Only such an idiot can think that pushing 2 updates a day is a good idea.

[–] unexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.de 185 points 1 month ago

I have some apps that havent been updated for like a year because the simply fucking work.

[–] jonne@infosec.pub 129 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Not to mention, the app is just the thing that calls the API to the server that runs the actual models, it's not a reflection on how quickly you're improving those models. In fact, there should be little reason to push a new app update once you've built it.

[–] Simulation6@sopuli.xyz 40 points 1 month ago

Unless your Ai creates the app. This may be a reflection of how bad Grok really is.

[–] frog@feddit.uk 31 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The reason is so Elon Musk can make his stupid chart implying that more production releases means better in someway.

[–] jonne@infosec.pub 31 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

He's really done a great job at dispelling this image he had of being some kind of genius in the last couple of years.

He’s been doing that the whole time, he just finally got to an area more people online are experts in.

This is such a joke to anyone in tech. It’s like a Silicone Valley skit.

[–] makyo@lemmy.world 43 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I know next to nothing about publishing an app and my alarm bells went off immediately

[–] Fandangalo@lemmy.world 58 points 1 month ago

Here’s 2 faults:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.

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!

[–] CaptDust@sh.itjust.works 107 points 1 month ago

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!

I can make bullshit graphs based on meaningless numbers too. 🤷‍♂️

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

[–] jellyfishhunter@lemmy.world 66 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I have to admit though, getting two app updates per day through the Apple review process is an achievement. (He probably paid them.)

[–] xtr0n@sh.itjust.works 30 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Minor updates for bugfixes don’t require a real store review.

Incredibly misleading and/or stupid graphs are so funny to me. Because you ship out the most updates, doesn't mean it's the best, it means youre fixing and/or generating more bugs and issues.

Yeah, I updated my minecraft mod 20 times in a week, it doesn't mean it's a stellar mod, it's less than mediocre at best. It was primarily fixing bugs and a crash. Meanwhile the Create mod updates about once every three weeks or so on average, but that's because they properly playtest and bugfix and patch and do all that before they send out an actual update.

Turns out AI-written software needs lots of patches to keep up.

[–] simplejack@lemmy.world 40 points 1 month ago

The Nextdoor app updates every two weeks. OpenAI should be worried.

Aren't the front ends for these basically chat interfaces that mostly don't change?

What are they doing so much

[–] gdog05@lemmy.world 34 points 1 month ago

Someone keeps fixing the CSS color coding of an input field border and someone else keeps copy/pasting the old version when they're doing basic edits.

[–] xtr0n@sh.itjust.works 29 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Because their boss is an idiot who will yell at them if they don’t.

If you pay by the update, devs will update their way to a nice payday .

I think it's because grok ships the most bugs, so they have to ship the most patches.

[–] hperrin@lemmy.ca 31 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Why would you need to update the app? It should all run on their servers. This is indicative of poor and buggy app design.

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 31 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Since when does the update of the frontend equate to a better, more accurate, more efficient backend?

[–] goldfndr@lemmy.ml 21 points 1 month ago

To me, it suggests the opposite -- they keep breaking stuff or otherwise putting bugs into their client and Grok isn't very helpful with fixing them.

He knows exactly what he's saying and he knows his dumb followers will buy it...

The fact that most people only skim-read what they scroll through helps him as well. People won't even stop to process what they actually read. With this tweet he's basically selling his followers a feeling.

This is nothing new. Workers trying to fake productivity to fool the capitalists, no matter for what reason capitalists think they deserve.
