> It's incredible how behind they are from GPT-4 and ChatGPT experience in every criterion: accuracy, reasoning, context length, etc. Bard doesn't even have character streaming.

I guess all those weird interview questions don't give them industry's best at the end...


> I don't like apps that are just a wrapper to a web view...

Devs are just too aware that they do it to maximise profits and not to maximise UX quality. It's just like Linux guys building console tools and pretending they are better than a (good) UI.


Well, if one is an advocate of PWAs, wrapping it in an app store app should provide an equivalently good and perhaps more user-accessible experience, no?

So my point wasn't to point at the junk apps like, say, the CVS or ATT apps which are simply a web view to a shitty website that is itself just a poorly written skimcoat over a mainframe.

I'm talking about people who put a lot of effort into the web site and then turned it into an app as well to make it easier to run. I'm saying that those provide a crummy experience in practice as well, because in practice I think the web browser experience is rarely that good for anything more than simple functionality.


Might be worth doing some reading about hackers and their attitude towards "IP" and whether it can really be "theft".
