  • If you “vibe code” your way through trial and error to an app, it may work.
    But if you don’t understand what it’s doing, why it’s doing it and how it’s doing it?
    Then you can’t (easily) maintain it.
    If you can’t fix bugs or add features, you don’t have a saleable product - you have a proof of concept.

    AI tools are useful, but letting the tool do all the driving is asking for the metaphorical car to crash.

    Me: Hi, I need some high quality components, you know better than office stuff, and I’m willing to pay a premium. Company: Great, we have a huge range. And as a bonus we’ve covered EVERYTHING in LEDs! Me: Err, can I get the good mechanical switches and silent fans without LEDs? Company: Ooh, that’s a SPECIAL item! 3x the price!







  • The OTHER thing that could cause stuttering is if it needs to be transcoding and that transcode is happening slower than realtime (unlikely to be happening here).

    You’d look in the logs for a transcode log for this sort of thing:

    frame=  408 fps= 82 q=37.0 size=N/A time=00:00:15.51 bitrate=N/A speed= 3.1x

    frame= 1189 fps=198 q=20.0 size=N/A time=00:00:48.04 bitrate=N/A speed=8.01x
    

    if the speed drops below 1.0x, you’ll stutter.

    I can’t think of a standalone gui app that does this (and a simple google search didn’t find one).
    If you have a gui desktop (gnome,kde,xfce,lxqt,enlightenment,budgie…) it will have a built in function in it’s settings to do this, or leverage one of the parent ones (ie budgie is based on gnome, lxqt on kde).
    If your custom environment is pared down to the point where you don’t have an equivalent to gnome-system-tools and don’t want to install it, you might have to just use date at the command line.









  • I agree and use Signal myself.
    But people like the extra features of WhatsApp like desktop/web clients with seamless history sync and all the other little things that WhatsApp provides.
    The average Joe doesn’t even think about security or privacy, they just know that the results of using WhatsApp are superior than using SMS.
    iMessage is a non starter everywhere out of the US, it just doesn’t have the market penetration.
    As an Australian, no one I know (many of whom own iPhones) talk about the blue-green bubble stuff.
    They recognise where the fault lies and simply don’t use the app.

    Funnily enough, I’ve got a few friends who are long time iPhone users, who actually point this stuff out themselves:

    “OMG! Have you seen the eye watering price of the new one?”
    “Yay, I finally get stuff you’ve had for years.”

    Neither party would ever consider anything else, and they both buy the new model every year. 🤷

    At this point I admit that my reasons for choosing Android all those years ago no longer exist or matter, but I can’t imagine changing ecosystem either.
