On today's episode, Andrew Atkinson joins me once again for a recap of events at Sin City Ruby 2024. We also talk about Andrew's new Postgres consulting venture, his upcoming book High Performance PostgreSQL for Rails and what he learned in the process of writing the book, deciding how to communicate what you do as a consultant, naming things appropriately, how poor decision making in the early stages in the creation of an app can make it prohibitively expensive to fix later, how consulting jobs can naturally grow into new opportunities for work, being a generalist vs being a specialist, and Andrew's upcoming speaking engagements.
