They are moving away from FlutterFlow, specifically. That could be a good idea since FlutterFlow is going to have a tough time versus agent assisted coding in Antigravity. However, going to RN is debatable. Flutter has a lot of advantages.
It's not a matter of "can" you do it, it's a matter of needing to do it. Do you make a habit of carrying a gallon of water on your head? You probably don't need to. I don't need to either. I certainly don't need to spend $3500 for the privilege of carrying a gallon of water on my head. Doing so is not necessary or beneficial to my life in any way. I could do it if my life depended on it, but it doesn't.
If the Vision Pro was balanced on top of the head, it would definitely be easier to sustain for a longer period of time, but the weight is attached to the front. That means you're holding it up with your neck muscles instead of straight down your spine.
> you are incentivised to do things the slowest possible way...
Not when you have long-term (multi-years) clients. It's basically a very flexible permanent job, where you are free to bill from 0 up to full 40 or more hours per week.
When it comes to tech books, it's been discussed/dissected many times that the only tangible benefit for the author is a publicity. This is not due to "piracy", but how publishing works. E.g. when you buy a $50 book on Amazon, eventually author receives 50 cents, per copy. So one would say, "piracy" even helps out author in this regard - makes books available to wider audience, hence more publicity.
Ok, if we fallow that line, it's about worthiness in a certain region. And authors/sellers rarely implement regional pricing. Would you pay your one-month or even half-year salary for a random book? Same goes for software. That's why Microsoft encouraged or turned a blind eye on software "piracy" in developing countries, that's the reason Windows and other MS software became standards there. Most of users who "pirate" things won't pay a dime if you restrict it, they will just go find something else, e.g. Linux :)
And this is one of the many issues with invoking the logical positivists here...
I'm not even sure why they were invoked. Even disregarding the big techinical debunks such as two dogmas, sociologically and even by talking to real mathematicians (see Lakatos, historically, but this is true anecdotally too), it's (ironically) a complete non-question to wonder about mathematics in a logical positivist way.
