@alexz4nder Another eureka moment from our pioneer @alexz4nder

With a sufficient number of users of an API, it does not matter what you promise in the contract: all observable behaviors of your system will be depended on by somebody.#hyrum_law #API

Stickies are cheap, and the ideas are expensive, so take care to bring enough stickies to capture all ideas.

Semantic Versioning:
MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH

Major: the backward-incompatible changes have been made

Minor: new functionality has been added

Path: bug fixes have been made to existing functionality

Testing shows the presence, not the absence, of bug
