The simplest reason is that the revenue per user is orders of magnitude higher on iOS than on any other platform. On average. As a business it makes sense to focus on your paying customers than non-paying. It's not that they don't want to support everything it's just that they prioritize their paying customers.

I unfortunately don't know much about mobile app and desktop software dev so I'm genuinely asking: WHY DO ALL COMPANIES RELEASE iOS/macOS PRODUCTS FIRST/ONLY??? How hard is it to release Android and Windows versions of your product? Recent example is the Sora app, which is only released for iOS, with Android coming later. This means Android users like myself cannot do Cameos, and are missing out on the internet moment. I've seen many other products that are iOS/macOS-only and it's really frustrating that I cannot use them at all. Why would you purposefully cut out like half of the population who can use your software?! How hard is it to take a little bit of extra time to add Android/Windows support to your products? I thought companies like OpenAI have the best coding agents and tools... why don't they just use them to port over their software to Android and Windows?! Seriously, what is the limiting factor here, I must know.

RIP Charlie Kirk, may your passing inspire a new wave of tolerance in this world. We sorely need it ❤️

@Betraydan I’m trying not to be negative here but the more I use it the more frustrating it is. 100 agree on toning down, too many animations and visual noise

For what it’s worth liquid glass is not practical if you really think about it. Toning it down makes total sense to me.

Regarding Apple Glass, not sure why I’m not seeing folks talk about this but iOS 7 went through some mega iterations from beta 1. What you’re seeing now is the result of Apples work that has to occur in private, now that it’s public, more teams will contribute to solve the issues.

@Betraydan So far I’m mixed, asked a simple question and it took about 5 minutes vs 10 seconds on Perplexity. If anything if it can be more like Arc then that would be great

@Betraydan Nice Nunchucks! 🥷

It’s a minimal yet honest setup. 🙂

He's correct, this is genuinely one of the most awesome websites around. Highly recommend on desktop. Stunning throwback!

The important thing people are forgetting about the Ai pin is that it’s a 1.0. All the flaws are software related and obviously going to be fixed. The key piece is the vision and I feel like that’s landing perfectly. Very excited for what’s ahead

Reminds me of the original iPhone reviews (“We Predict the iPhone Will Bomb”). Not suggesting this is the same but I’ve always been skeptical of v1 reviews. I for one am eager for a technological future with less screen time and more presence 🤷 really wish that team luck. bgr.com/tech/iphone-re…

“The AI Pin is an interesting idea that is so thoroughly unfinished and so totally broken in so many unacceptable ways that I can’t think of anyone to whom I’d recommend spending the $699 for the device and the $24 monthly subscription.” theverge.com/24126502/human…

It’s wild to me that this xz thing is one of the most insane exploits, 2 years in the making, that had the potential to do more damage than anyone can fathom, is discovered by pure luck by a developer noticing a 500ms lag… and there is nothing in the news about this. Real heroes really don’t wear capes 🦸

@riggaroo Kotlin and Java yo! Was definitely not part of my 2024 bingo card that’s for sure. We have our own fork of android for payment terminals so I’m still able to resist a personal device ;) still pinching myself but it’s so much fun!

@danielgalasko Are you writing Kotlin now?😨 or just using an Android device 😇 Never thought I'd hear of this day!

I have a new and profound respect for Android developers now that I’ve been on the platform for a few months. It’s unquestionably easier to transition from Android to iOS than vice versa. iOS really is like playing with legos where Android is playing with the whole kitchen. Mad respect!

Really excited to be part of the first wave of customers for the Ai Pin from @Humane Love the idea of a new OS that doesn’t require my eyes glued to a screen, can take photos and memories while I remain in the moment, and can answer so many ad hoc questions and juggle the tasks I need to do in life.

Honestly can’t stop thinking about this study. Dancing is *dramatically* more effective than our best attempts at treating depression, pharmaceutical or not. It clearly has *massive* psychological benefits. But how often do you dance? Do you ever do it sober? Did your therapist recommend dancing? Are you on SSRIs but never dancing? If this replicates and is taken seriously it’s potentially life changing for so many people. I gotta dance more.

@jlocraf Amen!! iOS is ready made food you just put in the microwave 😂

@danielgalasko Haha. We've switched over to Flutter so I'm kinda doing both now. Will agree there's more hand holding on getting iOS stuff setup. But it still drives me crazy. If you're used to be able to do everything in the kitchen, having a Cook (ha!) tell you what to do is frustrating

@sdw @samsheffer I would love to get these diapers you speak of 😂

@samsheffer This thing looks like it’s wearing a diaper.

Tesla Cybertruck prototype in SF what a wild vehicle

@Betraydan I would argue most base model customers never transmit anything via cable ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The iPhone 15 base model is only USB 2.0 - I feel like Apple did the majority of customers dirty with that choice. I mean it's 2023.

@svpino Couldn't agree more. I firmly believe that the furthest anyone should venture is towards the agile manifesto -> agilemanifesto.org anything beyond is bound to bring pain and no results.

I wrote, "Scrum is a cancer," and the Internet had thoughts about it. After 3,400 replies, I learned a few things: First, the most common jobs among the people who told me I was wrong were "Agile Coach" and "Scrum Master." They feel very strongly in favor of Scrum, but I'm not sure why. Second, Scrum can't fail because Scrum is whatever you want Scrum to be. There's no right way to do Scrum, so if it doesn't work for you, you aren't as bright as you thought you were. Third, Scrum isn't agile, except when it is. But it's much better than Waterfall, except when it isn't. And it's better than nothing and everything at the same time. Fourth, many people got triggered by my comparison of Scrum and communism. They say communism is great but recognize they have never lived in a communist society. They keep mentioning this book they read and how every person who shed blood under communism was "doing communism wrong." Finally, by far, most people hate Scrum with passion. No matter how you look at it, Scrum is a failure.
