Umm, not to be argumentative, but your statement contradicts reality. This occurred on a less than 1 year old AMD Ryzen 7 based laptop, 64GB ram, RTX3080, gigabit ethernet, and a Samsung NVMe SSD.
No, Microsoft's bugs and design decisions are legendary. I noted how I fixed it above, but I think the update process has a race condition in it where the "let's go do the update" code misses the completion of the download. Conjecture on my part, but another post above explained how the process worked.
I can understand not having drivers with older hardware - but the update process should detect a mismatch and give a meaningful error. Unfortunately MS simply does not give a crap.

Apologies if this has already been brought up but I haven’t received a newsletter since Monday. Is anyone receiving the newsletter? It’s part of my morning routine.

The newsletter elves are busy with giftwrapping duties.

Thanks. I just took a quick look in the Site Bugs forum and didn’t see any other messages about it so I just posted a message there.

There's a newsletter ?
CI/CD = Continuous Impediment/Continuous Despair
|
|
|
|
|
The name of it is “Daily News” and it contains links to news articles (typically with a snarky comment about the article) and it’s normally delivered every weekday morning.

I tried sending you an email confirmation request to see if that helps. Please let me know if you receive it OK.
Thanks,

Sean,
I received it and confirmed my email. I’ll let you know when I receive the newsletter.
Thanks!

Just had a chance to check my spam folder and it looks like everything that I’m subscribed to from CodeProject was going there. Don’t know why Gmail decided to do that all of a sudden. Weird.

I've been receiving mine each morning.
|
|
|
|
|
Yes ... I had it each day this week, no problems at all ...

For some reason Gmail has suddenly decided that CodeProject emails are spam. This morning’s newsletter was, again, in the spam folder. Weird.

What if we put those silly advertisements at the bottom of programming sites, and they linked to tips on good programming practices?

You would still have to read it to them.

How many of you are into Advent-of-Code (or aware of it)? It is quite big in my office, and I assure you, not just among youngsters. The puzzles can be nifty, I wish I had the energy to take them on.
If this has been discussed here already, I am sorry.

Yes, I'm doing them.
It's just annoying that due to timezones it's not possible to compete on the leaderboard.
