I'm amazed MS Paint is somehow up to version 11, let alone 11.2605 (!). I literally can't remember the last time I used it, but what are they even changing?

They've added a lot of features and it's almost like Photoshop Elements now. It has layers, general photo editing tools, an AI generator, etc.

It's the last two digits of the year plus the month number. That was June 2026. It was 2504 in May 2025, and 2402 in March 2024.

You can't have finished software any more. It's now illegal or something. Must keep changing things forever. And must add some AI features of course, to make the VCs happy.
