If the conversation is
> Software engineering does not put safety first
I'm 100% agreed.
If the conversation is
> The PinePhone has less quality control than Android/iOS
It's patently false
I would parse the article as the second, as it's referring to a specific phone throughout
- Shared404 6y agoI read it as the first, with a side of "We need to do this or FL/OSS hardware is going to look bad". And I concur about the second being patently false. I would guess that it has more overall tbh.
- sangnoir 6y ago> It's patently false That's a strawman: author never compared to Android/iOS. What they did spell out,is that some of the code they found is unsafe (e.g. commented-out code to prevent false alerts, that was never being reimplemented in a safer way).
- megous 6y ago>> The PinePhone has less quality control than Android/iOS > It's patently false PinePhone is just HW. Android/iOS is SW. Comparison doesn't make sense. Maybe compare PinePhone to Huawei Honor, or Xiaomi and their HW testing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tvRTY6sBPeE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tvRTY6sBPeE
