Why a basking shark instead of a whale shark though?

Ours is a fun god!

Having a regular schedule of updates helps get individual big fixes or features out faster. You may not notice a difference because you may not experience the bugs that are being fixed. There may be slight changes to features that you don’t use enough to notice. There could even be features that are disabled until they’re remotely enabled. Mobile apps often run A/B tests for changes to see how those changes affect user behavior, so you might be in the “no change” test cohort when you don’t see changes, those changes may never activate on your installation if the test doesn’t pan out.

I recently convinced my team to adopt this practice so I’ve been brushing up on it. When done right it can mean a more stable app and quicker response to issues since it relies heavily on monitoring app performance, bug reports, and user reviews. Communication to users is hard since you don’t want to have every update be “fixed bugs” but it’s also unnecessary to say “fixed an issue where a batch upload job didn’t handle individual errors by retrying” for each change that may not actually impact you as a user but which impacts the business that builds the app.

Nurse sharks are friendly? The things I remember about them from my childhood book on sharks are: they sleep in big piles on the ocean floor, their eggs are like weird sacks, and they latch on after biting and will not let go

I’ve seen people staple their arms because they couldn’t think of anything better to do. You can have an impulse that you don’t actually want to do but which you follow through on

Like the real Jesus would run as a Democrat. At least with the Devil you know where you stand! /s

Claims made without evidence can be dismissed without evidence

“yes” is selected, it looks pressed in

I have no clue but I’m pretty sure it’s because it’s a Pixel phone. All my pictures look weird zoomed in like that instead of regular square pixels

And I never noticed…

I love the part where there’s a virus that some wasps carry and inject with the eggs that suppresses the host’s immune response
