@GergelyOrosz I am thinking of doing the exact same thing and move over to Revolut

Moved my foreign transfers over to Revolut (which I use as my neobank business account, and works so far without issues)
It's just wild how a company like Wise would not realize that restricting a customer of 4+ years means they will churn, like I have. No more reason to use Wise
English
The story of how I stopped being a Wise customer, years later.
They restricted my account with no way to do anything about it.
Back to transfers done via the bank!
Amusing how Wise has become more customer hostile than traditional banks.

@thsottiaux That's also happening on the web. Some times it stays unresponsive until it ultimately fails.

Core Data: "Here is your new model object. It has ID 123."
Developer: "Thanks. Save it."
CD: "Saved."
Dev: "Give me model object 123."
CD: "No object has that ID."
Dev: "What? You saved it 10 seconds ago."
CD: "Oh, yea, that thing has ID 789 now. Changed it when we saved."
If I could meet the Apple Engineer who designed this idiocy—preferably at the top of a large cliff—that would be swell.

What’s your take @steipete ?

Every major platform in history has run the same play. You’re about to watch it happen again. Jason Calacanis just went on record. He wants it clipped. He wants it shared. Calacanis: “If I was a developer of any kind, I would never work with Sam Altman and OpenAI.” This isn’t pessimism. It’s pattern recognition. And the pattern has a 40 year track record. Open. Invite. Reward. Study. Absorb. Eliminate. Microsoft let developers build Lotus 1-2-3. Then built Excel. Let them build WordPerfect. Then built Word. Flew them to conferences. Handed out awards. Studied everything. Then eliminated them. Zuckerberg ran the exact same play at Facebook. Zynga built billions in value on their platform. Then Zuckerberg shifted them without blinking. Calacanis: “Sam Altman comes from the Zuckerberg school of business. Give people access to your tools, study them, and like the Borg, steal every innovation they have.” This is how platforms grow. They don’t innovate at the edges. They let the ecosystem do it for them. Startups take the risk. Startups find the market. Startups prove the concept. Then the platform ships it natively and calls it a feature. Altman isn’t selling you compute. He’s selling you a front row seat to your own disruption. Calacanis: “This is a warning for anybody dumb enough to use Sam Altman’s OpenAI API. They are studying you.” OpenAI has the legal right to study how you use their API. You agreed to it. It’s in the terms. Every gap you find, you’re finding it for them first. Every dollar you make signals exactly where he should build next. We are at the exact same moment in AI that we were in the early internet. Developers flooded onto platforms. Built incredible things. Created real value. And handed the leverage to whoever owned the infrastructure beneath them. The AI gold rush feels different because the tools are more powerful. It isn’t different. You are not a founder. You are unpaid R&D. The builders who win the next decade won’t be the ones who used the best tools. They’ll be the ones who owned something the tools couldn’t absorb. Proprietary data. Distribution. A brand. A moat. History doesn’t warn you before it repeats. It just repeats. Thousands of developers are walking straight into this right now convinced they’re different. They’re not. Do not build your business on OpenAI. Build something he has to acquire or destroy.

@GergelyOrosz My favorite one is “you want [x process] to be boring”.
The past few weeks I’ve been hitting the block button like crazy.

I am getting fatigue from reading more and more AI-written articles on this platform
I get a sense that it’s AI-written a paragraph or two in, and full certainty by paragraphs 3 or 4. Something about the cliche phrases AI loves to write, the neat and utterly predictable structures, the overused terms…

@camsoft2000 Yeap same results here, half the time goes haywire.

Initial vibe check of GPT-5.3 has been mixed so far; it seems keen to just make decisions without including me. Kind of frustrating.

Codex feels nerfed since yesterday. Goes off-script, fails to scan the code base effectively. Something has changed.

@tkallioras @mariosaputra Aparently fake that you’re using shady tactics to boost your ASO
English
@juanjovn @mariosaputra It already happened to me once, but I thought it was random. What are they trying to achieve with this?
English
@mariosaputra I’ve also received kind of a similar attack, but with scheduled waves of massive redownloads.

@SebJVidal @No_Wham Thanks, yes I’ve seen that before. I’m waiting for adoption to increase to see how stable it is.
English
@tkallioras @No_Wham Interesting, thanks for the info. Just learnt about this which might also be of interest to you? x.com/guitaripod/sta…
English
I promise this isn’t engagement bait but… Swift Data. Yay or nay?
@No_Wham and I are weighing up options for something we’re tinkering on. iOS app, maybe other Apple platforms in the future? Cross-device syncing would be nice.
Firebase seems the easiest option, though.

😱 I just hit the limits of my @cursor_ai ULTRA plan 😭
Still 15 more days until reset...
What should I do?

I see you, and I raise you with this App Store review

this is the most unhinged response to a google review from a business i have ever seen a story in two parts

@alpennec @juanjovn @jazzychad @squeakytoy It’s not an issue in this case though because the availability is never going to change in runtime while the app is launched
English
@juanjovn @jazzychad @squeakytoy Actually you can have OS check between ViewModifiers (#if os(iOS)) as it’s compile time but not OS version check (if #available(iOS 26.0, *)) because it’s run time.
English
I'm torn tbh. When the model is correct, I appreciate it insisting on it. When it's obviously mistaken it can be very frustrating, and creates unnecessary friction, especially when provided with proof, eg in code reviews. Here's a frequent issue. Model: "This won't build...". Dev: "It just compiled successfully". Model: "I'm sure it won't".
What's frustrating is not the insistence itself, but the unwillingness to revisit the assumption and do a proper investigation and search.
English
I am biased obviously, but I like the terseness of our models and GPT-5.2-Codex also won't hesitate to correct you if you are clearly wrong in your assumptions.
But I am curious, what do you all prefer here and what do you want to see improved personality / collaboration wise?
English
Why is this happening so frequently lately? There is nothing in my account indicating I am a minor.

The journey was painful because I started with SwiftData but it wasn’t stable back then, and I soon realized it wouldn’t work. I moved to Realm only to find out mid-development that Mongo would shut it down. I released first version with Realm, and then spent a whole month migrating to SQLite (with GRDB) and I couldn’t be happier now.
English
@tkallioras @azamsharp Exactly. And your data models don’t need to be married to SwiftData. (I mean I guess you could have SwiftData models for persistence and then convert them to structures, but that’s too painful)
