  • Find Your Pond
    Nov 2 2024

    In this episode I talk about being a "big fish in a small pond" and what a difference that can make. I also share a bit about where I have been and what I have been up to for the past year and a half or so.

  • Beware of the hype train
    Jun 9 2023

    In this episode, I discuss the issue of hype in our industry. In particular, I discuss the recent article by the Amazon Prime team and how they saved over 90% of their costs by switching from microservices to a monolithic architecture. I also rant about Crypto, blockchain, and other technologies that never delivered on their promise.

    Apr 29 2023

    In this episode, I discuss how and why you need to get used to feeling uncomfortable. Being willing to step outside your comfort zone is a superpower and will have a lasting impact on your career as a developer. I also discuss imposter syndrome and provide you with some tools for dealing with it.
