<p>Our industry lost one of its great minds on New Year’s Day as Niklaus Wirth passed at the age of 89. My first real computer programming class in high school used Pascal, which he designed in 1970, and the majority of my college courses used Modula-2, which he also designed in 1975. Both of these languages advanced the field of programming with innovations like modules, one-pass compilation, and concurrent programming. The type safety, clarity, and compiler support made these languages very approachable and easy to learn, likely keeping me on the path of a career in our industry. One of his greatest contributions to our field, that seems eerily prescient now, is his article “A Plea for Lean Software” published in Computer magazine in 1995.</p> | |||
<p>The article laments the fact that we have been conditioned with significant advances in hardware, leading to software that is unnecessarily bloated. Humorously, the article begins by addressing how memory requirements jump “from several to many megabytes." I am writing this blog post in a browser window that is consuming 700MB while reviewing his article in Preview, clocking in at just shy of 1GB of memory consumption, almost proving his point 29 years later.</p> |

We’ve walked-and-talked in China, Spain, England, Japan, and Thailand. These experiences are some of the best weeks of our lives.</p> |

<p>We’ve been thinking a lot about teams lately. As more companies release formal policies around hybrid and remote work, leaders are telling us that remote work has made working together, or teaming, difficult and has frayed the culture of their organizations. Of course, many companies, including our own, PwC, have long embraced remote work, with great success. And if we listen carefully to the types of problems leaders and workers say they’re encountering with teaming, the reality is that most of these issues existed prior to the pandemic.</p> | |||

<p>Version numbers are hard to get right. Semantic Versioning <a href="https://semver.org/">(SemVer)</a> communicates backward compatibility via version numbers which often lead to a <a href="https://hynek.me/articles/semver-will-not-save-you/">false sense of security and broken promises</a>. Calendar Versioning <a href="https://calver.org/">(CalVer)</a> sits at the other extreme of communicating almost <a href="https://jacobtomlinson.dev/posts/2023/sometimes-i-regret-using-calver/">no useful information at all</a>.</p> | |||
<p>Going forward I plan to version the projects I work on in a way that communicates <em>how much effort I expect a user will need to spend to adopt the new version</em>. I’m going to refer to that scheme as <strong>Intended Effort Versioning (<span>EffVer</span> for short)</strong>.</p> | |||

<p>The biggest challenge for switching version scheme is the momentum of other schemes in the ecosystem. SemVer is well established, and CalVer is also very common. Because of that <span>EffVer</span> is intentionally identical in structure to SemVer. This means that any tooling or process assumptions built around SemVer will work for <span>EffVer</span>.</p> | |||
<p>Any SemVer project can switch to <span>EffVer</span> by just changing how they decide the version number of the next release. If you try <span>EffVer</span> out and would prefer to go back to traditional semantics then switching back is also just the same process change.</p> | |||
<p>Switching to CalVer is more of a one way street, and although some languages have a <a href="https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/specifications/version-specifiers/#version-epochs">process for switching back</a> it’s not guaranteed to be a smooth ride. So if you ever do switch to CalVer can I suggest you use <code>YY.MM.DD</code> instead of <code>YYYY.MM.DD</code>, that way you could switch back to <span>EffVer</span>/SemVer and keep your <em>major</em> version number below 100.</p> | |||

<p>Despite decades of advances in document rendering technology, most of the world's documents are stuck in the 1990s due to the limitations of PDF. Yet, modern document formats like HTML have yet to provide a competitive alternative to PDF. This post explores why this is the case, and proposes a way forward based on the EPUB format.</p> | |||
