Braindump Versions, Release Notes, and the Road Ahead
I have been playing with a couple different methods of versioning and release notes with Braindump. I used to do all release notes in GitHub. GitHub “Releases” are nothing more than git tags with some additional meta-data and after talking to eric one day I agree that locking myself into GitHub specific tags is not the best idea. Then I started to add release notes on my blog and just link to it from the GitHub tag, this worked ok but you may have noticed that I blogged about version 0.3.0 yesterday and then released versions 0.3.1, 0.3.2, 0.3.3, and 0.3.4 today. I think I finally came up with a solution that makes the most sense to me.
Braindump is using semver, so the scheme is MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH. So going forward, I will create release notes only for MAJOR and MINOR versions.
With the new Docker deployments I am creating two types of containers.
latest
which refers to the latest commit on masterstable
which refers to the latest git tag
Braindump.pw will always be running the latest patch version, or stable
. I hope this new methodology will provide some better structure and clarity for this project.

[RODEN] Enrique Allen
Roden Readers — The first memory I have of Enrique Allen is from the campus of Stanford. He had just graduated from the d.school and was teaching part-time. We were about to start working together. He was all bounding lightness. That’s the first image: Jum…

# Back in May I wrote about being inspired to write a track based on a YouTube comment. I recorded a test not long after and built on that into June. Then the breakdown struck and I had a massive crisis of confidence alongside the depression and anxiety. I …

I'm sure there are truly pathological cases of ADHD out there, and maybe taking amphetamines really is a magic pill for some folks. But there clearly is also an entire cottage industry cropping up around convincing perfectly normal people that they …
