Exactly. The recent Windows 10 update fiascos demonstrate this perfectly: they are opt-in (Insider program) and there were too few users experiencing the bugs to overcome the noise of those who weren't. You need a truly random sample.
- benatkin 8y agoI think they updated too many parts of Windows at once, not too many computers at once. And I'm not certain that a delayed rollout would have fixed it. Is it fair that a random sampling of people are given the problem?
- hutzlibu 8y agoSo instead of having enough voluntary or paid testers to detect catastrophic, file deleting bugs in a new version, your solution is to just roll out the new changes to random users expecting a stable system? Something went terrible wrong somewhere, that we got to this.
