Panel: Charles Max Wood John Papa Aaron Frost Special Guest:  Juan Herrera In this episode, the panelists talk with today’s special guest, Juan Herrera. The guys talk about community and how the Angular community is different than others out there. The following topics are discussed: calls for proposals (CFP), talking at conferences, Meetups, and reaching out to others within the same field as yours. The team emphasizes how meeting and networking not only creates great business connections, but great lasting friendships, too! Check it out! Show Topics: 0:00 – Advertisement: AngularBootCamp.Com 0:52 – Chuck: Hello! Our panel is Eric, John, and myself. Our special guest today is Juan Herrera! 1:00 – Panel and guest go back-and-forth. 2:28 – Chuck: Let’s discuss how to think about community locally, nationally, and internationally! 2:39 – Guest talks about his background and his work in Columbia. 4:00 – Aaron: I will give my talk in Spanish and it will be epic. I think we should start a hashtag “bonniemademedoit.” Aaron is talking about Bonnie and how she’s inspired Juan and many, many people.  5;18 – Chuck: She is so enthusiastic about this stuff you have a hard time telling her “no.” 5:32 – Guest. 6:00 – Panel: I am proud that she is apart of our community, which is our topic today. 6:26 – Guest: Yes, I think these conferences help make people pumped-up about these sort of things. 6:53 – Chuck: I am curious when talk about community – talking about global communities they are similar to other Meetups and incorporate their own way of doing things. How do you find that your particular area is unique in its own way? 7:32 – Guest: When we start this community I want to see what’s already out there? Once I know that I was trying to mimic what was already out there. In addition to that I went out of my way to figure out how to make people feel welcomed and find our own niche. 10:27: Panel: Hey – let’s create a community! I think sometimes it’s deliberate and other times it just happened. It sounded like you were very intentional. How did you get people involved? How did you get the word out? How did you get people to give talks? 11:10 – Guest: Yes that is a great challenge for us. Great question! I wanted to help people gain exposure and to help them participate at the conference. After giving their talk we give them a special gift. It can be a shirt or sticker or something. It seems enough for people to come and participate. We realized some people were scared to participate b/c imposter syndrome kicked-in. We made sure they felt comfortable and it helped them to participate. 15:00 – Panel: Yeah it sounds like 300 is a very solid conference. Good job! 15:18 – Chuck: Yeah they compare it to the bigger conferences when the local conferences are just as strong and good. Sometimes the smaller conferences are really nice b/c they are more intimate. 16:05 – Panel: I am not a fan of these massive conferences. Great, but you can’t have conversation with 50,000 people. You go to the vendor floor – it’s loud and dark. I go to conferences to talk and listen to them. I like to listen to their challenges and hear stories. 17:01 – Panel: I enjoy the variety. 17:48 – Panel: Just the quality of people that were there was fantastic. NG VIKINGS is a great one to go to! 18:10 – Panel: I saw the conference for New Zealand? And the one that is in Antarctica?! 19:10 – Panel: Some people say: I don’t know how to get involved with X conference? I have a hard time giving advice b/c we all have different backgrounds. Who wants to present on Chrome Frame? Or... 21:07 – Guest: Not everyone is outgoing nor comfortable being in front of an audience. However, just practicing helps! 21:33 – Advertisement: Get A Coder Job! 22:12 – Panel: Chuck, I want to hear about your community! 22:25 – Chuck: I can’t go to a development conference that doesn’t know who I am. I thrive off of people and connecting with them. There are a lot of great opportunities from learning from folks. The email went out this morning and get in the general channel and say: What do you listen to? What are you up to? It’s nice to hear feedback. 25:54 – Panel: I appreciate the work you’ve done within the community, too, Chuck! 26:08 – Panel: My community I’ve been around the block for about 20+ years. I get into one technology and then bounce from one to the other. I’ve had the blessing to be apart of many different communities. I did a lot of JavaScript back in the day and then left when it was a mess. These communities all have something similar: people come together. They want to find others who look/act like them! These experiences change people’s lives! 28:11 – Guest: Through these communities I’ve made a lot of friends and great colleagues. Not just professional but also personal. 28:44 – Panel: Yep the people that I’ve met through Twitter and conferences. 29:00 – Panel. 