My buddy and I hit Vegas for our yearly trip to play slots and eat Nacho Daddy’s. We even broke even on the slots. It was great. Hank loves Chat GPT but I’m convinced SkyNet is about to slaughter us all. We need some ethical bumpers on life. Aliens are huge in the news right now. Someone is watching. And now I’m paranoid about being swallowed by a …

Lars wants a less demanding way to prepare for giving talks, but he doesn't have the time right now. Andreas knows a cheat code for public speaking. Lars uses slides like a blunt instrument. How should you wield your slides? How do you weigh information content against entertainment value? Should you try to reach precisely everyone with your talk? …

What are people talking about when they talk about developer experience? Pretty colors in the terminal? What is worth improving, what is not? Lars has thoughts about all of developer experience, not least the one of Nerves. How flaky do you accept, for how fast? Revealed: why all Andreas' Elm programs are one line long. Also: Why not attend the Øre…

Andreas' place of work ceased to exist. It was mostly a relief. The main worry is about resting and recovering enough before whatever comes next begins. All the learnings about how not to do certain things live on. The right way of doing those things still remains to be learned. Lars is on the other end of the spectrum: beginning completely new thi…

CRUD - a classic term among supposedly simple web apps. But, not always the right move? Not always all that mappable to the actual problem? Discussed: picking spicy architectures, non-CRUD data storage needs, slovely solutions, dirty refunds, and doing the OAuth dance. Hey, thing happened! Finally: a story where pubsub was reasonable, and some tele…

Embedded is a weird thing. Lars is all Nerves and tries to explain and report from a world where people know part numbers off the top of their heads. The physical device missing is rarely a thing that happens in web development. Embedded-style work can sneak into other areas as well. Without a root file system, everything is a lot more secure. Secu…

Andreas is a man of many hobbies. Interviewing for example. But sometimes, you get strange questions from strange people, end up feeling scared, or start lying just a bit. Then, perhaps, you tell the story of a bug. Perhaps we shouldn't work during the winter? Lars doesn't have interviews. More like sales calls. H§e shares his experiences of how to…

Stories about Ecto quickly redeeming itself, and of what it takes to introduce foreign keys. Some of us are super comfortable referencing the ID. Lars dislikes that Ecto needs to be more complicated because of SQL, but the abstractions do hold. Also: the biggest reason to ever use a ORM! It can be reallynice to come back to one after a tour of plai…

Fredrik wants to think about long-lived code. Lars is offended, Andreas only a little bit so. Are there other good software development practices out there? Other than the ones focusing on building something quickly? Practices for building software which lives on and is maintained for much longer than we seem to care to admit? Should we remove depe…

We’ve had a long lasting crud. We aren’t all the way dead. And we don’t want to turn into the old folks talking about their health concerns. But here we are. It’s only fair since vaccines could help so many kids. The measles are miserable. Does it make a difference if you speak out or explain your opinion on social media? Are we living in 1984? Don…

The Saint Valentine's peak passed without issue. Andreas had time for semlor. Lars has opinions on semlor, and can imagine many possible improvements. Like having an apple. Or a pizza. Lars has had a nice influx of work, including hardware work using Nerves. Testing and very hackish hot code reloading are both included. Finally, some thoughts on Li…

Andreas tells the story of a old system which suddenly exhibited a new and frightening bug. Lars shares similar experiences of things going wrong in new and novel ways. When things do go wrong, it is so nice to have supervision trees or other things which allow you to hear about problems, not to mention recover from them. Also covered are some stor…

Lars dove into data pipelines, and emerged bearing arrows and wishing for a lot fewer copies. What is there to think about regarding data pipelines, what is interesting about them? Which tools are out there, and why might you want to use them? Why all this talk about making fewer copies of data? What does Lars' current ideal pipeline look like, and…

It's that time of the year again! When we cozy up to the podcast mic, sip on some egg nog and discuss the things we watched in 2023. That, and maybe sip on some haterade while we're at it. This year, we're discussing: Best New (or new-ish) Movie Best New to Us Movie Worst New to Us Movie Biggest Surprise (New or Old) Plus, was 2023 a great year for…

GenServers are fun! Andreas gives all the context. Things were learned, knowledge was aquired. You can do so much with GenServers, but make sure you have a good reason. If you don't watch out, this is where concurrency goes to die. Dynamic supervisors, and their children, are thoroughly considered. Also delved into is the mess other ecosystems make…

We’re remodeling and one of our fur babies disappeared. We were distraught. She was traumatized. Etiquette is necessary for groups to get along. I went with a buddy to see Collective Soul. They were fantastic and I discovered a bad I missed. Footballer Michael Irvin has given rise to the next rap supper star, and he called him out.…

Every web app starts out fine, the tabula rasa of an unwritten BODY. But sooner or later you need users. And a million other things which live in trees. Also: email. And that layer between the controller and the database where things like fine-grained access control goes. I'd like to have an admin, please. Eventually, web apps grows up. And while a…

The software development industry is very much built for code nerds. It shouldn’t be. Many of us know many people who are really into coding. Not every working developer can, or even should, be though. Doesn't that create kind of a weird gap between professionals who live and breathe code both on and off work, and those who have a more balanced lif…

Data has moved to a real database. Next, there may be brave attempts to add actual structure. Working with a real database is nice, as is not losing data, and being able to restore. Not everything is ephemeral, after all. Database service providers and cool stuff they do are discussed. The deal with Elastic is clarified. Finally, it is revealed whe…

It seems a mingle is a thing, and not just in Swedish! But what do we want to get out of them, how do we go into them, and how do we create good ones? Do you want resonance or hole-poking when you tell people about your plan to arm toddlers with nuclear weapons? Do you want to successfully mingle nerds, or just hit the snacks hard?
