In a surprising development today, Microsoft was accused of moving too fast and bre^H^H^H failing to document things. HN commenters expressed nostalgia for the MS patch days of yore.
"At least we had MSFT" was the sentiment before Win10. For many, they were one of the few remaining companies that weren't "moving too fast".
It was a great time, when people could actually use more of their time on computers for doing other things besides chasing the update/upgrade treadmill.
It still takes them a long time to make patches; there's plenty of time to write notes. Releasing on a different schedule does not make it harder to document. You're implying it's a tradeoff, and it's not. They just dropped the ball.
