They don't, the program keeps using the old library until it's restarted. Some Linux distributions restart daemons when they or their dependent libraries are updated, but that can't be done for desktop software. Firefox sometimes notices it's been updated and pops up a warning with a "Restart Firefox" button (which keeps the session state), though AFAIK it's only for updates to Firefox itself, not for any of the libraries it might have loaded.

If you never restart a Linux desktop (or at least log out), you will be running outdated libraries, even if you run updates in the background.

(The best solution would be what Android does, where every program is supposed to know how to checkpoint itself, and they are forcefully restarted on a upgrade, transparently to the user. But even there, updates to system libraries still require a full reboot.)

Also for forcing restarts for everything. Back when I cared I needed to I used to use ksplice to patch linux without rebooting. If Microsoft made something like this it would stop people switching off the updates.

> every couple of months the SD card gets corrupted.

You may want to check your power supply before switching to USB storage. In my case, the corrupt SD card turned out to be an issue with the power adapter I bought for the raspi Model 3B. Switching to a better 2A adapter fixed the issue.
That's the real problem of course: we're dependent on food we can't grow, and houses we can't build, and that makes us unfree. If everybody was automatically provided with the basic necessities, we'd be free to negotiate on a more equal footing.
That only happens if you put the updates off of they've been there for a couple of days and you have something running that makes it assume that the machine is still active. People seeding torrents overnight seems to be the only place I see that not happen.

See update notifications? At the end of the day, restart and install the updates. It's not rocket science. It doesn't just hit patch Tuesday and then reboot immediately, shafting you. And it doesn't screw your workflow up.

Really this has to be done because even the best of us put it off eternally.
Personally I consider a computer "real" if you can use it to write its own software. Until you can actually develop iOS apps on iOS, it will just be a toy.
Linux (and other Unixes) have been doing live updates to the entire system since .. basically forever; Except for the kernel, there is very rarely a need to restart. And they let you restart the kernel on your own schedule. Windows Kernel developers chose a different set of file system semantics, and that is what makes it hard on Windows.

In fact, if you can't afford the restart even when you schedule it, there's ksplice and a variety of similar solutions that can switch to a new kernel without a restart.

I did have firefox behave weirdly once after an upgrade until I restarted it, around v15 or so -- but I believe even that is no longer an issue; at the very least, I haven't had any issue with upgrading firefox while using it, and restarting it a week later.
That's correct! You'll be able to execute your machine learning code in our cloud + plus you can share it with others for easy exploration.

For uploading data sets we're working on a resolver strategy that lets you specify endpoints from where the data can be downloaded before the lab is executed.

We'll provide containers with all common libraries. In the future you'll be able to configure your own containers which will allow you to run pretty much whatever you want.

I do so because my Clojure app I'm writing also depends on other programs from 3rd party vendors (open source stuff). I'm too old to spend time setting shit up on every develop machine, server etc. If I can just write one declarative file (docker-compose.yml) and then be done that's nice, so that is what I do.

Deploying on Linux anyways, so Docker isn't a performance overhead.

> Microsoft shares part of the blame here for pushing features that the user clearly doesn't want through updates (especially to the major OS version). Look at the recent ads in Windows file explorer for one example. A lot of the advice to turn Windows Update off is a misguided response to Microsoft's own bone-headed moves in recent years to install bullshit that the user doesn't want.

Vaccinations are awesome, but Microsoft's heavy-handed bundling is similar to how the CIA was using vaccinations as cover to collect DNA[1] samples in Pakistan. This inadvertently led to a distrust of vaccinations[2] which harmed the efforts to eradicate Polio (or biological WCry, if you will).

Additionally, Microsoft abused the update system to download an entire, multi-GB OS (Windows 10) on systems running on Windows 8, "just in case they will want to upgrade". This was very expensive for people on metered bandwidth. Microsoft should separate critical updates from the less critical ones and give users the ability to opt-in for critical updates only.

You say this as if an unexpectedly slow update cycle can be a retroactive justification of the product. If Apple weren't expecting users to update iPads so infrequently, then it will be an issue for them.

Also it can't be considered both "a computer" and considered to be in a maturing lifecycle phase if tablet sales are down while laptop sales are increasing. If you consider the iPad a computer, then Apple's product line is cannibalising itself, which would also be an issue.
I'm not certain Donald Trump's views or stated goals put him that far outside the general Republican mainstream or separated him from the other candidates. And arguably, other candidates have been more qualified and capable to actually pass the kind of legislation Trump supporters wanted.

Which is why, to me, Trump's persona seemed to matter more than his actual policy positions.

As a policy goal, "the wall" it makes little sense. From a "fiscally conservative and socially liberal" point of view, it makes no sense. But as a symbol of right-wing defiance, as a dramatic device, building a giant wall to keep out the foreigners and making them pay for it because America is just that strong makes perfect sense.

>But I don't think it takes an effort of hermeneutics to understand why people wanted to give him the job, when their stated reasons have been so clearly on display.

The stated reasons have been all over the place, though, and they include a general sense of disgust with political correctness and multiculturalism, and wanting someone to act as a "brick through the window of the establishment." I've seen so many things attributed to Trump's election at this point that I'm starting to wonder how many of his supporters actually voted for him rather than against something or someone else.

I may not be entirely correct, but I'm not certain I'm entirely wrong, either.

You're wrong too --- but only in my opinion. What free speech really "exists for" is hard to pin down[1].

