Deep thought of the day.

The quick release cycles and frequent updates of modern software come across as the software being mostly interested in itself, and not in the user.

Dear user, you want to do X? Hold on for a few minutes while I, King Software, do Y! My desires trump yours! And the convenience of my developers trumps yours as well.

It's maybe equivalent to the 'DX' that the big frameworks create. Here, too, devs are mostly interested in themselves, and not in the user.
