      am I the only one annoyed by so frequent updates???

      I am already pissed off one can not disable automatic download of updates, one can disable the updates app completely, but I would prefer to manually check for updates and review available update before downloading not to completely disable updates

      then after applying updates it takes ages "optimizing apps" see this screenshot, only 8 optimized apps out of 35 and it has taken 19 minutes already and in the meantime the phone is very slow and overheated :(

                                                                                                                                                                                                                    What makes this particularly interesting is that much of bb’s own functionality was built using the same extension system available to users.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                    The underlying idea is compelling: software doesn’t necessarily need to anticipate every use case anymore. It can provide solid fundamentals and then let AI adapt the software to the user.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                    And because bb is open source and MIT licensed, the code is yours to modify and extend.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                    We’re moving from “Here’s the software we built for you.” to “Here’s the software. Now tell it what you want it to become.” That’s a pretty significant shift in how we might think about developer tools and software in general.
