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

Elon Musk is a parody of himself

[–] bentcheesee@lemmy.zip 42 points 3 days ago (1 children)

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.

[–] Nelots@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Two weeks is also such a random and unimpressive statistic.

[–] Baizey@feddit.dk 1 points 8 hours ago

It's generally the length of short sprints (blocks of time where some tasks have been estimated/committed for)

If you're deploying a new version more frequently than that it's usually either putting out fires & hot fixing, or someone fucked up the pipeline and now any commit will immediately be deployed straight to prod

[–] Thekingoflorda@lemmy.world 339 points 4 days 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 122 points 3 days ago (2 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.

[–] Simulation6@sopuli.xyz 38 points 3 days ago

Unless your Ai creates the app. This may be a reflection of how bad Grok really is.

[–] frog@feddit.uk 30 points 3 days ago (1 children)

The reason is so Elon Musk can make his stupid chart implying that more production releases means better in someway.

[–] jonne 31 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (2 children)

He's really done a great job at dispelling this image he had of being some kind of genius in the last couple of years.

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!

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

[–] makyo@lemmy.world 43 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I know next to nothing about publishing an app and my alarm bells went off immediately

[–] Fandangalo@lemmy.world 57 points 3 days ago

Here’s 2 faults:

  1. Most people push a build once a week, because making a stable build usually has an engineer combining people’s work, and sometimes there’s conflicts in the merge.
  2. If you have a lot of bugs, you may need to patch more frequently.

Either way, it’s a bad look. Doing stable daily pushes is good in development, not in a live environment like this.

Having to do the most amount of bug fixes for the app (that does not run the AI itself) is not the flex you think it is

[–] yarr@feddit.nl 31 points 3 days ago

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

Yeah and my company has the best dev team because we resolve all the critical incidents we cause by shipping buggy code.

Some of these other loser companies don’t even have incidents!

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 78 points 3 days 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

[–] CaptDust@sh.itjust.works 102 points 4 days ago

Lol equating your busted as fuck code that needs constant patching with growth. Gonna keep that around for my own metrics. Yeah boss this is the 9th hotfix to prod this week! Think where we'll be next month, things are going awesome!

[–] simplejack@lemmy.world 39 points 3 days ago

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

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

[–] jellyfishhunter@lemmy.world 65 points 4 days ago (2 children)

I have to admit though, getting two app updates per day through the Apple review process is an achievement. (He probably paid them.)

[–] xtr0n@sh.itjust.works 29 points 4 days ago (3 children)

Minor updates for bugfixes don’t require a real store review.

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.

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

[–] hperrin@lemmy.ca 30 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Why would you need to update the app? It should all run on their servers. This is indicative of poor and buggy app design.

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 19 points 3 days ago

It's evolving!

Aren't the front ends for these basically chat interfaces that mostly don't change?

What are they doing so much

[–] gdog05@lemmy.world 32 points 4 days ago

Someone keeps fixing the CSS color coding of an input field border and someone else keeps copy/pasting the old version when they're doing basic edits.

[–] xtr0n@sh.itjust.works 27 points 4 days ago (2 children)

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 .

I once had to push this much updates (not to production tho) because QA monkeys kept finding (or making up) issues. Am I evolving faster than any other AI?

To me, that just looks like "move fast and break things" taken to an extreme level. Quantity ≠ quality. Honestly, I think it kinda makes the other companies look better, in terms of software quality.

(I'm going solely by the chart though; I have not installed any of these apps)
