   Why can't you wait for a week? That doesn't sound like a long time.

      For apps with a scale, it's a long time

      1. carlosjobim · 1789562674 · focus · HN ↗

         Because? People wait far longer for much more important things in real life.

            Speed is money. Yes people wait for 9 months for having a baby, doesn't mean you should wait 9 months for an app release. That is not a sound logic.

               Yes, but one week to wait for your app is nothing to complain about.

                  let's say you have a bug that makes your app unusable. If you can't get an update our for a week - people are going to just stop using your app.

                     You shouldn't have shipped that bug in the first place, I would say. If the bug comes from an Android update, I assume that developers have had access to betas long before the system update is rolled out.

                        Why do you think apple has point releases that fix... Bugs every time? Not necessarily new features but bugs.

                        Lesson in there.

                           Do you mean that these point releases introduce bugs that break third party software?

                              I decided not to engage with you. Not productive.