29:33 – Panel: I was in Poland a few weeks ago and I met some guys – two different Mike’s. I love how down-to-earth these guys are and I think it’s awesome to meet these great people at these conferences! 30:11 – Panel: Go to Angular conferences if you can! 31:25 – Panel: I tell people to do the same thing! 33:17 – Guest: Yeah there are people out there that are introverted, but know that other people are like you, too! Reach out to people before the conference and Tweet at them! Invite people to your group and meet-up at conferences and have a coffee! 34:55 – Panel: I meet a lot of people on Twitter. 35:51 – Panel: I think we are getting to the end and I need to say this. The angular community is a bit different compared to other communities. One thing that this community doesn’t have is the focus of the community. On top of the community are Rob, Steven, Jewels and Naomi and others! I think the Angular team themselves really care! I know they care. 38:09 – Guest: I completely agree with you, Aaron! We appreciate it! 38:25 – Chuck: To wrap-up let’s talk to you, Juan, about where communities should be going to take care of the people 38:45 – Guest: Yeah, what are we going to do next year? Are we going to do Meetups? Do they need something else? What are the needs of our members today and tomorrow? We decided to change the format. We realized that Meetups are great but they are 20-minute talks and they aren’t enough for our members. We do 4 hour Meetup that is called the MEGA MEETUP! 41:00 – Fresh Books! END – CacheFly!

Panel: Dave Kimura Charles Max Wood Nate Hopkins Special Guest: Josh Justice In this episode of Ruby Rogues, the panelists talk with Josh Justice who is a developer, writer, and speaker. Josh streams JavaScript and web development on Friday’s at 2:00 PM (ET) here! The panelists and the guest talk about Josh’s background and frontend testing in Ruby. Check it out! Show Topics: 0:00 – Advertisement: Sentry.io 1:04 – Chuck: Hi! Dave, Nate, and myself are on the panel and our special guest is Josh Justice! I am developing a show about developer freedom and it’s called The DevRev. It will be streamed through YouTube, and I will record Friday afternoons. Check out Facebook, too! 2:11 – Josh: Thanks! I am happy to be here! 2:18 – Chuck: Introduce yourself, please! 2:24 – Josh: I have been a developer for about 14 years. I have used PHP and then got into Ruby and then frontend development. 2:46 – Chuck: You work for Big Nerd Ranch in Atlanta? 2:56 – Josh: Yep for the last 3-4 years! 3:15 – Chuck: Can you introduce the topic? 3:25 – The guest talks about Big Nerd Ranch and frontend development. Learn TDD is mentioned, too! Check it out here! 5:06 – Panel: How much bouncing do you do between React and Vue? 5:11 – Guest. 5:47 – Chuck: We need to get you on our podcast shows for React and Vue! It’s an approach that I am familiar with in Ruby – and Selenium what a pain! 6:16 – Guest: I’ve had a good experience with Cypress, actually! 7:47 – Guest: Panelist, can you share your experiences? 7:57 – Panel: Not bad experiences with testing, but now I am trying to minimize my use with JavaScript. 8:30 – Guest: I think there is a big push towards considering more server site rendering. 9:35 – Panel: What’s your recommendation to setup Cypress? 9:40 – Guest: Their docs are really great! They had some conference talks on how to set it up! 10:15 – Guest: Check out my talks about this topic. (Connect Tech 2018). 10:29 – Panel: I think Cypress is a pretty cool solution but one thing that left me confused is that you have to have an environment that is already stood-up and running. Is that accurate or has that changed? 11:00 – Guest: Can you clarify what you mean by a “running environment”? 11:04 – Panelist clarifies. 11:44 – Guest: Luckily for me I have something to say b/c I tried a week ago! 12:01 – Guest mentions Vue CLI 3. 14:38 – Panel: How can you test your code coverage? I want to know how much of my code coverage am I hitting? The applications are up and running, it’s not going through the files (per se), and is there anything that would indicate how good your coverage is with the Cypress test? 15:10 – Guest: Let me as a follow-up question: How do you approach it on the frontend? 15:24 – Panelist answers the guest’s question. 16:06 – The guest mentions Vue CLI 2 & 3. 18:31 – Chuck: Are you using the tool Istanbul? 18:36 – Guest: Yep Istanbul is the one! 18:54 – Chuck: I’ve heard some similar rumors, but can’t say. 19:02 – Panelist talks. 20:13 – Chuck: I have been working on a project and what doesn’t get test-coverage gets a candidate to get pulled-out. 20:40 – Guest: Talking about test-driven development... Guest: Have you read the original book? 21:02 – Guest: The book: “Effective Testing with RSpec 3” is updated information – check it out! The guest mentions his live stream on Friday’s. Check out the links found below! 