Once it's bad enough, it's too late. It's like putting on a seat belt after the crash.

I think Newsvoice (https://newsvoice.com/app) is written in flutter.

Why is that a problem? Phones have gigs of space.

Not all phones. And not that many gigs. And not all mobile networks have so much data bandwidth. At least not where I am.

Ah, I see. Well, FWIW it starts at 7 MB, and then I presume grows at the same rate as a native app as it gets more complicated.

It's not just about the storage space (That in itself is a problem though...).

The download can also be an issue, especially when downloading over cell... more so in a rural or other poor signal area.

Yea, it's not a problem. Even more so if you can install apps onto SD cards. There is lots of room on my 32 GB card. I could literally install thousands of simple Flutter apps.

I'm a font fetishist, so over many years I've tried many fonts. Settled on Maax Mono [1], I find it to be remarkably beautiful.

What about political influence? Irrespective of how much you can buy, if dollars equal political influence, which is not far from wrong, people in the middle class now have less control over their lives and those of their children.

"somehow led to the tragic result of him taking his own life" That "somehow" word really rings wrong with me. It is not that hard to understand how being under a federal indictment would contribute to depression and even eventually suicide.

This reminded me of Arnold Schwarznegger's rules for success in life: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LuJ4hbkLiY0 about 50 seconds in. Rule 2 -- break the rules.

Looks gorgeous, what framework(s) is this implemented with?

We use Python/Django and MySQL. Pretty boring to be honest, which I'm digging after spending nearly five years working on crazy ass big infrastructure.

That being said, I'm eyeing Redis, Node.js, Memcached (of course), and some AWS services for future upgrades, services, and features.

When you try to make the rules of the game better, you don't personally start playing by the new rules, you try to make the rules of the game better.
