I did read the article and reviewing it again and searching for "react," "progressive," and "pwa" returns zero results.
I think the article opens by stating a pretty strong disadvantage:
Flutter apps run as Android apps and so are less "native" than something like a PWA or react app, which would just run in the browser.
The article doesn't address my concern at all and I was hoping to have some constructive feedback about that concern, which did not happen.
What is the advantage of writing a Flutter app over a PWA or something like react-native?
Does this mean you feel that your work is not altruistic?
Would you mind elaborating on that? Some days I feel like I’d rather work for a non-profit than where I am.

In what way has Mate become the main Linux shell? It’s not the DE of choice for the most popular distributions so it likely doesn’t have a lot of exposure among Linux environments.
They were. OP seems to have bought into the fake story that someone legitimately hacked iCloud and only made it out with photographs.
Honestly this is probably a good idea.
When you think about how many people use Johnny No Good Hacker’s lastest ROM because it’s largely the OEM supported Android x with one or two Android ++x supported features, it really sounds like a good idea.
It would be nice if there were a safe way to bypass that “immobilizer,” though for people that trust their ROM origin and the software on their phone.
Chromium is awesome, it really is. But not for embedders.
the API is currently available for C++ only and requires Direct3D 11 on Windows and Metal on macOS.
“Embedders” here seems to mean “people who want to embed a web UI in a desktop application.” This confused me at first because I wondered why an embedded systems UI framework only supported Windows and macOS instead of Windows and small Unixes.
Are these documented? I imagine that would have to be snuck in at construction…
It’s a shame this has been overshadowed by the WWDC. I’ve been looking for something like this to provide a dashboard for an RPi or some other server.
I do have a few questions:
1. How do you interface with it? Is it exclusively via Wi-Fi? What about serial?
2. Does the network interface use SSL or some other form of security and/or authentication?
3. It looks like relay is controlled by pinging a server you control. Is there any way around this? Suppose I don’t want this device on the web.

Why didn’t you address the claim that you were just straight up lying?
They recruited heavily from the IT program at my university in Arkansas to the point that everyone pretty much knew the recruiter.
Somewhere during my time there I walked up to this recruiter expecting them to be recruiting for Acxiom and was surprised to see them recruiting for someone else. The whole thing (including details I’m omitting) seemed odd to me, but this might explain it.
Craft will always be lost.
You could argue that the art of cave painting or tablet engraving was lost to make way for manuscripts written on papyrus and that was lost to make way for the printing press and so on.
Losing craft for efficiency will happen as civilizations advance, but one thing to keep in mind is the amount of craft that went into sending an email. It can be at the level of writing an email server with a high uptime and a client that reads them reliably. It can go down to bits and byte. And that doesn’t account for the crafting of the hardware that those software run on or the effort that went into the infrastructure to carry those signals.
The trend is that each individual that has an idea to share has to put less effort into sharing their own idea, but that doesn’t mean that what we built no longer requires craft. The tragedy is that we don’t see and appreciate the monumental craft that went into making email work in the first place. I’d argue that whole process requires more craft, but the sender and recipient of the emails don’t have to understand it.