23:57 – Panel: How is the stability with tests like Cypress with end-to-end tests? If you are testing with a login then the user has to be already created. Or what about a Twitter app – the user has to be created and not followed? How do you handle that? 24:22 – Guest: I think we are spoiled in the Rails world b/c of those... 24:53 – The guest answers the panelist’s question! 26:59 – Fresh Books! 28:07 – Guest: Does that help? 28:10 – Panel. 28:21 – Guest: I have been thinking about this, though, recently. Thinking about the contracts through the business. I have dabbled with native development and I see the cost that runs a native app. 30:21 – Panel: It’s refreshing to hear the new market’s demands. I truly haven’t seen an application that requires that. I have built some extensive applications and also very simple ones, too; the need for productivity. 31:17 – Guest mentions a talk at a conference. See here for that information! 31:43 – Guest: I have a friend who was a new developer and he really knows his stuff. He said that he didn’t know if he could be a full stack developer in the next 5-10 years. Wait a minute?! Guest: The freedom to create something that stands alone. Guest: Tom Dale is mentioned by the Guest. 33:35 – Panel: To choose Rails as a new developer (today) it’s not as easy as it was back in the day. Today you have Active Job, Action Cable and so many other components. It’s more complicated today then it was in the past. It could be overwhelming to a new developer. 35:00 – Chuck: I think a lot of that is the community’s fault and not Rails’ fault. 35:57 – Panel. 36:04 – Panel: The counter-argument could say that’s where server-less come in. 36:27 – Chuck: To some degree you can get away with it. You don’t have to worry about the infrastructure or anything else. 36:44 – Panel: Have you tried messing around with server-less functions with AWS? I have and...it’s not easy. There is not a good flow or good work flow in a server-less environment. 38:01 – Chuck: You can go to this website. It makes the setup easier b/c you are adding your Azure or AWS features. 38:30 – Panel: This topic, though, does tie back to the testing topic we were talking about earlier! 39:14 – Panel: Yeah that is why I haven’t gotten into server-less things. The Rails holistic approach is so appealing. 40:14 – Panel continues: I want to take smaller steps when it comes to technology! I want to move into things that we are laying down the tracks to make it easier travelable. That way we can consider the things we’ve learned in the past and help those in the future. 41:07 – Chuck: What are lacking then? What is the friction that is left? Seems like Cypress helped removed that but maybe not? 42:02 – Panelist mentions Cypress, Jest, Mocha, and others! 43:10 – Panel (continues): I am all about experimenting but I want to know all the reasons. What has changed and what hasn’t’ changed? 43:29 – Panel: There is an article written that talks about this topic. 43:59 – Guest mentions the video “Is TDD Dead?” (See links below.) 44:29 – Guest: I like brining thoughts together and taking his or her input and come up with my own thoughts.  46:32 – Guest (continues): The testing trophy is heavier on the top (picture of a trophy). Guest: I think the thing that draws me to unit testing is that... 47:37 – Guest: I am obsessed with testing. The guest gives a summary here! 48:15 – Chuck: We talked with Quincy Larson last week and it’s a really good take on what we are doing and what we are trying to accomplish with our tests. Check it out – it’s coming out soon! 49:05 – Panel: When you are younger into your career – the way you think about structuring your code – when you are comfortable you really don’t need that guidance. 50:00 – Guest: I would encourage folks who were new to coding to do the following... 51:36 – Guest: Think about WHY you are doing (what you are doing) and being able to articulate well what you are doing and why. 52:03 – Panel: There is no question – every time I test I am surprised how much it shapes my thinking about the code and how many bugs that I catch even in code that I thought was operating well. When you go too far though there is a fallacy there. 52:54 – Panel: Yes, testing is very important. I am a test-after-the-fact programmer. That is my self-key term. Don’t write 500-line methods b/c you won’t be able to test that. Don’t make it too abstract so have a common pattern that you will use. Have a lot of private methods that aren’t exposed to the API. 54:03 – Guest: Yes thinking about how to structure your code can be challenging at first but it gets easier. 55:58 – Chuck: I have had talks with Corey Haines about topics like this! 56:47 – Guest: Yes it can be helpful in consultancy now. 59:23 – Guest: Think about this: choosing what level to test at. 1:00:14 – Panel: It’s hard b/c it changes all the time per function or something else. There are tradeoffs with everything we do. 1:00:41 – Chuck: You are the consultant it depends doesn’t it? 1:00:51 – Picks! 1:00:55 – Advertisement: Get A Coder Job! End – Cache Fly!

