Only such an idiot can think that pushing 2 updates a day is a good idea.
I have some apps that havent been updated for like a year because the simply fucking work.
Only such an idiot can think that pushing 2 updates a day is a good idea.
Lets be fair. He’s a special kind of idiot.
Nah, its a great idea. Bug fix, and then hot fix for the new bug you just deployed!
Maybe you just haven’t had enough ketamine.
Not only a good idea, but indicative of positive growth.
Let’s change the font size.
This is such a joke to anyone in tech. It’s like a Silicone Valley skit.
I know next to nothing about publishing an app and my alarm bells went off immediately
Here’s 2 faults:
- Most people push a build once a week, because making a stable build usually has an engineer combining people’s work, and sometimes there’s conflicts in the merge.
- If you have a lot of bugs, you may need to patch more frequently.
Either way, it’s a bad look. Doing stable daily pushes is good in development, not in a live environment like this.
I’m nowhere close to tech and this is obviously a bad sign. Imagine an apartment complex trying to get new tenants by advertising that they have plumbers and exterminators do work twice a day at various units.

no he was talking about the porn parody of the show
Yeah and my company has the best dev team because we resolve all the critical incidents we cause by shipping buggy code.
Some of these other loser companies don’t even have incidents!
Oh wow, Elon figured out how we’ll finally get AGI. The key thing is to publish an automatic mobile client update every single hour of the day! That was the secret productivity metric that every single other company was missing. Thanks, big brain business boy!
Lol equating your busted as fuck code that needs constant patching with growth. Gonna keep that around for my own metrics. Yeah boss this is the 9th hotfix to prod this week! Think where we’ll be next month, things are going awesome!
On the contrary, the rate of mobile app updates being high is more of a red flag of an app development team not having the situation under control, being forced to panic-ship fixes.
does it count as an “update” every time elon fucks with it to push some fresh nazi shit?
what a meaningless measure. why don’t i update this app one byte at a time? i can say it’s massively outpacing the competition by updating 20 thousand times in the last 4 minutes while the competition updated ZERO times, which means we’re literally INFINITELY faster and by the end of the year we will have released millions of new versions.
he’s so monumentally stupid
“My codebase is way better because it has 300x as many lines of code” - that fucking moron, probably
I have to admit though, getting two app updates per day through the Apple review process is an achievement. (He probably paid them.)
Minor updates for bugfixes don’t require a real store review.
Any update that hits the App Store and increments a version number goes through the Apple review process.
Certain updates can be done on the fly with custom or third party solutions like https://ionic.io/docs/appflow/deploy/intro
But this graph doesn’t make it clear if these updates are new binary app deployments or on the fly updates
Yeah, I haven’t done it in like 8 months so I think I was conflating Code Push with App Store updates. I do think that apps get treated differently based on the priority of the company and there is some judgement used in the scope of changes. Like I wouldn’t be surprised if Grok is never subject to the random review delays just cuz no one wants to deal with Elon throwing a tantrum
Yeah I’m the lead mobile engineer at my company. We release bigger updates once a month and smaller hotfixes generally weekly or biweekly. For smaller updates we get approval in around 6 hours. They also have a way to expedite reviews in which case we’ve gotten like 30 minute turnaround on reviews (though that’s like boy that cried wolf, only use it if you need to push something really urgent)
The man knows about
productionmanufacturing more than anyone else in the world/s
Turns out AI-written software needs lots of patches to keep up.
I knew the Apartheid shithead was dumb as fuck, but even “as fuck” isn’t that dumb…
The Nextdoor app updates every two weeks. OpenAI should be worried.
Add a comment.
Commit.This is why there are a bunch of improvished people adding nonsense updates to git repositories, padding out their resume out of desperation.
It’s hard to blame them trying to climb their way out of poverty, but it does harm the people trying to do work.
Why would you need to update the app? It should all run on their servers. This is indicative of poor and buggy app design.
