Time for a mini-rant. If I weren’t at work, I might have bothered to expand it into a full-fledged rant.
Software is unreliable. Especially now that we have the Internet, the first version can be terribly buggy, but we can just download patches when they’re released, or even have the software update itself. How wonderful.
And this philosophy has taken hold in other industries too, especially and more and more things are firmware-upgradable. Even my keyboard has firmware updates now.
It can just be terribly frustrating that companies don’t stand behind their work.