Show Topics: 0:00 – Advertisement: Sentry.io 1:04 – Chuck: Hi! Dave, Nate, and myself are on the panel and our special guest is Josh Justice! I am developing a show about developer freedom and it’s called The DevRev. It will be streamed through YouTube, and I will record Friday afternoons. Check out Facebook, too! 2:11 – Josh: Thanks! I am happy to be here! 2:18 – Chuck: Introduce yourself, please! 2:24 – Josh: I have been a developer for about 14 years. I have used PHP and then got into Ruby and then frontend development. 2:46 – Chuck: You work for Big Nerd Ranch in Atlanta? 2:56 – Josh: Yep for the last 3-4 years! 3:15 – Chuck: Can you introduce the topic? 3:25 – The guest talks about Big Nerd Ranch and frontend development. Learn TDD is mentioned, too! Check it out here! 5:06 – Panel: How much bouncing do you do between React and Vue? 5:11 – Guest. 5:47 – Chuck: We need to get you on our podcast shows for React and Vue! It’s an approach that I am familiar with in Ruby – and Selenium what a pain! 6:16 – Guest: I’ve had a good experience with Cypress, actually! 7:47 – Guest: Panelist, can you share your experiences? 7:57 – Panel: Not bad experiences with testing, but now I am trying to minimize my use with JavaScript. 8:30 – Guest: I think there is a big push towards considering more server site rendering. 9:35 – Panel: What’s your recommendation to setup Cypress? 9:40 – Guest: Their docs are really great! They had some conference talks on how to set it up! 10:15 – Guest: Check out my talks about this topic. (Connect Tech 2018). 10:29 – Panel: I think Cypress is a pretty cool solution but one thing that left me confused is that you have to have an environment that is already stood-up and running. Is that accurate or has that changed? 11:00 – Guest: Can you clarify what you mean by a “running environment”? 11:04 – Panelist clarifies. 11:44 – Guest: Luckily for me I have something to say b/c I tried a week ago! 12:01 – Guest mentions Vue CLI 3. 14:38 – Panel: How can you test your code coverage? I want to know how much of my code coverage am I hitting? The applications are up and running, it’s not going through the files (per se), and is there anything that would indicate how good your coverage is with the Cypress test? 15:10 – Guest: Let me as a follow-up question: How do you approach it on the frontend? 15:24 – Panelist answers the guest’s question. 16:06 – The guest mentions Vue CLI 2 & 3. 18:31 – Chuck: Are you using the tool Istanbul? 18:36 – Guest: Yep Istanbul is the one! 18:54 – Chuck: I’ve heard some similar rumors, but can’t say. 19:02 – Panelist talks. 20:13 – Chuck: I have been working on a project and what doesn’t get test-coverage gets a candidate to get pulled-out. 20:40 – Guest: Talking about test-driven development... Guest: Have you read the original book? 21:02 – Guest: The book: “Effective Testing with RSpec 3” is updated information – check it out! The guest mentions his live stream on Friday’s. Check out the links found below! 23:57 – Panel: How is the stability with tests like Cypress with end-to-end tests? If you are testing with a login then the user has to be already created. Or what about a Twitter app – the user has to be created and not followed? How do you handle that? 24:22 – Guest: I think we are spoiled in the Rails world b/c of those... 24:53 – The guest answers the panelist’s question! 26:59 – Fresh Books! 28:07 – Guest: Does that help? 28:10 – Panel. 28:21 – Guest: I have been thinking about this, though, recently. Thinking about the contracts through the business. I have dabbled with native development and I see the cost that runs a native app. 30:21 – Panel: It’s refreshing to hear the new market’s demands. I truly haven’t seen an application that requires that. I have built some extensive applications and also very simple ones, too; the need for productivity. 31:17 – Guest mentions a talk at a conference. See here for that information! 