin to allow the EVSE to determine its current capacity, 1–2.7kΩ for single-phase 13A all the way down to 50–150Ω for three-phase 63A. [1]

What manufacturers have done is tap into that and use some resistance to tell the car to go to V2L mode.

- Hyundai IONIQ5 and Kia EV6 use 50-75Ω for its V2L adapter, offering 3.6kW load

- MG ZS uses 470Ω offering 2.2kW load

- Ford F-150 to offer 9.6kW load, but resistor is unknown

- BYD vehicles to offer 2.2kW load but resistor is unknown

Late to the party, but Solana is proof-of-history not pow. Not that it matters, or actually, kind of makes your argument even stronger.

Scary stuff, but is that enough information to fingerprint someone?

I’m thinking hundreds or thousands of iPhone 13 on the same IP thru a GSM network. How will you know?

Won’t you need battery status and all that other bits also

Thanks for the demo, implementation looks good.

But the interaction feeling is still more natural with react spring, hopefully just a personal preference!

Figma also wins on Auto-layout and variants.

Especially helpful on UI library teams.

Airplanes man… my 15” MBP 2015 would always make this case cracking sound when the plane reached a specific altitude. It had some battery swell, not noticeable.

Scared the shit out of me, every time.

Can be very difficult when you can only see the problems in other people's ideas. Knowing that it's not the purpose, but rather to actually help, people that don't know you will not appreciate it.

My advice is to stop doing it with people that don't know how you think. It's usually the people who have unexpected problems again and again in their life.
