If they really NEED to be representative of everyone then why aren't they all just skulls?
I was having the right-click lookup problem of there being a popup window, but nothing in it. It looks like that's been fixed, and now I see why it might have been broken. It looks a bit different.
The first thing I noticed was how the lag on the notification center is finally gone! At least on my Retina Macbook with an upscale at 1680x1050. Used to lag so hard before.
Other animations as well has really improved, waited for this since the GM Candidates.

Yeah, it does look a lot better. Looks like the other animations are smoother too.
Has anyone else had an issue with Flash player update with 4th beta? It won't download beyond 30% for me.
Or -- and here's a crazy idea -- they could simply allow multiple skintones, instead of just white.
I must be some kind of genius.
Faces are syncing just fine for me. Note that I am using the beta of iCloud Photo Library on both my iPad and iPhone and I'm (obviously) using the new Photos.app in 10.10.3 beta.
----------
The initial sync took a few days for all my devices (laptop, iMac, iPhone and iPad) to "get in sync". But once they did (just a test library, 1700 or so photos and a couple dozen albums, some faces, etc.) numbers of photos, movies and albums matched perfectly across all four devices.
It's impossible to do "limited" testing and then judge how well the syncing works. It takes time.
Preview still extremely problematic.
Progress, I suppose. Went from an F to a D- to a D+.
They have done something where Preview's CPU usage rails, they catch this now and there's some sort of reset.
Still unacceptable, especially in light that everything worked just fine pre-Yosemite.
Does Preview work for you? Great. Happy for you. You don't need to mention it here. Clearly it doesn't work for others; there's no need for you to chime in.

Worldwide, the average life expectancy at birth was 71.0 years (68.5 years for males and 73.5 years for females) over the period 20102013 according to United Nations World Population Prospects 2012 Revision, or 70.7 years (68.2 years for males and 73.2 years for females) for 2009 according to The World Factbook.
OS X 10.10.3 beta was downloaded and installed in about 15 minutes. Has anyone noted any significant differences?
Are you able to get faces data to sync between two computers? Or just the iOS devices?
The AVERAGE in the entire world is 71.
Swaziland is the lowest at 49, Japan is highest at 83.
The installation time of these weekly updates is a huge deterrent for me. But seeing as the last one pretty much killed Safari I'm hoping this one fixes it again.
I'm sure it works fine for a test library of 1700 photos. But photo libraries tend to be much larger these days, and mine is about 35GB.
I used it for about a week. The numbers were never in sync between iCloud, my Mac, and iOS. It also gave incorrect numbers at every step of the process, including the number of photos remaining to be uploaded. I would never trust it at this point.
Yes, but I think it's an Adobe issue. You also seem to get that problem on windows.

Preview still has got some major flaws. If I write into a pdf and save it 40% of the time I reopen that saved document, the text appears 90 degrees rotated.
Me and my friend now always make bets if it is rotated or isn't.
The 'Shared' tab in Photos appears to have stopped working for me, since updating to this 5th beta. Instead of actually showing me my shared albums, it shows me the 'Start Sharing' splash screen which, I presume, is what new users see. All the preferences seem fine, although there a constant 'Updating...' message in the settings window. Hoping this isn't a glitch caused by the update itself!
It keeps switching between this and 'Connecting to Library'.
----------
Well you just made me feel very young. Thanks!

The last beta may have been pushed out a little before it should have been due to the new Look Up feature being unfinished. In this build it now appears to be working, and I quite like the new features that it has.
Preview works great for me. I'm super happy that you're happy for me.

Follow frasier spiers on Twitter - he's been documenting this process with a photo library containing 35,000 photos and over 300 GB.
If I recall, it took 16 days, but at the end all his devices had the same exact number of photos and albums
Again, you simply can't do quick and dirty testing of this feature.
