I'm a developer, but just to play devil's advocate... think about the end user. Having a review process (though, Apple can improve theirs, see below) helps protect the end user. Programmers, companies, etc. can't just repeatedly push updates non-stop, starting with half-baked apps, iterating too quickly. How do you have a check process that ensures an app is up to standard and "safe"? In addition, the time cost to release adds value to a release, hopefully helping it be more thought out, bringing more value to the user.

Again though... I think the point is that Apple could have a better review process that A) values the developer more and B) shouldn't take as long. I agree with that.

Nice.

Do you have any sites that support the flow yet?

Thanks for sharing!

Your game looks like a lot of fun, and the concept is really cool. Would you mind telling us more about your process and the technical aspects?

Woah- this is my first time seeing a Jocko quote on HN. Nice!

And it makes sense- even if the team is "objectively bad", a good leader will help transform them.

Why was this downvoted? sneak brings up good points.

plebes... a great word I don’t hear often!

The desktop experience, at least for me, has been amazing. Very fast and clean.

The download times for messages / etc have been MUCH slower recently. I’m thinking it’s because of the load they are experiencing. As more people donate and as they scale for the load I imagine (and hope) it might even be faster than it was before.
