Nice to hear Stripe being proactive before what is essentially functionality breaking changes. Kudos to you guys for having a page with instructions on testing it ourselves on production servers with small snippets of pre-written code.
- patio11 8y agoThanks! We know that the infrastructure we build sits in really important parts of our customers' businesses and do our best to avoid both breaking changes and, especially, surprise breaking changes. (A related topic: we go to fairly substantial efforts to support outdated API versions while still letting us build new features. Amber Feng had a great presentation on it back in the day: https://www.heavybit.com/library/video/move-fast-dont-break-api/ https://www.heavybit.com/library/video/move-fast-dont-break-... ) If working on these sort of problems at scale sounds interesting or if you like the idea of working on a team which really sweats the downstream impact of engineering changes, we're hiring and always happy to chat.
