Also shamelessly ignoring that they are eliminating genuine competition through coercion. Competition gives better results for consumers and the economy.

Is he shaking hands with Tal?

I don't know the reality but I feel like reducing unnecessary digital crap reduces clutter and might help storage overall. Like I am not going to look through all the 50 images of a beach trip 7 years ago. Is better to reduce for both human and digital organization

So by deleting them you are reducing the need for keeping that storage alive. Demand for storage keeps growing linearly, any reduction will help.

Sorry? Why won't it? If say a data center has to store 100 peta bytes today but say based off all these deletions they only store 50pbs
That's saving. Data has backups and redundancies. It might help create extra capacity for future storage.

At SoFi (~1500+) we are an AI experiments team and we are piloting several tools including cursor, Claude, windsurf, gitar etc. we started with copilot, got Gemini first but then but our CTO opened the gates few months ago.

Context matters but this seems overall bad advice. In large enterprises and code bases there is a lot of tech debt and not everything needs to be solved right away. Especially not by your highest paid engineers. They should go after the hardest and most impactful problems.

So which cache was it? Did you delete derived data folder?

Are your using cursor? I think the most useful way is to create cursor rules to do your steps and publish them in GitHub. You can double check the rules. So future users can just those rules and direct their agents to do the same. A video is for humans but rules are for AI.

We still have them in git repo, so you think we can remove them

Don't you need a pubspec.yaml /.lock in each of the modules too?

Why not movie and audio generation?

Oh small world I saw this line from my taxi to work and taxi driver is like there is some party, people are lining up! Its a MCP party

Remember you have to create force update strategy well BEFORE you need it.

Any E2E automation tool will be slow, dont compare it to grey box tools like espresso

We are using them to automate deep link tests. They need access outside the app and maestro is very simple for that usage.
Let's not forget that it's an E2E framework and we shouldn't try to introduce mocking that's better left for lower level tests.

Is he from usa or outside? There seem to be stigma for flutter in USA companies. Very few (SoFi, betterment, GEICO.. ) big companies adopting it

As a flutter engineer in USA, what could people like me (or the companies) do to influence the direction. At the end of the day they are both strong mobile technologies and having good options creates resilience for startups and engineers.
