In this episode I'm joined by Elizabeth Joseph from IBM, and we discuss COBOL.
I know what you're thinking. Why are we resurrecting a dinosaur of a programming technology for this podcast episode? While the programming language is one of the oldest, it is still very relevant when it comes to modern development, more particularly mainframe development.
While the focus point of this episode is around COBOL, Elizabeth and I spend a lot more time discussing mainframe development and where it fits in a world where JavaScript, Python, and similar technologies are dominating.

In this episode I'm joined by Lennart Frantzell from IBM, and we're talking about the blockchain.
If you've ever been curious on what the blockchain is, why you should develop on it, or how to even develop on it, this is the episode for you. We clear the air on a lot of misconceptions that people have and show that it is more than just cryptocurrency and hype.

This episode is a continuation of the previous episode featuring Marek Sadowski from IBM.
In the previous episode, Marek and I discussed the history and use-cases behind virtual machines, containers, and bare metal deployments. We briefly discussed orchestration, but ran out of time when it came to getting into the exciting topics.
As part of the continuation, we jump into Kubernetes (K8s), a popular container orchestration tool, and how it differs from popular orchestration services like Red Had OpenShift. If you're looking to scale your organization, this is an episode worth listening to.

In this episode I'm joined by Marek Sadowski from IBM, and we're bringing DevOps into focus. More particularly, we're focusing on virtual machines, containers, and orchestrating them with tools like Kubernetes and RedHat OpenShift.
If you've ever had to deploy an application, you've probably asked yourself, what do I choose for deployment? Do I build my own hardware, use a virtual machine, or do I look into containers? What happens when your one application turns into one hundred applications? How do you manage those applications without bringing yourself to madness? Do you choose something like Kubernetes, or do you explore a managed solution like OpenShift?
This is a two part episode with this particular episode focusing on containers, virtual machines, and Kubernetes. The next episode in the series takes a spin at comparing Kubernetes to solutions like OpenShift for orchestration.

In this episode I'm joined by Corbin Crutchley, a friend and regular on the show, and we set out to talk about TypeScript and how it is used in modern development.
If you've never been exposed to TypeScript, it is a strongly typed language that acts as a superset to JavaScript, but compiles to JavaScript in the end. It is a go-to technology for a lot of developers and is becoming increasingly popular every day. Corbin and I take some time to explain all of the benefits and a few of the negatives about this awesome technology in this episode of the show.

In this episode I'm joined by Adrienne Tacke, author of Coding for Kids: Python, and Alex Ziskind, owner of the NativeScripting course platform.
The topic of this episode is broken into two parts.
The first is around improving your skills as a developer through different education avenues such as eBooks, video courses, conferences, and other events. The three of us on the show are developers, like many of the listeners. We each have our own methods towards learning new development technologies or deepening our skills with the technologies we're already using. Some of these methods might not be obvious and it's something we want to share.
The second part of the episode is around taking the developer skills that you have and then using them to teach others through writing your own eBooks or courses, and what it looks like in terms of hardware, funding, and similar.

In this episode I'm joined by Vijay Menon, organizer of the JavaScriptLA and JavaScript South Bay Meetup groups in Southern California.
The topic of this episode is around the importance of being a part of a developer community and building your own if one doesn't already exist in your local area. In this episode you'll hear success stories that Vijay has had at his very large and successful developer communities and the work that is involved for building and managing your own on Meetup.com.

In this episode I'm joined by Corbin Crutchley, a seasoned JavaScript developer with extensive knowledge of various frameworks such as Vue.js, Angular, and React.js. Corbin also operates his own development blog, Unicorn Utterances.
The topic of this episode is around asynchronous development using JavaScript and no particular framework. If you're coming from other programming languages, the concept of promises, callbacks, async / await, and similar all might seem daunting when it comes to working with remote web services or even resource intensive proccesses. Corbin and I shed some light into the world of doing things asynchronously and hopefully clear things up and even make the concepts easier to wrap your head around.

