Yes - our current approach is to wait ~2 weeks following a release, in case their are any significant bugs.
In the case of v. 0.19, it appears there have been some significant federation-related bugs, so the wait might be a little longer while we see how it all shakes out.
Read Asimov’s Robots series. !Stop at Asimov’s Robots series! I want Daneel damn it! We could use a Demerzel but not the rest of Foundation or the Galactic authoritarian nonsense.
I don’t stay in one place too long. When I first arrive in a place I can trick myself into hoping that community I’ve just moved to is progressive, kind and curious. I like living in places I can’t speak the language of, also.
Other travelers are the most communal and open-minded people I know and I feel comfortable around them because I know they’re actually listening when I talk and experiencing the moment, sedentary people tend to cultivate arbitrary or circumstantial opinions they misrepresent as considered values that they huddle behind and reinforce.

Well, I’m not going to assume that every decision made by the senior decision-makers in a company is rational for the firm or for ‘maximizing shareholder wealth’ in the long term.
CEOs and executives may act in their own, or their firm’s short term interests, they can however also get complex decisions entirely wrong. Not to mention tax law can incentivize some sub rational behaviour.
There are enough historical cases of absolutely bad thinking running companies into the ground, with deceptive practices that leave lenders and subcontractors short.
The stock market’s reaction to act against bad management can be tardy.
(I’m setting aside corporations taking responsibility for larger societal benefits here because US SEC norms for publicly traded corporations don’t provide for that the way they are in Canadian or European law. In the other hand, there may be some arguments that some of these actions are anticompetitive, and worthy of antitrust investigation.)
I just wanted to point out how amazing it is that the Sistine Chapel was painted 541 years ago and is still emulated in art such as this thumbnail. That’s crazy!
