Fragmented - AI Developer Podcast

Donn Felker, Kaushik Gopal

Fragmented is an AI developer podcast for engineers who want to go beyond vibe coding and ship real software. We cover AI-assisted development the way working engineers actually use it: prompting strategies, code review, testing, debugging, workflows, and building production-grade software with AI tools. No hype. No "I shipped a SaaS in a weekend" stories. Just tactics that work. Hosted by Kaushik Gopal and Iury Souza — software engineers using AI daily to build and ship real products. From vibe coding to software engineering — one episode at a time. Our goal: help you use AI to become a better engineer, not be replaced by one.

    255 - Data Oriented Programming

    In this episode, we dive into the programming paradigm — Data Oriented Programming (DOP) and why making data the star can simplify your code. Learn how well-modeled data reduces defensive logic, prevents invalid states, and keeps your apps stable. We’ll also contrast DOP with Object Oriented Programming (OOP) and Functional Programming (FP), sharing practical examples, tips, and resource links to deepen your understanding.
