That’s not even how the development process works, but i guess your “respect” means a lot these days

I posted a response in another reply but thats for sharing something. still does not support the claim of dog-shit developers

it’s wild that someone who doesn’t program would degrade others who can because the majority of developers who use ai-based tools.

If it degrades brains with use in writing Essays.

The study does not prove that claim. Better to link directly to the study https://arxiv.org/abs/2506.08872

The study does suggest only relying on ChatGPT could reduce engagement in the specific task of essay writing and harms recall. It does not prove ChatGPT is causing individuals to become less intelligent in the act of programming.

There are many studies that shows the potential positive outcomes when utilizing LLMs

if that makes you feel better, but i wish you responded to the original claim with data vs ad hominem. but if you’re so good can i view your github to learn how you program?

a career that requires one to know exactly how their code works in case it breaks

Using AI doesn’t mean that you lose the ability to reason, debug, or test generated code. All code merge should be peer-reviewed and tested

We’re not discussing images, nor planes.

The claim was tech savvy people, the same people who are most opposed to AI.

There’s data that to suggest otherwise. people who are technically inclined engage with AI more and have a more positive reception compared to less experienced users.

Unless you have additional data to support that they are in-fact “dog-shit programmers”, this appears to be an emotional claim colored by your own personal bias. Though if you’re a “pure” programmer who is better than the dog-shit developers I would love to see some of your work or writings.

an elitist response.

here’s actual data https://survey.stackoverflow.co/2025/ai

half use AI tools daily

Professionals show a higher overall favorable sentiment (61%) than those learning to code (53%).

the same people who are most opposed to AI.

programmers almost exclusively use LLM

After reading this, I installed the local server and just routed the extension there. Took less than 20 min.

My only concern is the desktop app has no server selection setting.

im not sure i agree.

i’ve heard similar arguments against rap music that it’s not actually music or that producers aren’t musicians if they sample. people always try to diminish new forms by being elitist

they could but it would harm a lot of organic growth since they rely on content being easily shared.

i don’t think they will do chrome only as that would be anticompetitive

titanium backup has been made obsolete by swift backup

If we’re talking about loading apps - as in the subject of this post - pretty much exactly the same. Registered developer account, a walled garden ecosystem, etc.

they’re not the same at all. even after this registration change fully rolls out it will still be much easier to sideload apks on android than ipa on ios.

you cannot distribute updates at all on ios without their review and there’s no ability to sideload with random apps. you can now and still can easily do this on android especially for registered businesses that do sideloading.

i work professionally releasing on both platforms and it’s so much easier releasing to production vs apple who suddenly rejected future updates until i changed the screenshots to fit their aesthetic.

they’re not “pretty much exactly the same” for developers nor consumers.

it would have to get much worse in order for an android enthusiast to move to a worse platform for developers.

they would rather go full linux than ios

can i a(i)db on iphone to permanently install applications?

That is true, but rooted devices, non-certfied android devices, and adb still allows users to sideload without restriction though the direction is concerning.

Unfair competition: The DMA’s rules only apply to Apple, even though Samsung is the smartphone market leader in Europe, and Chinese companies are growing fast. Apple has led the way in building a unique, innovative ecosystem that others have copied — to the benefit of users everywhere. But instead of rewarding that innovation, the DMA singles Apple out while leaving our competitors free to continue as they always have.

I don’t get this? isn’t samsung android based which allows sideloading by defaul?

oh wow this is crazy.

gotta keep the kids safe from pinterest lmao

besides input lag, and motion blur

you can use adb without unlocking bootloader
