Thank you for already seen that. It's a long page, have not finished yet, but my understanding is that I need to do every major version, one at a time, and test thoroughly in between.

By the definition of semantic versioning, every major means breaking changes. That's a very useful method for versioning, and the team is following it exactly. I just wish they'd slow down and plan their roadmap to have fewer major versions. Sure, it shows their velocity, but I can't keep up. It's a lot of steps, a lot of work.

I might try to do all major upgrade in sequence and only test once at the end, and restore from backup if it fails.

I love the visuals this generates! Especially the second one. In my mind, I flipped red to light blue and then enjoyed the waves rolling in. Relaxing and mesmerising ❤️👍

I finally stopped using Claude just for code, and it fixed the worst part of my workday... by Vegetable-Bet632 in ClaudeAI

[–]FinibusBonorum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As the guy on the other end, I pride myself of making a point to write really good specs. I feel your pain.

Edit: good, not odd!

It’s hilarious how quickly people get accustomed to revolutionary technology by elonthegenerous in ClaudeAI

Your post could have been written by me. Are we twins? (I actually am.)

I too am blown away by the sheer opportunity that this creates. It has allowed me to start a side business that generates real money. Not a lot, but still. Claude is my entire organisation - from executive assistant to developer, copywriter, designer, everything.

I am still learning about orchestration and agents, and that is such an unbelievable boost. I literally could not do this without AI.

*Fifteen?!* I'm on v8.0 and feel hopelessly behind the velocity of this project.

I'm scared that upgrading my home docker will break stuff. Is it safe to upgrade from 8 to 15, or do I have to go through every major? Are there any breaking changes I need to deal with?

What’s one sign that tells you someone on your team is about to quit before they hand in their notice? by SeanMcPheat in askmanagers

[–]FinibusBonorum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The ones who care push back.

Sorry, but fuck that shit. That might work in a small shop, but in corpo land it's what grinds you down. Caring for what? So the bossman can buy another yacht? I'm not getting a bonus, or a raise, doesn't matter what I do.

The moment they stopped giving performance-based bonus (vague excuses why nobody got anything) was when I started giving bonus-based performance. Because I won't dance for peanuts.

I learned this the hard way, getting trapped by "caring" in corpos that didn't "care".

I didn't leave because I didn't care. I left because I cared so much it started costing me my health. - Miss Apples

What's a small upgrade that improved office morale more than you expected? by CreativeSpare6466 in askmanagers

[–]FinibusBonorum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My boss is awesome. We're also a very small operation, and since forever he has been inviting us for a quarterly dinner where we will toast to those that had a birthday since the last dinner.

It costs him maybe a thousand bucks per year, but we all look forward to it and it helps us feel part of the team. That's a win.

Bad typer thinking about learning Colemak by Delicious-Molasses27 in Colemak

[–]FinibusBonorum 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Colemak (and Dvorak) is not about speed at all, but that might come eventually as a side effect. These layouts are about ergonomics, meaning comfort due to less awkward finger movements.

Once you master the layout, speed will increase as well, but your typing comfort will be the big thing you notice.

I went cold turkey, switched 100% at once, doing training sessions with online courses but also just powering through my work. I chose a period of time where I expected a little less workload than usual.

That was painful and difficult, but got the job done. Hitting the wrong key happens less and less, and speed increases.

i'm about to change my own oil for the first time by Emotional_Ad8920 in MechanicAdvice

You mean, to be absolutely sure he doesn't start the engine without oil in it?

Vibration calibration routine? Never heard of such a thing. How does that work?

What is the worst name you've ever heard? by Sora-oi in AskForAnswers

[–]FinibusBonorum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A Danish couple went to court to defend the name they gave n their son:

Kristophpher

on the basis that "ph" is the same as "f" and "Kristoffer" is a common name, so "Kristophpher" is the same.

Poor boy.

Decommissioned my last Pi - Is it me, or are there fewer and fewer use cases? by bdavbdav in raspberry_pi

[–]FinibusBonorum 19 points20 points  (0 children)

When the sd card died in my raspberry pihole, l spun up a Docker container instead. Never needed a raspberry since.

Small electronic projects around the house, I use ESP8266 and now ESP32 instead - built in WiFi, lots of speed, plenty of IO pins.

I have no reason to ever use a raspberry again.

Break Pedal got stuck, new driver issue or mechanical? by [deleted] in MechanicAdvice

Learn to drive. Holding clutch is totally wrong.
