The world of computer programming is vast in scope. There are literally thousands of topics to cover and no one person could ever reach them all. One of the goals of the Coding Blocks podcast is to introduce a number of these topics to the audience so they can learn during their commute or while cutting the grass. We will cover topics such as best programming practices, design patterns, coding for performance, object oriented coding, database design and implementation, tips, tricks and a whole lot of other things. You'll be exposed to broad areas of information as well as deep dives into the guts of a programming language. While Microsoft.NET is the development platform we're using, most topics discussed are relevant in any number of Object Oriented programming languages. We are all web and database programmers and will be providing useful information on a full spectrum of technologies and are open to any suggestions anyone might have for a topic. So please join us, subscribe, and invite your computer programming friends to come along for the ride.Coding Blocks 2022

    Well, this is awkward.

    Coding Blocks is signing out for now, in this episode we'll talk about what's happening and why. We have had an amazing run, far better than we ever expected. Also, Joe recommends 50 games, Allen goes for the gold, and Outlaw is totally normal. (And we're not crying you're crying!)

    Thank you for the support over the last 11 (!!!) years. It's been a wild ride, and the last thing we ever expected when starting a tech podcast was getting to meet so many fantastic people.

    Tip of the Week

    • UFO 50 is an odd collection of 50 pseudo-retro video games made by a small group of game developers, most notably including Derek Yu of Spelunky. It's a unique and specific experience that reminds me of spending the night at your friend's house who had some console gaming system that you'd only ever heard rumors about. The games seem small and simple at first blush, but there is surprising depth. Favorites so far are Kick Club, Avianos, Attactics, and Mortol. (Steam)

I have been listening to Allen, Joe and Michael since I fell in love with .NET.

As an aspiring developer (since 2019 but still an amateur/hobbyist, I regret) I have found so much use in the unique perspectives that Coding Blocks present as to what it is like to be a developer. These guys will take you from the most basic concepts all throughout the gnarly, dark alcoves in the field that no tutorial will be able to illuminate for you out there. And the best part of it all is that they will make you feel like one of them while doing it!

Let alone, they manage to bring some much-needed context to all this stuff that is truly hard to understand for someone who hasn’t been employed in the field: someone who hasn’t worked with all these tools and methods that appear to be second nature and obvious to some people, and they make it easily digestible! These guys make the intimidating concepts less intimidating, and that is why I appreciate their contribution to globally educating more refined and informed developers.

These guys bring up what it is actually like to be employed as a developer. They emphasize tremendously on real life examples and that is what makes this podcast great for entry level developers, but it also provides a unique perspective to already experienced developers due to their thorough discussions on these topics. You get, FOR FREE, a tremendous amount of knowledge and experience just by listening to these three brilliant minds.

I can just say that this podcast inspires me on a daily basis to push forward with my ambitions, and it gives me some great pointers when it comes to getting into the IT-sector, and I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to be a fly on the wall around this water cooler talk between these gifted guys. I couldn't count how many tips and tricks supplied by these guys that I've actually found real life application for, and in some cases, they have been real life savers.

I hope that you guys will have the funds to continue as you are doing, because I am really learning a lot while having fun with you guys.

And there's Dad-Jokes.... Plenty of them!

Kind Regards
Glen Jakobsen

A great mix of education, experience and fun,

Hey,
Thanks for all the episodes, you guys make a great podcast.
I am a Software engineer student from Denmark and have been listening on and off for 2 years now. My favorite thing about this podcast is that it prepared me for many of the subjects in my class. It happens a lot that the teachers don't have time to tell us why something is important, which makes it hard to learn. Coding blocks explore WHY these things are important and make it so easy to become interested in learning computer science.

Hope you're doing great
Kind regards from Denmark.

A great place for Software student

A bunch of experienced technology guys who know each other, know their trade and enjoy sharing and learning from one another and their great community. Surprisingly technology agnostic with a wide spread of jokes and open minded approach to solving problems.

Would have given it a 3 or a 4 star review but that is part of an inside joke.

Keep up the great work!

Intelligent and informal

Alan, Joe and Michael are great hosts, they enjoy having a good laugh (at the expense of themselves sometimes). They obviously all have extensive knowledge in the development world and I'm always tuning into new episodes to see the topic of conversation its like sitting down to talk with friends.

love the podcast and probably one of the best programming/development podcasts out there

one of the best development podcasts out there

I searched the web for best coding podcasts and Coding Blocks came up as a suggestion. Clearly the best coding podcast I've heard. I've listen to it for years now, and I don't think I've heard an episode yet where I haven't both laughed and learned. I listen to all episodes twice for the same reason. I'm a self taught programmer, and their discussions about best practices and coding techniques etc. is awesome. Thank you guys!

With love from Denmark
