(Luckily, I only have to do it for Xcode and OS X.)&lt;p&gt;It asks for my password literally every 15-20 seconds. Once I tell it to upgrade everything, it selects only one upgrade, and keeps telling me there are upgrades. While the upgrades are going, it keeps asking me for my password.&lt;p&gt;At that point I go off and watch TV. When I come back, it&amp;#x27;s actually downloaded all of the upgrades, and there&amp;#x27;s a message about how there are more. After I&amp;#x27;ve entered my password a few more times, it tells me I&amp;#x27;m up to date.&lt;p&gt;Then it asks me whether I&amp;#x27;d like to upgrade.&lt;p&gt;I guess once their work experience students get bored working on Xcode they put them on this instead.</text><parent_chain><item><author>relaxatorium</author><text>The thing that&amp;#x27;s craziest about the MAS to me is how bad the actual application is.&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#x27;s super slow, constantly hangs, and is just such a bad experience from the consumer side that it undermines the (very real) benefits of having a centralized store of applications you&amp;#x27;ve purchased and installed.&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#x27;d be one thing (and a fairly standard Apple move) if the customer experience was good and they didn&amp;#x27;t care about trampling developers to get it that way, but the actual customer facing software that is the App Store is a shockingly bad piece of software.</text></item></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Leaving the Mac App Store</title><url>http://blog.sketchapp.com/post/134322691555/leaving-the-mac-app-store</url></story>

Sometimes that&amp;#x27;s true, and other times it&amp;#x27;s because the Mac decided to display progress in the least obvious places.&lt;p&gt;Ironically the &lt;i&gt;one thing&lt;/i&gt; that doesn&amp;#x27;t update cleanly through the App Store is the OS itself, even though I suspect that was Apple&amp;#x27;s main reason for creating all this.  When El Capitán came out, at first I thought it wasn&amp;#x27;t even available because it wasn&amp;#x27;t structured as an &amp;quot;update&amp;quot; to anything (in direct contrast to the way &lt;i&gt;every other upgrade works&lt;/i&gt;, including the minor 10.x.x updates!).</text><parent_chain><item><author>relaxatorium</author><text>The thing that&amp;#x27;s craziest about the MAS to me is how bad the actual application is.&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#x27;s super slow, constantly hangs, and is just such a bad experience from the consumer side that it undermines the (very real) benefits of having a centralized store of applications you&amp;#x27;ve purchased and installed.&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#x27;d be one thing (and a fairly standard Apple move) if the customer experience was good and they didn&amp;#x27;t care about trampling developers to get it that way, but the actual customer facing software that is the App Store is a shockingly bad piece of software.</text></item></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Leaving the Mac App Store</title><url>http://blog.sketchapp.com/post/134322691555/leaving-the-mac-app-store</url></story>
