The point is not about the firefighting methods, it's that the fire was allowed to started in the first place.

Why do people always rush to call for someone’s dismissal the instance something goes wrong?
Software is a process, not an end goal. There will always be bugs that need quashing, especially when iOS is constantly evolving and being iterated on. If a software engineer is sacked every time there is a bug, we won’t have anyone left to work before long.
Just step back, take a deep breath, and let Apple do their thing.
Ooh. That's interesting. I'm assuming you're on an X?
I can't say I don't see the reason why they added it. There's a haptic bump on NC and CC opening fully, and when engaging Peek Pop, so it kind of makes sense.
I wish there was a way to keep message haptics, but turn off system and peek pop haptics.
Well known. Was that way in the beta for several builds. Let's all hope that the phone app bug was patched or we will see true melt down.

When will cloud messages become available? They announce features more than six months in advance. Pretty soon they’ll announce features a year in advance.
To summarize:
Did the bug fix for the bugfix that was supposed to fix the supposedly stable dot release, fix the bug or does the bug need to get fixed by a new bug fix in the next supposedly stable dot release ?

Ussually you don't release in friday/Saturday because you may want all your hands or deck in case something happens, consumers may use the devices more on weekend and probably the update rate will be higher.if something goes wrong the impact will be higher and you don't have many resources on weekends. Companies (small and big) prefer avoiding weekends because of that scenario and minimize the risk. I guess there was something really wrong in the software.
What is this about? Improved video stabilization?? Does this mean EIS improvement?
Really? Just touching the bottom of the phone and I feel haptic feedback or a vibration that wasn’t there before. I hate it.
My iPhoneX is a BRICK after the update. I updated right after I saw the notification that there was an update last night and the update went fine and I selected one of the new wallpapers and then went to bed. Now 5 hours later my phone won't turn on at all. It was on a wireless charger all night. Was anyone else bricked after the 11.2 update?
Because this is not about one individual issue. It's about a trend. We have seen that the overall quality of iOS has been going down over the past 3 years. We have seen the introduction of Showstopper bugs making it into production with customers, that have never taken place before.
Let's just look at the past few weeks shall we:
1) Mac OS bug that allows for Root access to the system because a bug sets the Root Password to blank.
2) In the 11.2 beta releases for Beta 3 and Beta 4 and Beta 5 (at least, we did not have Beta 6 long enough to know- and it's production now) We saw a bug that could in it's worst form prevent your iPhone from being a phone. At the least it would break your voicemail.
3) The Date bug
That's a hell of a few weeks. If THAT'S where one finds their software development department- I think some fairly major changes are needed. Note that I did not call for the firing of a software developer. I called for the firing of management.

It _feels_ like there's a slight tweak (that's an improvement) to the gesture + timing (particularly the latter) to invoke the task view.
Do you get the metalic click when you swipe up to close the control Center from the bottom bar?
It is a strange haptic with a click in it. Feels broken.
It was probably intended for Monday or Tuesday but was released early to deal with the December 2 crashing issue with notifications.
iOS11 is bad and an urgent update won't change that. is not bad because this fix was missing. It has problems like performance, keyboard and airplay. Apple is not a young company, IOS is not a new software, however their ability to.develop software is declining more and more on every version.
