The image proposes a "Pride versioning" system for software, contrasting with the standard semantic versioning.  Proud version: The major version number (e.g., 2 in 2.7.123) is incremented for releases the team is proud of. Default version: The minor version number (e.g., 7 in 2.7.123) is for normal or okay releases. Shame version: The patch version number (e.g., 123 in 2.7.123) is bumped when fixing embarrassing issues.