In this episode I'm joined by Ben Nelson, co-founder of Lambda School, an increasingly popular coding bootcamp with a slightly different structure and monetization strategy than the others.
Computer Science programs at a university are known to be tough, painful, and exhausting. This is because of the nature of the material, duration of the program, and the fact that you're probably going to be challenged with difficult classes outside the direct scope of software development. This is where coding schools such as Lambda School come into play because these are programs that are designed to teach you relevant workforce skills in short amounts of time.
Ben Nelson experienced a traditional university, switched to a popular coding bootcamp, and then started his own coding bootcamp because of the experience it was giving students. I personally only ever completed a Computer Science program at a university, so this episode shares perspectives and information from both points of view.

In this episode I'm joined by Bjørn Erik Pedersen, the core maintainer of Hugo, a popular static site generator built with the Go programming language.
Content management systems can be clunky because of all the layers involved in the stack. These systems usually have a database and backend technology in place before the content is ever sent to the browser for rendering. Not to mention, the more layers you are working with, the higher chance you'll be attacked through a bug or exploit.
This is where static site generation comes into play. Instead of working with a database and backend technology, all content is exported to HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. The content can be written in numerous formats, one of which is Markdown. Static site generation is made possible through themes and templates, all of which you'll learn about in this episode with Bjørn Erik.

In this episode I'm joined by Ben Mears who works for SideFX, a visual effects company for the gaming and film industry. The focus of this particular episode is around Houdini, a popular tool used within both industries. However, we're going to put a gaming spin on the episode.
Creating visual effects for games can be complicated and time consuming, but they don't have to be. With Houdini, you can use procedural, node-based workflows, for generating game assets and terrains. Ben Mears and I explore what exactly this means in this first ever gaming episode of the podcast featuring Houdini.

In this episode I'm joined by Luke Walker who is a Solutions Architect at Yubico, the company that creates security hardware tokens such as the YubiKey.
Security is a big deal in for both end users who are supplying data and developers who are working to keep that data safe. Luke and I spend some time in this episode discussing some of the various two-factor authentication (2FA) mechenisms that can be implemented in web applications and where some of these mechenisms fall short. In addition to things like TOTP, SMS, we also dive deep into the FIDO and FIDO2 protocol which Yubico implements and is pushing as a web standard.

In this episode I'm joined by first time guest, Rob Lauer, and repeat guest TJ VanToll, to talk about securing mobile applications from multiple perspectives.
Both Rob and TJ work for Progress, the core contributors of the mobile development framework, NativeScript, but NativeScript is by no means the focus of the episode. The focus is around security, and that can mean numerous things ranging from code security, the security of any data on the device at rest, and the security of data being sent to remote web services. In this episode we break down each of these categories and give potential ideas to get beyond them.

In this episode I'm joined by Nolan Erck who is a freelance developer consultant and is the owner of South of Shasta Consulting, located in Sacramento, California.
The focus of this episode is to dive deep into freelance development and some of the things to consider versus working as a full-time employee for a typical organization. This is valuable to anyone looking to transition from their current developer career or to anyone who is just now entering the work force and is looking for options because Nolan answers all the questions based on his first-hand experience.

In this episode I'm joined by Matt Groves, Senior Developer Advocate at the NoSQL database company, Couchbase.
The focus of this episode is to become familiar with NoSQL and where it makes sense to use it in your projects, both new and old. Matt and explore numerous NoSQL database technologies which include Graph, Document, Key-Value, and Columnar, and look at the possible advantages they bring over the RDBMS alternative.
I know Matt Groves from my time working with him at Couchbase. While Couchbase will be included in the episode, it is by no means the focus of the episode.

In this episode I'm joined by Lee Byron, former Facebook employee, who is one of the co-creators of GraphQL.
Coming from RESTful API development, I've run into many pain-points that GraphQL works to alleviate, and is one of the reasons why I've become such an advocate for it for modern development. Lee and I spend a lot of time discussing the fundamentals of GraphQL and how to get started with it in development. Not only are we focusing on the how, but we are also focusing on the why, which is very important when evaluating a new technology and methodology.

In this episode I'm joined by Jim Clark who works as the Chief Architect at Atomist.
Jim and I spend a lot of time discussing how the pipeline model to software delivery can be improved by making it a workflow and event driven model instead with a service like Atomist. The pipeline approach can only get you so far and it is limited in how the appropriate teams can get the necessary notifications to function efficiently. Jim and I explore how to get beyond these common problems.
