Ask HN: How Do You Maintain Security When Working Remotely?

As an Android dev who was forced to create my app for IOS because a huge chunk of users are on IOS, the whole process of developing for IOS gave me brain cancer.

XCode (like itunes) is a worthless piece of garbage. It's unfucking unbelievable how little this "IDE" accomplishes. And uploading to app store (with certificates, provisioning profiles, launch images, icons etc) sucked all the brain juice out of me.

The error messages are even much more cryptic than Windows 95. Why on earth is this piece of locked up abomination so popular? Why are we crying about freedom from government so much and then rushing to buy this crapware?

I dropped Ubuntu after three sequential bad quality upgrades (blocking bugs, lost configuration for upgraded packages, Unity). I won't use Windows because the command line isn't unix-style. Remains Mac OS X. Never had a single day of administration. What we need is open-source with a budget...

Because for the end user it offers a clean high-quality user experience with minimal friction.

That is more powerful than anything else. It's more powerful than cost or freedom, and the developers can suck it.

Microsoft was always shit for developers too, but it gave users what they want and users pay.
