Happens in AAA too but we tend to have teams that shield everyone from that before they get to work. I ran a team like that for a couple years.

For hobby stuff at home though I don't tend to hit those types of issues because my projects are pretty frozen dependency-wise. Do you really have OS updates break stuff for you often? I'm not sure I recall that happening on a home project in quite a while.
