    Just Chatting

    We get back into the swing of things with an informal chat mostly about the existential crises of no longer being frontend devs. We dive into topics like the current AI agent hype, how we don't know what articles to even read anymore (or if anyone reads articles anymore), and what to call ourselves now.

    The Aspirin Paradox

    In this episode we cover "Locked doors, headaches, and intellectual need" by Max Kreminski. This article outlines the concept of problem-solution ordering issues and how they are the reason no one understands monads. We soon realize these problem-solution ordering issues are everywhere, and figuring them out is the key to true teaching. Here's the article Joe mentioned that does a way better job of explaining monads than he did: Functors, Applicatives, and Monads in Pictures. We decided to cover this article based on a wonderful user comment by @cebamps (gently) calling us out for our flippant take on functional programmers. Thank you so much for writing in!

    Changing Our Minds On Software Development

    In this episode we cover "Software development topics I've changed my mind on after 10 years in the industry" by Chris Kiehl. This is a fun one where we riff on things we still believe to be true, things we've changed our mind on, and opinions we've picked up over the years.

    Building Complex Software

    In this episode we cover "How To Write Complex Software" by Grant Slatton. If you've ever struggled wondering how to approach a big problem, this one's for you. We go over a mental framework of "top to bottom" engineering, how to maximize parallel efforts, and more. This is a spiritual successor to our "Speedrunning Projects" episode where we covered a much looser approach. Try them both out and get back to us!
