And my IT team pushed this release as a required update, immediately, as soon as it dropped. And now they’ve learned a lesson. Wait a week or two on major point releases.
From what I understand, 14.4 was also a HUGE security release for active exploits in the wild. It might have been better overall to deal with temporary broken usb functionality than risk a severe vulnerability remaining on their network.
You would think… but they new before that it was a bad idea. Someone above them said “I don’t care, just do it”. They also probably said something about metrics.

My company paused the rollout once all these bugs started appearing. They pushed it live before knowing how the GM was being received at scale.
Seperate security from major updates maybe?
What moron decided to bundle both of those updates together?
14.4 wasn’t that major of an update, it was mostly the security updates.
It also seems to have fixed a major memory leak bug for me, though I’ve only used it for a week or so now. Thank god.
Why did it break so many things then?
Because of the security update part of things.
From the article:
That’s why it is wiser to update when .01 .02 release launches.

Fucking metrics
