Are we back in 1998?

I'm always surprised when I meet a developer (or anyone really) that still shutdowns his/her computer each day. What about hibernate or sleep?

Funny thing about Windows, they promise since XP that "this time updates will no longer require a reboot". And they never deliver.

I'm surprised that developers use Windows as their daily driver to be honest. My gaming machine which runs Windows shuts off daily. My work laptop with Linux just sleeps.

If you choose to use Windows, you will have to reboot frequently.
