Announcing Windows 10 Insider Preview Fast+Skip Build 17046 for PC Insider

I am Master of Philosophy in Off Topic and PhD in Internal Usage of Malt Based Liquids, I'll test Insider builds when they provide some which work on my machine.

Microsoft already has enough telemetry on that and they have not improved anything, I already said it two weeks ago:


Recently someone on Twitter commented something about this:

This was the response of Brandon LeBlanc:

As if there were not enough comments about that in the Feedback hub... as I said before, they think that this system works perfect since in the PCs that they have everything works very well so I don't think that they are going to make any change or "improvement".

Wasn't it complaining about this on twitter that Dona blocked Kari for? Oh and I've given up complaining about it on the Hub.

No, that's not it.

She blocked me because I criticized Insider Program which is not tolerated at all, last "breach" being then when someone else completely misread one of my tweets changing the point in it and used it in this changed meaning to stress his own agenda.

Dona blocked me, I blocked the idiot who misused my tweet.

Insider program is what it is, comes "as is"; if you want to test preview builds is up to you, in doing so you accept the terms and conditions.

Ah OK. but you have had very long upgrade time issues with UUP?

Yes, and I have also told it repeatedly through Feedback Hub and Twitter like today:

Oh? I have a PHD in real-life situations. Like with $multi-k building contracts. When something went wrong or wasn't working out properly, I wanted to know why so I could correct the situation in order to make profit instead of losing my arse. I should think it would be the same with testing software. Sure, I wouldn't be able to correct the code for I'm not a coder, nor do I know the source code, but at least I could get some insight about it. I'm not expecting a reason for every nitpicky bug that comes along, but a major one like the AMD block I surely do think we deserve at least some kind of reason for it. After all, isn't that why they called it the "Insider" program and not the "Outsider"? BTW, UUPtoISO and the UUP Dump methods are great in case we have to clean install after an update failure, but I should think MS would rather have us attempt the upgrade via WU first so they get the telemetry needed to correct or improve that method.

You almost certainly will not any reason for the AMD bug. This involves really big bucks on the corporate side. The only analog I have in my testing experience is when I could not activate my copy of Office 2003 online and escalated the problem from India to a pretty high level at Redmond. I worked very well with the guy there and we did a lot of cool stuff but at a certaini point he was almost ready to have me go into the registry to activate the software and then thought better of it and instead sent me a copy of Office 2003 in a plain white mailer that would always activate. Maybe I can find it and install it in the Windows XP VM I made for her (she has software that will only run on XP).

It may not be a "big deal" but on the other hand I'm also looking for new stuff to test and MS's is not providing any explanation about cause of problems like that. Being an insider also implies having inquisitive mind and thinking. Any testing like insider versions should be done in scientific way.

Ummm, Count, I'm not too sure what we're doing is very scientific. Has there been a scientific study of bugs (the technology type)?
