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.

I just assume anything he says is either a lie or hallucination

[–] ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one 4 points 4 hours ago

I think Muskie is hallunicating. Lieing implies that he knows the truth. Muskie actually believes in his own fever dreams.

Pathetic.

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

This is why there are a bunch of improvished people adding nonsense updates to git repositories, padding out their resume out of desperation.

It's hard to blame them trying to climb their way out of poverty, but it does harm the people trying to do work.

[–] humanspiral@lemmy.ca 1 points 4 hours ago

I thought Musk was in a ketamine hole when announcing lawsuit against Apple and OpenAI. Waking up briefly to add this legal argument is not proof of not still being in hole.

[–] wulrus@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago

That statement would make a lot more sense with a benchmark graph based on standardised tasks.

i wonder how someone can choose the 10 most salient lines of code ever written

manually summarizing 6 months of commits seems also a thrilling job

[–] alsimoneau@lemmy.ca 4 points 6 hours ago

I submit the fast inverse square root. That code needs to be in a museum.

[–] yarr@feddit.nl 30 points 10 hours ago

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

[–] Wispy2891@lemmy.world 19 points 11 hours ago

iOS appstore app testers hate him!

[–] GissaMittJobb@lemmy.ml 78 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

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.

[–] vivalapivo@lemmy.today 2 points 5 hours ago (2 children)

Why? I genuinely think that daily delivery in my field (b2b specialized software) would be a very good practice. Why in mobile apps it's not the truth?

[–] GissaMittJobb@lemmy.ml 2 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

It's a bit different with mass market mobile applications because of the supply chain constraints - most notably the Apple reviewing process. Your next app release may for whatever reason they feel like unexpectedly take an additional week, so do ensure that your QA is in order before releasing.

Another significant factor is the lack of control you have over the software once released - any bugs you ship may potentially be out there for a long, long time.

Web applications don't have these constraints and can as such be deployed an infinite amount of times per day. The same goes for backend services, deploy to your hearts content.

This basically means that most larger mobile applications have adopted approximately weekly release cadences, and that we've had to get very good at using feature flagging to control our software in the wild, and avoid large impact of shipped bugs.

[–] vivalapivo@lemmy.today 2 points 4 hours ago

Ahhh.. now that makes sense. Thank you, kind stranger!

[–] Jiggle_Physics@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 hours ago

Because the rate is more a sign of how often problems are found, rather than how many better new things you are applying.

[–] Mediocre_Bard@lemmy.world 5 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

They're just fixing more shit, right?

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 1 points 5 hours ago

Sure they are.

[–] umbraroze@slrpnk.net 103 points 17 hours ago

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!

[–] itkovian@lemmy.world 7 points 11 hours ago

Now that's quality shitpost by Elon "Dumbass" Musk.

[–] melsaskca@lemmy.ca 5 points 11 hours ago

Oh Elon. You lying sack of shit. Go sell your wares elsewhere.

It's really not that hard!

His rocket is not that hard

Producing rockets faster than they can explode during launch!

Outproducing the blastwave. Bold strategy 🤣

Cheaper to dispose of them in the upper atmosphere than in the ground

[–] SethTaylor@lemmy.world 23 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago) (1 children)

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.

[–] ayyy@sh.itjust.works 18 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago) (1 children)

No, he really is that stupid and clueless. How do you still not see that?

[–] ganryuu@lemmy.ca 2 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago) (1 children)

I'll be the first to admit that I fell for his (initially) near perfect PR that crafted the industry genius image he's still coasting on to this day. Of course that took a nosedive when he started calling a rescuer "pedo" for pointing out the stupidity of his rescue submarine idea. But it wasn't until he started talking about IT that I finally started to understand he wasn't an average CEO manipulating public opinion to his advantage, but an absolute moron who actually never had any idea of what he was talking about. Yes the dude is that stupid, but good PR is actually hard to completely take down.

[–] JcbAzPx@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago)

Yeah, taking bolt cutters to a colo to forcibly remove half of Twitter's redundancy was a breaking the camel's back moment. He really thinks grandiose metaphorical displays like carrying a sink with him to a new job are more important than actually producing anything.

[–] simplejack@lemmy.world 39 points 20 hours ago

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

[–] Thekingoflorda@lemmy.world 344 points 1 day ago (7 children)

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

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

[–] jonne@infosec.pub 119 points 1 day ago (5 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.

jfc this guy is such a moron

[–] raspberriesareyummy@lemmy.world 42 points 21 hours ago

I knew the Apartheid shithead was dumb as fuck, but even "as fuck" isn't that dumb...

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 79 points 1 day ago

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

[–] Fandangalo@lemmy.world 209 points 1 day ago (5 children)

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

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 3 points 12 hours ago
[–] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 6 points 15 hours ago

I’m nowhere close to tech and this is obviously a bad sign. Imagine an apartment complex trying to get new tenants by advertising that they have plumbers and exterminators do work twice a day at various units.

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

[–] goldfndr@lemmy.ml 20 points 19 hours 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.