31:43 – Guest: I have a friend who was a new developer and he really knows his stuff. He said that he didn’t know if he could be a full stack developer in the next 5-10 years. Wait a minute?! Guest: The freedom to create something that stands alone. Guest: Tom Dale is mentioned by the Guest. 33:35 – Panel: To choose Rails as a new developer (today) it’s not as easy as it was back in the day. Today you have Active Job, Action Cable and so many other components. It’s more complicated today then it was in the past. It could be overwhelming to a new developer. 35:00 – Chuck: I think a lot of that is the community’s fault and not Rails’ fault. 35:57 – Panel. 36:04 – Panel: The counter-argument could say that’s where server-less come in. 36:27 – Chuck: To some degree you can get away with it. You don’t have to worry about the infrastructure or anything else. 36:44 – Panel: Have you tried messing around with server-less functions with AWS? I have and...it’s not easy. There is not a good flow or good work flow in a server-less environment. 38:01 – Chuck: You can go to this website. It makes the setup easier b/c you are adding your Azure or AWS features. 38:30 – Panel: This topic, though, does tie back to the testing topic we were talking about earlier! 39:14 – Panel: Yeah that is why I haven’t gotten into server-less things. The Rails holistic approach is so appealing. 40:14 – Panel continues: I want to take smaller steps when it comes to technology! I want to move into things that we are laying down the tracks to make it easier travelable. That way we can consider the things we’ve learned in the past and help those in the future. 41:07 – Chuck: What are lacking then? What is the friction that is left? Seems like Cypress helped removed that but maybe not? 42:02 – Panelist mentions Cypress, Jest, Mocha, and others! 43:10 – Panel (continues): I am all about experimenting but I want to know all the reasons. What has changed and what hasn’t’ changed? 43:29 – Panel: There is an article written that talks about this topic. 43:59 – Guest mentions the video “Is TDD Dead?” (See links below.) 44:29 – Guest: I like brining thoughts together and taking his or her input and come up with my own thoughts.  46:32 – Guest (continues): The testing trophy is heavier on the top (picture of a trophy). Guest: I think the thing that draws me to unit testing is that... 47:37 – Guest: I am obsessed with testing. The guest gives a summary here! 48:15 – Chuck: We talked with Quincy Larson last week and it’s a really good take on what we are doing and what we are trying to accomplish with our tests. Check it out – it’s coming out soon! 49:05 – Panel: When you are younger into your career – the way you think about structuring your code – when you are comfortable you really don’t need that guidance. 50:00 – Guest: I would encourage folks who were new to coding to do the following... 51:36 – Guest: Think about WHY you are doing (what you are doing) and being able to articulate well what you are doing and why. 52:03 – Panel: There is no question – every time I test I am surprised how much it shapes my thinking about the code and how many bugs that I catch even in code that I thought was operating well. When you go too far though there is a fallacy there. 52:54 – Panel: Yes, testing is very important. I am a test-after-the-fact programmer. That is my self-key term. Don’t write 500-line methods b/c you won’t be able to test that. Don’t make it too abstract so have a common pattern that you will use. Have a lot of private methods that aren’t exposed to the API. 54:03 – Guest: Yes thinking about how to structure your code can be challenging at first but it gets easier. 55:58 – Chuck: I have had talks with Corey Haines about topics like this! 56:47 – Guest: Yes it can be helpful in consultancy now. 59:23 – Guest: Think about this: choosing what level to test at. 1:00:14 – Panel: It’s hard b/c it changes all the time per function or something else. There are tradeoffs with everything we do. 1:00:41 – Chuck: You are the consultant it depends doesn’t it? 1:00:51 – Picks! 1:00:55 – Advertisement: Get A Coder Job! End – Cache Fly!

