    We have a right to repair!

    We have a right to repair!

    This week Adam went solo — talking to Kyle Wiens, Founder and CEO at iFixit, about all things Right to Repair. They discussed the latest win here in the US with Oregon passing an electronics Right to Repair law to allow owners the right to get their stuff fixed anywhere as well as limit the anti-repair practices of parts pairing. They also discussed the history of the DMCA, the challenges posed by Section 1201, the challenges of recycling products with glued-in batteries, the need for producer responsibility, the future of repairability, repair scoring systems to inform consumers, and so much more. Did you know that iFixit funds its advocacy work through the sale of its tools and parts? So cool.

    It's not always DNS

    It's not always DNS

    This week we’re talking about DNS with Paul Vixie — Paul is well known for his contributions to DNS and agrees with Adam on having a “love/hate relationship with DNS.” We discuss the limitations of current DNS technologies and the need for revisions to support future internet scale, the challenges in doing that. Paul shares insights on the future of the internet and how he’d reinvent DNS if given the opportunity. We even discuss the cultural idiom “It’s always DNS,” and the shift to using DNS resolvers like OpenDNS, Google’s 8.8.8.8 and Cloudflare’s 1.1.1.1. Buckle up, this is a good one.

Real tech news for developers

This podcast is a one stop shop for very relevant updates in the tech ecosystem. It lives up to it’s name by being a changelog on the industry itself. Great show!

Used to be fantastic!

Idk what happened to this show it used to be consistent episodes, they used to be relevant, on point, to tech stack deep dives, new technologies, etc. Now it’s a random schedule with the relevant stuff dwindled down into an 8 min news update and some boring interviews like once a month…

Update: Seems like this past month they’ve course corrected a bit toward what made this podcast great. Hope it continues!
