Google releases Flutter 3.7, teases future of app development framework
I keep hearing good things about Flutter, it's seems like a bit of a quiet hit. We've added support for Flutter Desktop in the next release of Hydraulic Conveyor so it'll get a lot easier to distribute Flutter apps outside the browser soon. There's a demo of how to package Flutter apps built using Github Actions here:
https://github.com/hydraulic-software/flutter-demo/
(see the conveyor.conf file, it's a normal Flutter Desktop app other than that). That won't work with the current release but we should get the next one out this week or next.
This should be great for people who want to bring their cross-platform mobile app to laptops and other form factors without exploding costs by needing to write/maintain an HTML version too. That duplication really isn't ideal for a lot of reasons e.g. some users will end up trying to use the web version from mobile so you end up with actually 4x frontend dev costs (iOS, Android, web desktop, web mobile) and for smaller projects it's just hard to justify.
Traditionally desktop deployment was a huge pain and that pushes people towards trying to use Chrome for everything, because it handles updates and uploading a few files to a web server is easy. With Conveyor and easily available multi-platform CI for compiles that's fixed now, the hardest part is buying the signing certificates which is just a bit of paperwork and money. The problem with trying to do everything with WebAssembly and canvas is that you're paying a big perf hit and due to cache partitioning you can't really reduce the size hit of an alternative language and graphics stack by amortizing it across different sites like was once possible. And browsers aren't interested in making it easy for people to do that, they want to control the whole experience, so there's lots of paper cuts and apps written with Flutter are ultimately going to be best experienced outside the browser.

Rule of Thumb: Anything that looks fancy is not worth you time
- Ads with Psychological tricks
Truly good websites have around 2 facts per 10 word sentence, and get instantly to the chase. Also: good websites give you the names of all their competitors/alternative websites before showing their own stuff, and give you further reading.
Right now the world of technology is supposedly more innovative than ever, but somehow Wikipedia (https://www.wikipedia.org/) and Search Hackernews (https://hn.algolia.com/) beat billion dollar search engines.
Articles written decades ago are still unsurpassed in terms of quality and ease of understanding, but the best modern websites can do is textbook explanations. It is time society graduates from boilerplate buzzword textbook culture.
Now the gems of the internet are slowly being buried beneath mountains of trash.
If something sounds boilerplate it isn't good enough.
Don't bother saying something that has been said before, and better.

What makes a translation great
>for more detail: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&qu...
Oh, I see. We actually discussed Pound about four years ago - just a little back and forth about the ABC of Reading: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24196681
>What's your explanation of why Pound went Fascist?
I'm not sure I particularly have one; I haven't read any of his longer political or cultural (i.e. non-literary) works. I just think it's silly to correlate an approach to translation that you dislike with fascism. Especially as I'm not sure it even makes sense on its own terms: I can only read your comment as 'lazy translator? Figures that he would be a fascist', but if I imagine the type of translation a fascist would approve of, the approach I picture is fastidious, fussy, concerned with fidelity to the point of stickler-ishness. (Isn't that from where we get 'grammar nazi'?)
And oh, well, since you ask I'll take a shy at it: my vague sense is that he became fascist because saw a society in decline due to it becoming more and more a sham society: opulence without virtue, power without vigour, money no longer tied to actually existing goods. (Of course, all of this shades easily into antisemitism.) He saw fascism as the answer; It's easier to see in retrospect that it wasn't.

Zed Decoded: Linux When? – Zed Blog
"multiplayer notepad" goes back 15 years at least - https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&qu... notepad&sort=byDate&type=comment
it was used back with a popular website which opened a text document and anyone viewing could type, but I can't remember the name. That became a thing in Google Docs, Microsoft Office, Floobits, and lots of self-hosted and cloned sites.

Ok, but please don't post unsubstantive comments to Hacker News.
I understand the reason for repeating these sentiments—it's the same reason why they get upvoted to the top of threads*—but repetition of this kind is what we're most trying to avoid here.

Show HN: Hacker Search – A semantic search engine for Hacker News
yeah there are only three stories coming up from the site search
https://hn.algolia.com/?q=postgres+clustering
only one is semanthically correct, the other pick up the wrong version of clustering (i.e. k-means instead of multi master writes)
but yeah if one doesn't test the hard cases, how does one know it preserves semantics :D
