This post is more or less a lament about that fact, not necessarily a complaint or gripe. Chris is a Sysadmin, and there’s a big difference in perspective between this and a developer of an app whose reason for being is THE APP. A Sysadmin needs to provide a bunch of services that are not the core revenue generator, and multiples of them, meaning that every internal app has this same kind of updating overhead. It becomes tiresome to have to keep all of them up to date all the time. We know that is a fact of life, but not all facts of life are fun and people like to blow off steam about that.
