it's probably because when they update those apps (or install new ones silently) it resets your privacy settings to allow that app full access

My MacBook Air has version 10.10.5 of the OS X operating system. Is it kind of like that?

Not quite, as build 10532 is almost certainly not something that will be made public. Some future version (let's say 10800 as an example) will incorporate the changes in 10532 as well as additional ones, and should be more stable than 10532. I think 10.10.5 is getting a public release with no major changes soon, Apple just trickles it out (I might be wrong about this).

It's basically the current published build, kinda like how debian does it

Preview fast is the unstable branch, newest versions but def buggy

Preview slow is testing branch, newer then the release but has been bug fixed a bit

Release is the stable branch, least amount of bugs but no new features.

And the ltsb branch is the backports: Solid under any circumstances, but lean on features.

...in theory.

I can only speak for myself, but I thought our dream job lay more in the realm of wrestling the US women's soccer team in a kiddie pool filled with baby oil. Beta testing Microsoft products barely cracks my top 3.
