#BlackLivesMatter. Work on @flutter.dev. Kamala Harris forever. Irredeemable nerd. My opinions are good. Michigan ➡️ California.

Shower thought: The pool of people we call the American Founding Fathers could have either been twice as big or twice as smart had they included women. We got Founding *Fathers*, but maybe we'd be better off if we'd had Founding *Parents*.

Supporting anonymous accounts in apps is a deceivingly complicated task. It is a very pro-user decision (users can get started immediately and formalize their account later if they way), but at surprising development cost.
