  • That model always had the tacit agreement that the company releases early, and the users accept that they are part of a large testing base with one or two major updates to come. Further to this, continued support in the early life drives more sales. There’s a spectrum of users from bleeding edge to 4 versions behind. Some will hold out and never upgrade if key bugs remain, so updates make business sense. Software of this complexity has to be this way to strike a balance to move new features forward.


  • I love this comment just for the fact you point out that no one really thinks about you and even if they do, their opinion isn’t relevant.

    I myself am 50 and I gave up many years ago even considering what other people think about me, as long as I behave in an ethical and kind way.

    This to say, I cannot imagine the daily stress of today’s generation, where every moment is spent disingenuously performing for others on SM and trying to get them to notice you







  • In a way yes. There are times when I am so sick of dealing with people who cannot organize their thoughts - it becomes just exhausting.

    So consistently being the most analytical, on-the-ball, ahead of the curve, able to predict the future, able to see-through people within seconds of meeting them, being generally good at most things, adept automatically the first time I try anything… It’s a burden.

    But at the same time I’m not so dumb to think I don’t choose this burden.
