    Ep 11: Exploring AI for application developers (with Sinan Ozdemir)

    Link to GitHub for Sinan's book https://github.com/sinanuozdemir/quick-start-guide-to-llms Sinan on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sinan-ozdemir/ In this episode, I engage in a compelling conversation with Sinan Ozdemir, a seasoned expert in AI and LLMs who shares over a decade of experience. We navigate the fascinating progression of large language models (LLMs), discussing their deterministic and non-deterministic characteristics, the art of prompting, and the significance of model architecture and training data. Our discussion also covers the latest strides in AI, including the creation of smaller and more efficient models capable of running on everyday devices. We delve into the intriguing world of AI benchmarks, the surprising performance of specialized models compared to industry giants like GPT-4, and the innovative approaches required for continued advancement. Additionally, we highlight the ongoing tension between major corporations with extensive resources and smaller companies using open-source models to stay competitive. Join us to explore how the demand for personalized AI is influencing both research and corporate strategies.

    Testing architecture with ArchUnit (with Roland Weisleder)

    Roland's LinkedIn profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/roland-weisleder/ Devoxx talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ef0lUToWxI8 I happened to see a Devoxx talk a month ago, which was titled Unit Test, your Java Architecture by Roland Weisleder. And I found that to be super interesting because unit testing is something that I've always attributed to code, something more objective. And architecture has always been a little more subjective in my mind. Roland was kind enough to join me and share his experiences with ArchUnit and how it can help with architecture for Java codebases

    Event driven architectures (with Jonathan Schabowsky)

    Links:  Get a Solace Cloud account:   https://console.solace.cloud/login/new-account   Spring Cloud Stream code lab:  https://codelabs.solace.dev/codelabs/spring-cloud-stream-basics   Jonathan's LinkedIn profile:  https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonathan-schabowsky   Event driven microservices are gaining a lot of traction these days due to their ability to decouple different systems while at the same time, keep interactions realtime and dynamic. In this episode of the Artifact, I talk to Jonathan Schabowsky, field CTO at Solace.   Solace enables enterprises to build powerful real time event driven applications with products like event brokers, event portals and a cloud platform for events. Jonathan has a long and rich experience working with Event Driven architectures, so I was super excited and grateful when he agreed to talk with me. This interview was actually recorded way back in early 2022, but due to various personal reasons (entirely my own fault), I haven't been able to publish this, or really any other Artifact episode. But it's finally here, and if you are even a little bit interested in event driven services, you have to watch or listen to this. I ask Jonathan about the benefits of event driven architectures, the benefits, drawbacks, the mental model versus request response, and so much more! I hope you enjoy this episode and learn as much from it as I did.

    The job search process with Madeline Mann (Ep 7)

    Madeline's website: http://madelinemann.com Self Made Millenial YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/SelfMadeMillennial  In this episode of The Artifact, I talk to Madeline Mann, who is a career and job search coach. She is the creator of the Self Made Millenial. She has a coaching program and a Youtube channel with some amazing content with a lot of value.  In this interview, I talk to Madeline about job search as it applies to software developers. Are there any things we should be doing differently? What is the importance of soft skills when searching for a job that requires you to code all the time? Do cover letters matter? How about referrals? Connections? In this interview, we cover all these topics and more. I hope you get as much value and learning as I did from this episode of the Artifact.

    Microservices and patterns with Chris Richardson (Ep 6)

    Microservice patterns website: http://microservices.io Chris' consulting website: http://chrisrichardson.net  It's really simple. When you think microservice patterns, you think Chris Richardson. Chris is a very popular and authoritative voice in the microservice space - he runs the website: microservices.io which is a go-to resource for anyone trying to architect microservices and needs to learn common patterns. He's also the author of the book Microservice patterns. So, you can guess what i talk to him about in this interview.   At the end of the interview, Chris kindly agreed to speak with me another time to answer any of YOUR questions. So, wherever you are watching or listening to this episode, drop your questions on microservices and microservice patterns in the comments, and i'll pick the best ones to ask Chris in a follow up interview.    Okay, without any further ado, here's my interview with Chris richardson in this episode of the Artifact.

    On becoming a software architect with Lee Atchison (Ep 4)

    There's a point in every software engineers career, where they think "What's next?" Do they consider the role of an architect? Do they make a switch to a managerial role? Or deep dive into an individual contributor role?  In this episode, I talk to Lee Atchison, who's not only an author and a video course trainer, he has been in the architect role for 20 years!  I pick his brain on questions that I've heard many people ask: What is a good next step for an experienced software engineer? How do they choose between a managerial role and an architect role? And if someone wants to be an architect, what do they have to do?    All this and more in this episode of The Artifact.

    Learning cloud technologies with Ranga Karanam (Ep 2)

    Getting started in the software industry as a backend Java developer used to be about learning a programming language and a couple of frameworks to build applications. And you were all set. These days, it's no longer the case. With the rise of DevOps, and more importantly, the cloud, the learning journey that a new software developer has to go through has gotten more and more exansive. In this video, I talk to someone who has been teaching thousands of students for more than a decade. Ranga is the founder of in28minutes, You cannot be a backend Java developer using Udemy and not have seen at least one of his courses. He's a powerhouse course creator on Udemy and he's also a good friend. In this episode of the artifact, I talk to him about his journey into the software industry, teaching, and I ask some important questions on his current focus area of cloud technologies.  This is the Artifact. A podcast that aims to help software developers grow, get better and be happier.

    Introducing The Artifact (Ep 1)

    What is the Artifact? Setting aside the general meaning of the word artifact, in software world, an artifact is anything that's a byproduct produced during the development of software. A build or an executable is an artifact. A design document is an artifact. A packaged library is an artifact. All these are artifacts, but when you are developingf software for many years as many of us have, there's another important byproduct that's produced. That's experience. That's expertise. That's ideas and perspectives. Now based on the definition, those are artifacts too. And that's the kind of stuff that you don't learn in a coding bootcamp that churns out college grads with cookie cutter skills. It's mostly not taught in colleges. You either learn it from a good mentor if you are fortunate enough to have one. Or you do it the hard way - and learn from your own experience.  I want to try and fix that. The artifact is a podcast that brings to you perspectives and experiences from me and from the people who I talk to. Some are popular Youtubers that you might recognise. Some might be authors. Some might be neither of those and have a story to tell. I am going to learn from them, and I invite you to join me and learn with me. Also, a large part of being a software developer is keeoing yourself up to date with the news and updates to technology, and I plan to bring them to you and keep you updated as well. The Artifact is available at theartifact.io. That's the podcast homepage where you can find all podcast episodes that have been published so far. All episodes are also available on Apple podcasts, Google podcasts, Spotify, and most other podcast aggregation services.
