You should've just linked directly to the MSDN post. All ZDNyet did was to delete all the details and dumb down the language.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

“We are not building an operating system for just a single device, when I think about even Windows 10, the way we conceptualized it is, we are building an operating system for the user across all the devices” Service... without a smile

t is a service, that is how I think of it. Windows update is probably the biggest service we have because it touches 1.5 billion machines every day
So in other words, Windows 10 is a service whose purpose in life is to update 1.5 billion (I question that number) machines every day, with, erm, itself??? Gads, if I wrote a service that did that, I'd be fired. I certainly wouldn't brag about it.
I (or someone here!) better trademark OSAAS - OS As A Serice before Microsoft does! And its variants, like OS As a Software Service.

Or ODGPME OS as the greatest piece of malware in existence.
I don't object to windows 10 but the arrogance with which it is thrust upon the market annoys the hell out of me.

As an OS it should pass, but as a service it is the worst service I ever saw...

These black holes are just pulling our legs.
«There is a spectrum, from "clearly desirable behaviour," to "possibly dodgy behavior that still makes some sense," to "clearly undesirable behavior." We try to make the latter into warnings or, better, errors. But stuff that is in the middle category you don’t want to restrict unless there is a clear way to work around it.» Eric Lippert, May 14, 2008

Older people struggle to remember important details because their brains can't resist the irrelevant 'stuff' they soak up subconsciously. As a result, they tend to be less confident in their memories, say researchers. That's my excuse, and I'm sticking with it

I came here earlier and got about half way through reading the post and got a call, they reminded me of something I had to do outside and when I got that done since I was outside I started washing the car, and while washing the mail came and I went out and chatted with the mail lady and she mentioned how beautiful her garden was so I decided to go hoe mine. While hoing a customer came up and wanted some bait out of the store so I filled their order and talked to them about cameras and since I just got a new camera (Nikon D500, awesome machine) I thought it would be nice to take some pics of the garden. After that I started unwinding the stack and by the time I got back here and replied it's time for a power nap, I'm exhausted!
