I've been a mobile developer for 15 years and being able to develop two codebases in parallel is by far the best productivity gain LLMs have to offer in this space.

These cross-platform SDKs try too hard to solve a very difficult problem and never last (looking at you Xamarin). My first job was actually working on a Lua framework that was shared between an Android and iOS codebase.

It's far better to tell claude to port your swift+core data implementation to kotlin+room then fix whatever it did then it is to try to debug a complicated view hierarchy that renders incorrectly on a specific Android version because you're framework decided to nest a list in a scroll view.

I'm sure there is some, but it's standard practice to keep at database of all your hands. I've sanity checked the winning regs (at my stakes) and they all make mistakes. I think it helps that in the US all the sites are geography based. It makes it harder and less financially viable to run a bot ring.

Surprisingly, no. Most sites do a good job of finding and banning bots. It's also fairly easy to spot a bot. They will make odd sized bets at times. You check to see if that betting line is taken in a solver.
