    Strategies for Successful Talent Retention

    #304: As we continue to navigate the complexities of modern work environments, the debate surrounding remote work versus in-office setups remains a hot topic. Companies are constantly reevaluating their strategies when it comes to talent retention, with the return to office being a significant point of discussion. On one hand, working in an office provides the opportunity for direct human interaction. This option can be particularly beneficial for those who are younger or new to the field, as they can directly learn and collaborate with their colleagues. Furthermore, for some individuals, an office environment provides the structure and engagement they need, preventing feelings of isolation that sometimes accompany remote work. In this episode, Darin and Viktor tackle what it take to retain top talent in 2025.   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

    How To Develop a CLI in 2025

    #303: In today's digital realm, command-line interfaces (CLI) are lifelines for developers, embodying the efficiency and power required to manage complex tasks. The goal in designing a CLI is not to overwhelm users with command intricacies but to allow them to navigate operations seamlessly and intuitively. In this episode, we speak with Wesley Beary, a founding engineer at Anchor, about their journey of developing a robust CLI for their product.   Wesley's contact information: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/geemus/   Developing CLIs: How Anchor developed a CLI and the tools that helped along the way https://anchor.dev/blog/developing-clis   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

    Using AI To Help With Your Programming Tasks

    #302: As individuals, engineers may feel that the day-to-day tasks and projects they undertake are not life-changing. After all, if an engineer has an off day, it doesn't mean they're suddenly out of the job market. However, when we look at the larger picture from a business standpoint, the stakes are significantly higher. Companies that choose to ignore or delay engaging with emerging technologies might find themselves in precarious positions. The necessity of stepping out of the comfort zones to experiment and innovate is more important now than ever before. The failure to at least explore new avenues could mean missing the opportunity to adapt when the market demands change. In this episode, Darin and Viktor discuss while changes, like AI, might not impact your business today, when they do take place, the effects can be sudden, leaving little time for a reactive strategy.   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

    Exploring OpenRewrite and the Future of Code Modernization

    #301: How many applications are in your organization that need to be kept up to date? More than likely, that number is every application needs to be kept up to date, if for no other reason than to keep your security teams happy. It gets even worse if you have 10s, 100s or even 1000s of applications. How do you make this manageable? In this episode, we sit down with Jonathan Schneider from Moderne to discuss OpenRewrite, a large-scale software refactoring solution. Jonathan explains how OpenRewrite assists in application modernization, security vulnerability repair, and code quality improvements.   Jonathan's contact information: X: https://x.com/jon_k_schneider LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonkschneider/   Code Remix Summit https://coderemix.ai/ Use the code MODERNE3VIP for an additional $300 off   Strategy Letter V https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2002/06/12/strategy-letter-v/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/