Panel: Dave Kimura Eric Berry Charles Max Wood Nate Hopkins Special Guest: Pedro Cavalheiro In this episode of Ruby Rogues, the panelists talk with Pedro Cavalheiro who is from Brazil, but currently resides in Hamburg, Germany where he works at Xing. He is a software engineer, an actor, and has been working with the web since 2010. He has worked mostly with Ruby and PHP languages, and since 2015 has worked full-time with Ruby on Rails. The panelists and Pedro talk about his background and his article. Check it out! Show Topics: 0:00 – Advertisement: Sentry.io 1:04 – Chuck: Hi! Panel is Eric, Dave, Nate, myself – and our special guest is Pedro Cavalheiro! Please introduce yourself! Is that Spanish or Portuguese? Chuck: P.S. – The DevRev is my new show and check it! 1:57 – Guest: My name means gentleman! Here at your service. 2:05 – Guest: I am a developer and worked with web technologies for 10 years. I do some DevOps stuff and working with Ruby. I just moved to Hamburg, Germany with the same company. 3:02 – Chuck: How do you make that decision? 3:07 – Guest: There is no magical answer. It depends on your needs and what time you have? At the time when I wrote that article I worked with a small startup company. For us, we used Heroku at the time. 4:09 – Guest: Current company is bigger and 500 developers. We have different ops teams and they have their own infrastructure and tools. They have more money, time, and people. For what they need it needs to be more scalable. It depends on the company and the requirements and your resources. 5:00 – Panel: I need to preface first: I love hosted solutions, but at the same time there is a hidden cost set that people don’t think about. 6:16 – Guest: If you compare your own infrastructure vs. cloud platform they will think that it is cheaper than having a hosted solution. 7:28 – Chuck: Yeah, that’s a discussion that I find that I have with myself and with my own company. It makes a ton of sense to have some system setup and it’s something that I am managing. 8:05 – Panelists talks about AWS and AMI. 9:06 – Guest. 9:21 – Panel: Can you talk about the article you wrote? Why did you write it? Give us some context into the article and where are we now? 9:48 – Guest talks in-detail about his article and where he was in life when he wrote this article! 14:10 – Panel: How much time did you invest into that? 14:16 – Guest: Less than a week; maybe 3-4 days for the whole process. Writing the article took about 2 days. 14:50 – Chuck talks about Docker, Azure, Dokku among other things. Question: Where do you look at all of these different things, and how do evaluate? 16:02 – Guest: I am a huge Heroku fan, and I would suggest people to use it. It’s brilliant. The company I work today it could be expensive to use b/c it’s a heavy load application and it won’t work. As for me (personal projects) I will play around these different tools. 19:02 – Panel: It’s easy to get up and running of Heroku. I think it’s similar to Kubernetes. 20:00 – Guest: I agree with that. The guest shares a story that relates to this topic. 21:45 – Panel: If you are using self-hosted...put some security on your application. Even if it’s just a demo you are protecting your environment. 22:17 – Chuck: Where do you guys come down on making these types of decisions? 22:30 – Panel: I see it as an investment; especially if your development team is small.  Eventually, it will scale but in the early days of a project it is a legit choice to use Heroku or Beanstalk. CodeFund is still on Heroku. Right now it’s solving those problems for us. 23:45 – Chuck: Look at everything that we are all running. What do you guys recommend? 24:19 – Panel: I use S3, elastic search, among other things. 25:56 – Guest: I have a similar story. I had some friends who were spending more than $2,000 a month on Heroku. We tried to find how to reduce the amount of money. We removed the application from the Heroku and put it inside a local machine (probably $800 computer) that runs 24/7 and the only expenses were Internet ($50.00 / month) and 1 SSD ($100) and 1 micro-server through Amazon. Now it works and we were spending over 200x the amount that we needed to. In this example it wasn’t a critical system. In this case self-host was far better and cheaper, so it really depends on your case. 28:08 – Panel: Yeah, sometimes the old school and simple solutions are it. 28:26 – Chuck: I have a virtual machine/servers on Digital Ocean, and I cap deploy. I will login in every-now-and-then, but that’s it. 28:50 – Panel adds in his comments to this topic. 