which country are you from?

Going by the username, I'm guessing India or perhaps Bangadesh

India it is

The "value" of Reddit as a platform is knowing that people ORGANICALLY liked content. Otherwise, just go to an aggregator. These sock puppet accounts were there to deceive, no doubt. Obviously, they are "different" in some ways, but deceptive nonetheless.

They didn't fake voting, they faked submissions.

So you could clearly tell if people liked or didn't like something.

So, essentially, there is a root company called China, Inc. Correct?

Exactly. Not strictly China Inc, but SASAC (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State-owned_Assets_Supervision...)

Can this record just native apps (i.e. non websites)?

Unfortunately not

iOS guardrails make that pretty much impossible

I had to accepts some tradeoffs to get this specific collection of features, Face Cam, touches, etc…

I’ve heard Android might allow more, and I’ll be looking into an Android port soon.

Looks like it is possible if you do a normal iOS screen recording, then use your app to add the Face Cam and touches on top.

Yes, it’s possible to do composite edits after a screen recording

The tradeoffs here were aimed at doing it all live in a single take

Hey, that's a great analogy, 10/10! This explains in a few words what an entire article might explain.

Woah, that's huge coming from you. This comment itself is worth an article. Do it. Call it "AI tools make development harder work".

P.s. always thought you were one of those irrational AI bros. Later, found that you were super reasonable. That's the way it should be. And thank you!

If you’d read the entire article, you wouldn’t ask why his character is called into question. The receipts are documented.

That's a one-sided article. You should read Michael's replies + other people who've been to Codesmith.

Use your real account michael

Oh, I also defended Michael. Not a fan of character assassinations / witch hunts / exaggerated claims.

Doesn't come across as a narcissist to me. He's just giving his side. Sure, he might have done things that were not right, but the article paints him as a monster. You should but yourself in his shoes? Are you squeaky clean? What if someone took something that you did that was grey, and framed you as a monster?

The article came with receipts. Novati's defenses come across as a raving lunatic, all with unsubstantiated claims. And considering that it has been widely claimed in that subreddit, also with evidence, about his use of sockpuppets, I'm now extremely suspicious of the people running to his defense as well.

Novati's response also came with receipts. Check his other comments. And check his prev responses on Reddit, including open support for Codemsith, and we he fell out with them.

The receipts in the article were meh. Backed by other "bootcamps" testimonies. The article read like a hit piece, with exaggereated language. And it did not mention he was against other bootcamps as well.

And, not knocking down Codesmith at all, but I think there marketing might be a little exaggerated. Which is typical of many bootcamps.

Oh, one more thing. All of these "bootcamp" companies are known to be bad, and HN knows this. Perhaps "Codesmith" is better, I can believe that. I did a quick search, and it does seem like it's above the pack. I'm not trying to knock down Codesmith, the founder Will seems genuine. but it's still very plausible it has some of the same "badness" of bootcamps, at least according to Michael. And one might ask, why did Michael focus on Codesmith? The answer is two-fold. 1) he targeted other bootcamps as well 2) and Codesmith claimed explicitly they were unlike other bootcamps, and Michael was on a personal "jihad" to make sure they were called out.
