RE: May 30 Days Writing Challenge - Day Eleven: What’s More Important For Steemit Right Now: Smart Media Tokens or Hivemind?
A-fooking-men!
I mean, I cannot applaud this first sentence enough. I've been in technology since 1985, and any other company operating like stinc and dependant on real outside investors or with a board controlling the executives would be dead as doornails by now.
HF20 surely is another nail in the coffin of waterfall. Or maybe just in the performance of post-Dan Steemit Inc?
At this point I would be happy just with a fluorescent unicorn background even. At least we would see something being shipped, right?
The difference in message about the mobile app is unforgivable and proves that there’s something seriously wrong in the tech org of Steemit Inc.
How can it “not be as good as you want” after all that time? Surely wireframes existed and the app was developed accordingly.
Or should we read in between the lines and face the reality that the codebase sucks because that ranks otherwise among the slowest app approvals EVER by Apple Inc. Which usually is a testimony of shit code. Simple as. Many manage to get their app approved at first attempt.
In fact, I currently have 4 indie developed Steem apps for iOS installed on my phone. Indie meaning no gazillions of ninja-mined Steem available to fund development. 🤷♂️
Addendum: just saw this image and while not totally related it totally is.
haha great photo. So on my resume is over 4 years as Director of Technology for a social networking app that ran on desktops, iphones and android. Having been through the submission processes with my teams products over the years, I agree with you once again. Obviously you have some time in the biz, unlike the student driver interns driving the ship over at our favorite nicely coiffed dev shop.
Even when our app blew it with major fails, we could appeal and get the apps out the door in less than 3 days in every single case, and when they didn't blow up, we got them out within the same day in most cases. You can even take a fast track option and accelerate that review in many cases for routine oop's that need a do-over on a release.
But hey, speaking of slow releases, aren't we still waiting on milestone items from 2016, 2017 and expected-already 2018 releases? Oh yeah... we are.
But do you like the new logo and pencil button though?
Ah those roadmaps.
I think first thing they did when going agile was icebox the main task for 2016: find a CEO.
Because that’s what Steemit Inc. needs most and we definitely deserve.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
You sir are a new hero of mine for that one remark alone! :D