29:17 – Guest: Sometimes these old school solutions tend to be slower, but it depends on what you need for that situation. 29:50 – Chuck: David Brady called that his “Time to Twitter.” 30:04 – Fresh Books! 31:10 – Chuck: Can you talk about your discussion about this, please? 31:23 – Guest: I wrote this article, and it was translated into a few different languages. In the talk that I gave, I talked about my article. It’s funny b/c I wasn’t expecting all of this attention. 33:33 – Guest: I was nervous when I gave the talk so I don’t think it was that good. (Laughs.) 33:50 – Guest: We are human beings and we are always making mistakes, which is okay. 36:55 – Chuck: Yeah I run into that, too. Especially when running the podcast. 37:14 – Guest: That’s apart of the game right? We like to play with new technologies and if it weren’t for experimenting with new stuff our whole industry wouldn’t be as fun. We have the freedom to test, and we get to break tings and not get fired. That’s apart of our jobs. 37:51 – Panel: That’s a good point. A service like beanstalk or Heroku it’s easy to push your app out into the world. But when you dig in deeper, I think that knowledge really starts to seep in and you get to be a better developer. 38:27 – Chuck comments on this topic. 39:12 – Panel: To Pedro’s point... 39:42 – Guest: Yes, we work as a frontend or backend developer or a system administrator, but we need to understand the infrastructure. I want to know and when I know more then my work as a backend developer will improve and communicate with the system. That people know how to use Ruby on Rails and they get used to it but forget about database behind that, and...where you can write your own inquires. They think it’s not their job, but it IS their job. 41:17 – Chuck: To take that step one step further. Chuck talks about performance issues, codes, and more. 41:48 – Chuck: I want to try out Dokku! 42:00 – Guest comments. 43:53 – Chuck: Let’s do Picks! 44:00 – Advertisement: Get A Coder Job!

Give us some context into the article and where are we now? 9:48 – Guest talks in-detail about his article and where he was in life when he wrote this article! 14:10 – Panel: How much time did you invest into that? 14:16 – Guest: Less than a week; maybe 3-4 days for the whole process. Writing the article took about 2 days. 14:50 – Chuck talks about Docker, Azure, Dokku among other things. Question: Where do you look at all of these different things, and how do evaluate? 16:02 – Guest: I am a huge Heroku fan, and I would suggest people to use it. It’s brilliant. The company I work today it could be expensive to use b/c it’s a heavy load application and it won’t work. As for me (personal projects) I will play around these different tools. 19:02 – Panel: It’s easy to get up and running of Heroku. I think it’s similar to Kubernetes. 20:00 – Guest: I agree with that. The guest shares a story that relates to this topic. 21:45 – Panel: If you are using self-hosted...put some security on your application. Even if it’s just a demo you are protecting your environment. 22:17 – Chuck: Where do you guys come down on making these types of decisions? 22:30 – Panel: I see it as an investment; especially if your development team is small.  Eventually, it will scale but in the early days of a project it is a legit choice to use Heroku or Beanstalk. CodeFund is still on Heroku. Right now it’s solving those problems for us. 23:45 – Chuck: Look at everything that we are all running. What do you guys recommend? 24:19 – Panel: I use S3, elastic search, among other things. 25:56 – Guest: I have a similar story. I had some friends who were spending more than $2,000 a month on Heroku. We tried to find how to reduce the amount of money. We removed the application from the Heroku and put it inside a local machine (probably $800 computer) that runs 24/7 and the only expenses were Internet ($50.00 / month) and 1 SSD ($100) and 1 micro-server through Amazon. Now it works and we were spending over 200x the amount that we needed to. In this example it wasn’t a critical system. In this case self-host was far better and cheaper, so it really depends on your case. 28:08 – Panel: Yeah, sometimes the old school and simple solutions are it. 28:26 – Chuck: I have a virtual machine/servers on Digital Ocean, and I cap deploy. I will login in every-now-and-then, but that’s it. 28:50 – Panel adds in his comments to this topic. 