xtr0n@sh.itjust.worksto News@lemmy.world•Gordon Ramsay reveals skin cancer diagnosis: 'Please don’t forget your sunscreen this weekend'8·16 days agoIs it possible that we get less natural UV protection from the atmosphere now? I’m just making a wild guess but we’ve had so many environmental changes and climate change has made summers so much more severe.
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
Nah. It’s most likely not that direct. If the boss makes it clear that they measure productivity by blindly adhering to some dumb metric (number of updates , kloc, number of bugfixes) then the devs will find a way to max out that stat, to get bonuses, promos, etc.
As much as the author has shown his ass, this is the classic comic that comes to mind https://www.reddit.com/r/ProgrammerHumor/comments/k5hka0/bug_free_programs_a_dilbert_classic/
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 .
Minor updates for bugfixes don’t require a real store review.

xtr0n@sh.itjust.worksto BoycottUnitedStates@europe.pub•JD Vance turned away from British pub after staff threatens mutiny37·1 month agoWe need this energy in the US. None of these ghouls should be able to get any goods and services anywhere. I recall seeing the crowd boo when he went to a play, but I didn’t see a headline like “play canceled “ or “vance forced to leave after audience refused to stop booing “. It’s not enough to let them know that they are hated, they need a full on shunning. They need actual consequences.
And/or a pint of heavy cream.
Although, there is absolutely amazing indulgent food in Los Angeles. There is great healthy food but it isn’t all Erwhon smoothies.

xtr0n@sh.itjust.worksto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Ads when you’re pumping gasEnglish1·3 months agoI wonder if that could be considered an ADA violation since some autistic folks may be overwhelmed by the super sudden and loud noise?

xtr0n@sh.itjust.worksto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Ads when you’re pumping gasEnglish2·3 months agoI default to having a meltdown, smashing the screen, yelling “where is the goddamn mute button”.
Is this unhinged, yes. But if we all did it, they would eventually get the message.
Really though, I mostly get gas at Costco cuz it’s cheaper and they don’t do that shit.
xtr0n@sh.itjust.worksto News@lemmy.world•Tesla share plunge amid Trump feud wipes $152bn off Elon Musk’s company12·3 months agoMaybe someday. 🤞🏾And then Phoney Stark won’t have to worry about whether we’re taxing billionaires enough 🙏🏾
xtr0n@sh.itjust.worksto News@lemmy.world•Tesla share plunge amid Trump feud wipes $152bn off Elon Musk’s company61·3 months agoIt was lower in April and March. The stock had been oscillating wildly between $375 and $225 all year and has no relation to any of the actual finances of the company. Considering that the budget bill under consideration could remove the clean energy credits that keep the company in the black, the stock should be much lower.
xtr0n@sh.itjust.worksto Just Post@lemmy.world•The median age of homebuyers is now up to 56.6·3 months agoSome of the buyers acquiring multiple properties for investment but some are just switching homes, getting bigger houses for growing families, upgrading to better locations or downsizing empty nesters. Older folks often sell their homes to buy something without stairs or with less maintenance. I suspect that fewer people are able to ever become 1st time buyers so all of the activity among homeowners has a larger impact on the median. :(
I really need to switch to android. I don’t love google but the popups are killing my soul
xtr0n@sh.itjust.worksto politics @lemmy.world•‘The Enemy Within’: Jamie Dimon Flips the Script on Trump, Warns Mismanagement Could Bring Down the U.S.79·4 months agoWe’re supposed to believe that these “job creators” and “titans of industry” are next level geniuses who clearly rose to the top on only their merits (and bootstraps) while they were seemingly incapable of predicting that a 2nd Trump term would be a financial disaster? I hope all these ghouls who donated to our dear fascist get everything they deserve.
Yeah. Looks like it.
