    LI_S02E47_Tied_up_and_shackled

    Tied up, shackled and then some: In contrast what you may be thinking after this intro, in this episode Martin and Chris take a closer look at an obscure concept known not only in esoteric circles as the software supply chain (chain being the keyword here). Once only appreciated by the inner circle of a small group of level-eight magicians, this concepts has now entered mainstream and is considered instrumental not only in the area creating and maintaining large scale codebases possibly clocking up a few million lines of code. This especially becomes important when a codebase largely relies on FLOSS components commonly downloaded from the internet. Relying on these components may cause a security issue if not handled with caution as not only the recent xz-utils incident (where possibly a nation-state actor) managed to infiltrate a popular compression library virtually used everywhere. So if you're interested in the security of your builds and applications, this is another episode you don't want to miss.

    LI_S02E46_Brian_Proffitt

    In this episode Martin and Chris are joined by no other than Brian Proffitt. Brian Who? If you ask that question, you belong to the approximate 2% of our listenership who don't know this head of the Open Source Program Office (OSPO) of a tiny start-up called Redhat :-). Then this episode is especially for you. But apart from contributing to Redhat's OSPO Brian wears many other hats as well (hint: chaos and native americans feature on this list as well. Never mind DOGE and Nixon!). Wanna know which other ones? Then enjoy the show!

    LI_S02E45_Darknet_Diaries

    This episode features Jack Rhysider of Darknet Diaries fame. Being an off-topic show (more to come here, for example, how to fail miserably when putting a puppet administration in place - we have screwed things up for the first two terms, but maybe Mr. Trump does have a third term?), we go into the nitty-gritty of how to produce a really successful podcast with millions of downloads (this is where Jack does most of the talking as Martin and myself are taking notes :-), why marketing is so important and how to not do marketing. Plus bonus content on neurotransmitters and how brains work in general (yours included). So you don't want to miss this one instead of doing the dishes, mowing the lawn or getting a root canal treatment (insert your chore of choice here). And if you want to know how many Inlaws episodes Jack's been listening to over the years, don't fast-forward to ten minutes and thirty-five seconds of this show. :-) Links Darknet Diaries: https://darknetdiaries.com Malicious Life (R.I.P.): https://malicious.life Jack's blog: https://blog.lime.link Howard Stern show: https://www.howardstern.com Waymo (Alphabet, you owe us!): https://waymo.com Nemesis: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt18378942 The Art of Human Hacking: https://www.amazon.de/-/en/Social-Engineering-Art-Human-Hacking/dp/0470639539

    LI_S02E44_FLOSS_in_a_small_shop

    This show hosts Michael Jerger, a German entrepreneur who has successfully built a small empire of selling services around FLOSS components which his company has contributed to the community over the years. So if you always wanted to know how federated version control systems actually work, how to program Kubernetes using a functional programming language instead of using boring Helm charts and what the deal with China, trademarks (Linux Inlaws and perhaps other trademarks) is, you really, really don't want to miss this episode!

    LI_S02E43_Valkey

    In this episode Martin and Chris host Kyle Davis and Dmitry Polyakovsky, two members of the Valley technical steering committee. Apart from a trip down memory lane (Kyle used to be a partner in crime when Martin and Chris were still working at Redis), this episode features insights into this more-than-instantly-popular drop-in replacement for Redis, the road ahead and how the project will ultimately contribute to the world domination of the Linux Foundation (if that stage has yet to be reached :-) - stay tuned). Plus - yes, wait for it - more bonus content on Rust, our favourite pet in the programming language zoo. Very few dry eyes in the house guaranteed with this episode, so you don't want to miss this.

    LI_S02E42_LoCode_and_NoCode

    This show is witness to Martin and Chris dabbling in the area of programming. Since both of them come from a computer science background, you may be forgiven to assume that this comes natural to them. Quite the opposite in fact. The lazy chaps that they are, they don't want to learn this either (which is quite challenging given their old age anyway). In order to avoid any related effort they discovered low code and no code tools and decided to do a show on their findings. So here it is :-). Plus bonus content on why artificial intelligence in general and large language models are just wrong, wrong and wrong. Never mind evil. Well, most of the time anyway. And - given the episode number of this show - why 42 is still a force to be reckoned with.

    LI_S02E41_FalkorDB

    This episode introduces FalkorDB, a graph database and much more as it turns out. Some old partners in crime (Guy Korland and Roi Lipman) from Martin's and Chris' days at Redis have taken the RedisGraph codebase (an extension turning native Redis into a full-blown graph DB) to new heights. Confused? Don't be - just listen to the episode. All will be revealed - and more...

    LI_S02E40_FLOSS_in_education

    In this episode our two hosts tackle the difficult subject of FLOSS in education. Beyond the ubiquitous Microsoft training courses thinly disguised as computer science classes in just too many second and third level education institutions. Plus bonus content: Chris sheds some light on his shady past as an assistant lecturer in computer science. Never mind obscure British cars. If you're into shady things never mind computer science, this is the show you don't want to miss!
