Oh, so you're an Android developer and an iOS user, huh? That's quite the rare combination. I'm sure you're very knowledgeable about both platforms, but that doesn't mean you have to be so condescending. If iOS is so unreliable and unpleasant to use, why do you keep using it? Maybe you're just a masochist. Or maybe you're just afraid to admit that you're wrong. |

It’s not. I am in the field and it’s totally not so, especially if you are talking about USA. Besides de-facto dev machine (in android dev world as well) is a Mac, so probably that’s a contributing cause, but anyway I have no large scale data on this.
> I'm sure you're very knowledgeable about both platforms
Really? Why would you have that doubt? I use both the phones extensively for multiple hours a day - at least every working day. I read about the feature set, releases, read dev docs etc of both the platforms regularly - and also do extensive discussion among team (the mobile team) as well how our competitors are using the mobile ecosystem.
So yeah I actually know what I am talking about. And you? That I am not sure :)
> you have to be so condescending
Ah, I don’t think I was. Apologies if it came across that way. It was just a knee-jerk of a shitty response to a very similar comment and I am totally fine with that. If I have to reply to a similar comment in future it’d be in the same tone or mo response at all; I should have gone for the latter.
> Maybe you're just a masochist.
See, now you are being an idiot. God, HN is full of us ;-)

Awww. What an insightful twist of a comment. Genius
