How often do you need to push app updates in practice? In theory that's a one-off deployment on the app-stores.


There's usually some random mandatory updates I have to do about 1-2 times a year, so you need updates even with no development.

My React-Native wrapper app handles native auth and native payments, so I occasionally need to tweak that, but it's rare.

I'm considering a rewrite in Capacitor so I can change those things without modifying the mobile app. It's not that releasing the mobile app is a big deal, but it's that it can take many weeks for users to update the mobile app, so I have to keep the website backwards compatible with the old mobile app. It makes testing new checkout flows and stuff more difficult.

Another one a parent strongly recommended was Numberblocks, entertaining stories around maths, visualizing patterns etc.


How do you feed them large code bases usually?


Use an AI-supporting editor like Cursor, or GitHub CoPilot, or perhaps Sonnet 3.7's GitHub integration.


Makes me sick to my stomach, this is such an evil stance as they're directly involved in the warcrimes, and deserves far more attention by boycotts.



It actually does, there's a number on the top-right, right of Auto. Goes from 9[1] to 154, and then 154 2.0x zoom which seems like a digital zoom at that stage[2].
