> one that broke the test runner, and ignored a number of tests

That's unfortunate! For the project I'm working on, we've "solved" that by showing the number of test and the difference to the number of tests that ran on main.

FWIW, at previous jobs, upgrading Java dependencies was a major pain because they were all outdated and the latest versions introduced too many breaking changes for us. At my current job, we pretty much instantly merge all PRs from dependabot because we trust our CI. Upgrades rarely introduce problems and if they do, they are easy to fix.

> What I've noticed in practice however, is that occasionally, this process will allow an upgrade to a dependency that will pass the automated build and test step, but introduce the wildest runtime error into the application. Usually at the time when we aim to deliver something.

Sounds like dependabot is very useful for uncovering insufficient test coverage or missing integration tests :)

Ironically that might be China, at least it would be with Bitcoin.

So now it's also integrated into Google Search

I wonder how you deal with restarting changefeeds? The last time I checked you'd have go through every document again after losing the connection to rethinkdb or restarting the server.

Given that it's an European project I'd be surprised if it was a metric vs imperial unit mixup.

Never heard of this. Do you have a source?

The "chessnetwork" channel on YouTube is absolutely great. Interesting narrative and soothing voice.

Do you have any data on that? We found that using transit could actually increase overall throughput because it does some minimal compression/deduplication.

You can add some sort of safety by only allowing transactions that use functions stored in the transactor.
