Oh, just the usual near-monthly (if not daily) death march of ever-increasing version numbers, just like Chrome and Firefox. And Windows Update. And OS X, And iOS. And Ubuntu. And so on, and so on, and so on...
- djsumdog 8y agoIn general I'm glad we have rapidly increasing version numbers for Chrome, Firefox and even Edge. If you had lived through the IE6 days, this would be something to appreciate. I'm how sure how I feel about it with the JRE. I have old open source apps on Scala 2.11/SBT 0.13 that are already experience dependency rot. :-/ It's going to be more difficult too since deprecated stuff is finally getting removed from Java. I'm curious to see where we'll be a few years from now.
