+    `ActiveJob::Exceptions.retry_on` now uses a random amount of jitter in order to
     prevent the [thundering herd effect](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thundering_herd_problem). Defaults to
     15% (represented as 0.15) but overridable via the `:jitter` option when using `retry_on`.
     Jitter is applied when an `Integer`, `ActiveSupport::Duration` or `:exponentially_longer`, is passed to the `wait` argument in `retry_on`.
