I just got increase in my day rate as iOS dev. I used "increase in price of equipment" as one of the reasons

Don't forget to mention the fact that Apple claims (in court) that users can't expect this to last more than a year? Plus, they are claiming that it is not a design flaw nor a manufacturing flaw.
So, you could shell out for Apple's planned obsolescence OR get an Android phone at half the price that does pretty much the same things but will last for years. It's a no-brainer.

So I just noticed Windows 10, and I just tried searching around for a solution or setting toggle, doesn't display a notification when updates are downloading?!
Am I missing anything here? I hate this because just when I am about to turn off the computer, I check the windows update and its in the middle of a download. I can see end users doing this (just turning off their computer without checking windows update) often and never completing downloads and it never getting updated. Most of the headaches I have encountered with Windows 10 is mostly with updates.

pretty sure it will just continue where it left off when the computer is powered-on.

You are probably correct but I haven't verified this. It would still be nice if it told me to leave on the computer until the updates are finished, if possible. Next time I turn it on, I could get compromised because I didn't know to finish the update

What I've seen is the windows icon, when right clicked and choosing "Shutdown or sign out" is that one of the choices mentions "updates" and shutting down. Maybe that's not showing for you? or it got broken in a recent update?
Good luck!

So I left the new dell machine on while I left the office yesterday and it was downloading updates. I come in this morning and it is asleep (I didn't touch any sleep settings yet, so these are preconfigured settings). I turn it back on to see if you are correct and it only has Sign Out, Sleep, Shut down, Restart while Windows update screen says "Installing 93%".
So it still shows no notices about Windows Update in progress while clicking on the menu to shut down.

You actually turn off Microsoft's computer? Since when do you feel you're allowed to do that?

I so appreciate sarcasm.
At least its not like some Ubuntu machines I have here just going straight into read-only mode and not allowing any account to sign in.

This update results in the debugger randomly crashing, at least when debugging Docker containers.
I've seen other reports of debugger issues, but they keep getting closed because the user doesn't send a dump. I tried, but I couldn't reproduce the issue for the recorder, but it does keep happening.
I'll follow up if a workaround or later update fixes the issue.

We were defeated by the weather after about 148 miles in the Pennines.
Finished the last section with a rented van.
Observations:-
1) The national cycle route (Map here)[^] is amazing.
2) England especially is completely full (traffic) - even tiny roads are really too busy to cycle.
3) Much of Wales is beautiful

Glad you enjoyed it - but don't tell everybody or we'll be as full of traffic as England...

I have driven Holyhead to Manchester many times and thought there was nothing of note in between.
Cycling gives it a different perspective.
(It is, however, already overrun with Englishers)

I agree, Wales is beautiful, I once walked the Pembrokeshire coastal path.
Also I still remember the apple pie with custard in Fishguard

1. Yes
2. And far too many of them believe they have the right to run you off the road.
3. Very little is not.
Glad you (almost) made it, I know bad weather in the Pennines can be awful.

It's just "I don't understand" in a selection of languages.