It's actually an interesting legal perspective. These are unelected officials, appointed by an indirectly elected official (albeit confirmed by directly elected ones) interacting directly with the public. It's a bizarre reversal of the Jeffersonian republic, like a direct democracy nested deep inside a republic. The fact that the poster is totally wrong does not alone make the idea worth censoring.

If you don't listen to people who disagree with you, how can you hope to engage them in debate? Case in point: you got downvoted so many times you were [flagged] and [dead], and I vouched for you. 1) You didn't deserve it. 2) I wanted to bring you back so I could make the point that, under your idea of free speech, you'd still be [dead].

This is true, yet the cost is not calculated this way. It is not only the print cost. Large publishers have overhead cost that can exceed the publication cost itself such as the different departments, legal issues, marketing, renting for booths...etc. While the self-publish look promising it face lots of barriers. Most self-publishers can hardly sell their books as they focus on writing and neglect other factors such as marketing which make take equal effort and more cost comparing with the writing itself.

> Windows's auto updates though can be annoying, ensures that the average computer is up to date.

> The average user cares that their holiday photos, documents or credentials don't get stolen or ransomed.

Are both true. However, windows updates also occasionally cause restarts in the least opportune moments (e.g. when you have unsaved work and left for the day), or make a restart take 40 minutes when you need your computer right now (in the middle of an important phone call). Both of these have happened to virtually every Windows user I know, prompting some of them to disable Windows Updates.

Other issues with windows updates are bandwidth abuse (getting Win10 downloaded automatically on metered mobile connection), breaking some software/drivers/configuration, or installing unwelcome telemetry spyware. Each of these only happened to one or two persons I know.

The average user now keeps all their holiday photos on their mobile phone / cloud, but they do care about documents and credentials.

You are not wrong, but the way Microsoft Update behaves, you have to choose the lesser of evils (potentially get ransomwared, vs potentially avoid things listed above). It is not patently clear that Windows Update is universally the better option.

And it wouldn't be a choice between evils in the first place, if microsoft didn't try to advance their agenda by stopping the practice of "security updates" vs "other updates". Microsoft deserves all of the blame for the disdain to Windows Update, and therefore a big chunk of the sorry state of its users.
> Don't tell people to turn off Windows Update, just don't

Cybercrime on the high seas: the new threat facing billionaire superyacht owners
That sounds like a different market segment. If McDonalds wants to invest in removing their line cooks, they aren't going to wait until someone starts a startup providing that. They are going to hire an automation firm staffed with "robotics engineers". They, the engineers, then have to figure out how to make it work, be that through machine learning and computer vision, or some other method.

Although the fact that you point to founders here, and echoing that there is little viability in a career as a "robotics" engineer, emphasizes the earlier comments.

That's actually not entirely true. Updates to a shared lib require restarting all running programs that use that lib. Not a full reboot, but probably a service restart or you're not protected by the update.

I wish I could disable updates. Dumb ass win10 thinks it's ok to download 2 GIGABYTES of data. How is it reasonable to have gigabytes of updates ? For security ? I have gigabytes of binaries here ? And then 15 days later, 1.5GB of updates. (note: my win10 laptop is usually used with mobile internet)

Win10 is a shame.

They could have at least separated security updates from random crap updates. A button would be nice as well.

If anyone knows how to disable updates on non-professional win10, please let me know.

edit: I do know about security and the importance of updates. You few downvoting me can go shove it up your arse. It's crap behavior from win10, period.

The hotdog identifying app in Silicon Valley is real – and it's pure gold
That's how I see it. In the last quarter Apple sold twice as many iPads as Macs, so twice as many people thought an iPad does what they need to get done. It also has twice the installed base (300m) of the Mac. App sales are a multi-billion dollar industry that’s growing and key players like Microsoft, Adobe and IBM think the iPad is a strategic platform they have to be on.

The early sales growth of the iPad was unsustainable. If it had flattened at 11m a quarter the installed base would now be about 800m devices, more than half that of all laptops and desktop PCs combined. Is anything much less than that to be considered failure?

I believe what happened is that, leveraging the already mature iOS platform, the iPad was already close to being fully realised as a product in the first few years. Customers and developers recognized that value and bought into the platform heavily very quickly, but so quickly that it wasn’t sustainable. Since then platform improvements have been incremental, but it’s still selling extremely well. ASP, margins, customer satisfaction and App sales are all very healthy. This is a strong product that owns it’s market.

It's not possible for a random stranger on the internet to provide, as you call it, "moral advice". Moral advice never wins a case in court. Any advice, prefixed with a bullshit adjective like "moral", might be - yes, stupidly - interpreted as information that might have some amount of legal merit for someone who is in a legal predicament. The fact that "IANAL" (I Am Not A Lawyer) even exists as an acronym is a disservice to anyone who ever reads an "IANAL" comment trying to find some shred of hope that will assist them in a legal scenario. People wear blinders when in desperate situations, potentially taking advice from people who don't have a goddamn clue what they are talking about.

Now I don't give a damn how rude I am being: never give advice to someone regarding a legal matter other than "you should talk to your lawyer", unless you are offering your legal services - and surprise, legal discussions would never happen on a public forum. You could destroy a life if you offer ill-advised information, and the recipient believes you instead of seeking legal counsel. Unless you know every facet of their case, even if you're a lawyer, you cannot guarantee that your advice is not ill-advised for their situation.