29:17 – Guest: Sometimes these old school solutions tend to be slower, but it depends on what you need for that situation. 29:50 – Chuck: David Brady called that his “Time to Twitter.” 30:04 – Fresh Books! 31:10 – Chuck: Can you talk about your discussion about this, please? 31:23 – Guest: I wrote this article, and it was translated into a few different languages. In the talk that I gave, I talked about my article. It’s funny b/c I wasn’t expecting all of this attention. 33:33 – Guest: I was nervous when I gave the talk so I don’t think it was that good. (Laughs.) 33:50 – Guest: We are human beings and we are always making mistakes, which is okay. 36:55 – Chuck: Yeah I run into that, too. Especially when running the podcast. 37:14 – Guest: That’s apart of the game right? We like to play with new technologies and if it weren’t for experimenting with new stuff our whole industry wouldn’t be as fun. We have the freedom to test, and we get to break tings and not get fired. That’s apart of our jobs. 37:51 – Panel: That’s a good point. A service like beanstalk or Heroku it’s easy to push your app out into the world. But when you dig in deeper, I think that knowledge really starts to seep in and you get to be a better developer. 38:27 – Chuck comments on this topic. 39:12 – Panel: To Pedro’s point... 39:42 – Guest: Yes, we work as a frontend or backend developer or a system administrator, but we need to understand the infrastructure. I want to know and when I know more then my work as a backend developer will improve and communicate with the system. That people know how to use Ruby on Rails and they get used to it but forget about database behind that, and...where you can write your own inquires. They think it’s not their job, but it IS their job. 41:17 – Chuck: To take that step one step further. Chuck talks about performance issues, codes, and more. 41:48 – Chuck: I want to try out Dokku! 42:00 – Guest comments. 43:53 – Chuck: Let’s do Picks! 44:00 – Advertisement: Get A Coder Job!

He is a software engineer, an actor, and has been working with the web since 2010. He has worked mostly with Ruby and PHP languages, and since 2015 has worked full-time with Ruby on Rails. The panelists and Pedro talk about his background and his article. Check it out! Show Topics: 0:00 – Advertisement: Sentry.io 1:04 – Chuck: Hi! Panel is Eric, Dave, Nate, myself – and our special guest is Pedro Cavalheiro! Please introduce yourself! Is that Spanish or Portuguese? Chuck: P.S. – The DevRev is my new show and check it! 1:57 – Guest: My name means gentleman! Here at your service. 2:05 – Guest: I am a developer and worked with web technologies for 10 years. I do some DevOps stuff and working with Ruby. I just moved to Hamburg, Germany with the same company. 3:02 – Chuck: How do you make that decision? 3:07 – Guest: There is no magical answer. It depends on your needs and what time you have? At the time when I wrote that article I worked with a small startup company. For us, we used Heroku at the time. 4:09 – Guest: Current company is bigger and 500 developers. We have different ops teams and they have their own infrastructure and tools. They have more money, time, and people. For what they need it needs to be more scalable. It depends on the company and the requirements and your resources. 5:00 – Panel: I need to preface first: I love hosted solutions, but at the same time there is a hidden cost set that people don’t think about. 6:16 – Guest: If you compare your own infrastructure vs. cloud platform they will think that it is cheaper than having a hosted solution. 7:28 – Chuck: Yeah, that’s a discussion that I find that I have with myself and with my own company. It makes a ton of sense to have some system setup and it’s something that I am managing. 8:05 – Panelists talks about AWS and AMI. 9:06 – Guest. 9:21 – Panel: Can you talk about the article you wrote?
