    Don't use Markdown for technical documentation

    If you've written technical documentation, you'll know about Markdown. It's easy to get started with. It's easy to write. It's supported by just about any and every platform and service you're going to use, e.g., GitHub, GitLab, StackOverflow, Reddit, LinkedIn, and numerous other services. Despite that, it's not the best choice for technical documentation! However, there are two formats: AsciiDoc and reStructuredText, that are. What's more, these formats were designed with technical documentation in mind. In this episode, I step through my frustrations documenting software with Markdown, and give a healthy plug for why you should use AsciiDoc instead. It's loads better and far more enjoyable to document your code with.

    6 Git Log Options I Use That Make the Command-line Better Than a Git GUI

    You might think that Git GUIs are more efficient for using Git than the command line. I disagree. In this episode, I'm going to share with you six options that I regularly use with Git Log that make the command-line way faster.

    Getting Started With Git Reflog

    Git Reflog shows you a lot about what's going on in your Git repositories, and let's you clean them up better than other commands can. For this reason, and because I have been known to accidentally include things in commits that I need to purge, I'm coming to love this command. So, in this episode I'm going to give you a good introduction to the command, and step you through how I completely removed a commit from a repository I was working on recently, so that no one could ever recover an image that I'd committed with an unredacted credential.

    What I Learned Implementing the Same Program in Eight Languages

    One of the tasks that I took on at work, recently, required updating the details of an existing code project. The project originally showed how to send SMS in each of the seven languages mentioned, except Rust.  Now, however, it needed to show how to reply to an SMS as well. I've worked with each of the language over the years, except for C#, so thought that it would be a fun challenge to brush up my skills in each one, and to learn just enough about C# to complete the implementation. Over the course of implementing the required functionality in each language (PHP, Rust, Go, Python, Ruby, C#, JavaScript, and Java), I had the unexpected pleasure of learning a lot about each one, and seeing many of their similarities and differences. In this episode, I'm sharing some of what I learned. I hope you'll be as interested in what I learned as I was.

    What I'll be Focusing on in 2026 and Why (in greater depth)

    As I started talking about in the last episode, this year I'll be focusing primarily on accessibility, testing, and deployment. In this episode, I thought it important to set out why in a decent amount of depth. So, why? Well, essentially, because they're of interest to me, because having a more narrow rather than broad focus makes life easier to focus and learn, and because they're areas that I messed up in over the years and want to do much better at.

    Welcome (a little belatedly) to 2026

    Welcome, if a little late, to 2026! In this (quite short) episode, I set out the broad direction for the podcast for the coming year so that you know what to expect. In short, while not a lot has changed, some things have! While I'm still talking about web application development, this year, I'll be focusing on three areas: accessibility, testing, and deployment. Does that sound like something for you? Then stick around.

    Git Merge and Rebase. Plus Interactive Rebasing and Why It's Not So Scary.

    Today, I'm stepping beyond the nine essential Git commands you need to know that I covered in the previous episode by talking about Git merge, rebase, and interactive rebasing. These are commands that you need to become comfortable with (well, maybe not interactive rebasing) if you want to use Git in any meaningful way. I hope that, after listening to this episode, you feel that interactive rebasing, when used thoughtfully, properly, is your friend, and nothing to be afraid of.

    The Nine Essential Git Commands You Need to Know When Working With Git

    In this episode, I share with you the nine essential commands that you need to know to get started working with Git. It starts off with git init and git clone and finishes up with git fetch and git pull. Admittedly, this episode is targeted at users who are newer to Git. But, even if you're a more seasoned user, there might be something in this episode for you! Such as pointing out something that I overlooked, missed, or got wrong.
