I like achievements. I usually won’t hunt for them but the little extra gratification is nice. On Nintendo games I’m not really missing them…

But on games I like and I “finished” (killed the final boss / beat the last level / …), I most often can’t get myself to play them anymore since I have no goal anymore. And this is at that point that I sometime choose to chase achievement to 100% a game (extending its lifetime).

I could also look online for what’s hidden that I did not do… but the achievements are already tailored to my playthrough and may give hint “spoil free”. Online guides both spoil the puzzles and the reward…

And in the mean time I read that there are frequent and apparently non trivial breakage on version.

Not trying to point finger since it is not easy, but thinking about the upgrade strategy of a project (or language) and help consumers of your project (and their plugin) get to the next version would help them on this issue. We have examples of languages doing this (or not). There may be more challenges for an embedded languages (than for Rust or Python) but I’m sure some concepts can still be applied anyway.

Are there migration path for projects embedding a LUA version? Or is LUA incompatible between version?

Like if I build a plugin for a project in LUA 5.1, and the project want to migrate to 5.5, are there forward incompatibilities? Are there API deprecated for long enough to let people migrate?

As an observer I don’t understand why “once you choose a version for your project and a plugin ecosystem develop on it, you are married to this version”.

Its funny. “Oh the earth is about to explode? Only show it crack in the USA”. Makes me feel safe knowing how much it is fictionnal and in no way relatied to me.

Picture or artistic impression? If picture I want it as wallpaper!

I’m interested by these ways to deal with this issue. Do you have examples of thing I could do to improve the online team mood I’m a member of?

Right now I’m 2 days WFH, but could still be valuable since I’m looking for 100% WFH next.
