   @thomasfuchs are weekly updates the things that should have shipped at launch? If so let’s announce them as a new update. As long as the new update doesn’t override the previous update and doesn’t stop you from getting today’s latest and greatest VP approved update

     @thomasfuchs I switched away from one particular gem because of precisely this sort of update cycle. Multiple releases per week; something like sixty in a single year, including three backwards-incompatible major versions. For a pagination library.

     But also I think tools like Dependabot are part of the problem; it’s promoting the idea that installing updates ASAP is the correct and normal approach.

     @thomasfuchs At least if you're moving house you can use the coupon to buy new chairs!
     (only 25c can be redeemed from the coupon per purchase)
