In this episode of Maintainable, Robby welcomes Scott Hanselman, VP of Developer Community at Microsoft and host of the Hanselminutes Podcast, to discuss the emotional side of maintainable software. Scott shares his thoughts on fear as a common thread in poorly maintained software, the importance of building a team culture of trust, and how finding a good work-life balance helps create better software.The Role of Fear in Technical DebtScott believes that if you fear the software you work on, it's a tell-tale sign that it has maintainability issues.Technical debt is rooted in fear--either fear of making a change that will break something or fear of being unable to change something when needed.He encourages teams to talk openly about their fears and anxieties regarding the software and to consider what things give them confidence in the codebase.Building a Team Culture of ConfidenceScott emphasizes the importance of empathy in overcoming technical debt and making software more maintainable.Senior engineers and team leads have a responsibility to make junior developers feel safe enough to speak up and ask questions.He advocates for providing new hires with small, achievable tasks to build their confidence and trust in the software.Scott encourages teams to use "inner loop" and "outer loop" thinking.Inner loop - The cycle of making a change, hitting f5, and seeing changes immediately.Outer loop - Things like deploying the codebase, getting it tested, ensuring production stability.Both experienced and junior engineers have their own inner and outer loops as individuals, and continuous improvement at all levels is key.Overcoming Fear, Embracing Maintainability, and Finding BalanceScott shares stories about Microsoft's journey with open-source software and how that process has shaped the company's culture around maintainable code.He talks about the importance of striking a balance between source-opened and open-source software and finding the sweet spot for a project or organization.Scott warns against the trap of striving for unattainable perfection. Aiming for good, solid repeatable work over perfection ultimately yields better results.He uses his own projects, like the Hanselminutes podcast, as examples of focusing on consistent outputs and utilizing a simple workflow.Scott advocates for using AI tools to transcribe coding sessions, freeing up developers from extensive note-taking.Book Recommendation:The Daily Stoic By Ryan HolidayScott Hanselman - Personal WebsiteHanselminutes Podcast.NET Open Source History: .NET Core | Microsoft LearnHelpful Links:Scott Hanselman - Personal WebsiteHanselminutes Podcast.NET Open Source History: .NET Core | Microsoft LearnThanks to Our Sponsor!Turn hours of debugging into just minutes!

Roblox is the closest platform to the true vision of the metaverse; a persistent, immersive, shared, 3D space that re-imagines how users can connect, communicate, play, shop, and express themselves. In a sense, Roblox can be viewed as the public beta of the metaverse. And Roblox is already emerging as the primary social platform for Gen Alpha and younger Gen Z. With 72 million daily active users and approximately 350 million monthly active users, all of whom spend about 2.4 hours per day on the platform, Roblox is truly the most engaging platform on the Internet. And with a user base that is increasingly getting older, with 40% of DAU now over the age of 16, Roblox is no longer just a platform for young kids. But how did the Roblox of today come to be? From its founding as Dynablox 20 years ago, to launching the first experience, to opening up the avatar economy and more, Yon and Matthew dive deep into the company and platform's history, its founders and its future in our latest episode of Into the Metaverse.

In this episode of Elixir Wizards, Xiang Ji and Nathan Hessler join hosts Sundi Myint and Owen Bickford to compare actor model implementation in Elixir, Ruby, and Clojure. In Elixir, the actor model is core to how the BEAM VM works, with lightweight processes communicating asynchronously via message passing. GenServers provide a common abstraction for building actors, handling messages, and maintaining internal state. In Ruby, the actor model is represented through Ractors, which currently map to OS threads. They discuss what we can learn by comparing models, understanding tradeoffs between VMs, languages, and concurrency primitives, and how this knowledge can help us choose the best tools for a project.

In this episode of Elixir Wizards, hosts Owen and Dan are joined by René Föhring, creator of Credo for Elixir, and Marc-André LaFortune, head maintainer of the RuboCop AST library for Ruby. They compare static code analysis in Ruby versus Elixir. The conversation explores the intricacies and challenges inherent in static code analysis across object-oriented and functional programming paradigms, highlighting the unique characteristics of both Ruby and Elixir. Key topics of discussion include the ways these tools can enhance coding styles and empower developers, the delicate balance between providing guidance and enforcing rules, and the evolving future of code analysis in these languages. Topics discussed in this episode: The differences and applications between static and dynamic analysis How Credo aims to offer flexible and educational guidance for Elixir developers The complexities of method identification in Ruby and its impact on static analysis Challenges posed by macros and dynamic code modification during compilation in Elixir Reducing false positives in code analysis tools to minimize developer frustration Promoting uniform coding practices through analysis tools The significance of using analysis tools with clear, specific objectives How coding standards can refine and improve coding styles over time Building analysis tools and checks through an understanding of Abstract Syntax Trees (ASTs) Potential advancements in the analysis of Phoenix templates and HTML in Elixir Contrasting approaches to managing code and comments in Elixir and Ruby ASTs The fine line between providing helpful guidance and imposing stylistic preferences Heuristics in static analysis highlight inconsistencies without mandating style The potential for more straightforward pattern matching in ASTs with future updates The importance of a gradual implementation of tool updates to maintain backward compatibility Creating tools that support and empower developers, rather than hinder them How static analysis contributes to cleaner, more maintainable codebases Potential future developments in the field of static code analysis Practical applications of using linters like Credo and RuboCop in software development Links mentioned in this episode: Credo https://github.com/rrrene/credo https://hexdocs.pm/credo/overview.html Dogma: A code style linter for Elixir https://github.com/lpil/dogma https://github.com/rubocop/rubocop RuboCop's AST extensions and NodePattern functionality https://github.com/rubocop/rubocop-ast https://github.com/whitequark/parser https://hex.pm/packages?search=credo&sort=recentdownloads https://github.com/doorgan/sourceror https://github.com/rrrene/credo/blob/master/lib/credo/check/readability/largenumbers.ex Special Guests: Marc-André Lafortune and René Föhring.

"Evangelism comes from a Greek term, meaning bringing the good news. So fundamentally, what an evangelist does is bring the good news.  And so with Macintosh, the good news was that this personal computer can increase your creativity and productivity. The good news with Canva was that this product, it can increase your ability to communicate by a democratizing design. That's the good news. My podcast can help you become a remarkable person because you listen to what other remarkable people have done and how they did it. That's the good news of my podcast.  So what an evangelist does is bring the good news of his or her product. Now, this assumes that your product is good news.  So if you don't have a product that is good news, it's very hard to use evangelism to make it successful." - Guy Kawasaki   Fresh from the studio, we had an enlightening conversation with Guy Kawasaki, Chief Evangelist at Canva, who delved into the essence of product evangelism and revealed how the power of positive messaging propels Canva forward. Guy also dissected the transformative role of generative AI in democratizing design, explaining how it amplifies productivity and sparks greater creativity among users. To cap it off, he offered a glimpse into what great would look like for Canva's future trajectory.

When Hurricane Ian struck Florida, many stood by and sent "thoughts and prayers" over social media. Instead of typing out sentiments, two men decided to take action. Air Force veteran Ryan Hontz and his neighbor Matt Ryan took it upon themselves to deliver much needed aid to the smaller communities devestated by Hurricane Ian. I joined Ryan on a relief run to Englewood, Fla., a small town in Sarasota County that was almost leveled by this hurricane, to deliver much needed supplies to those in need. You'll hear from surivors on what they've lost, learned, and the painful process of moving forward. Please, donate to any hurricane relief organization you feel right with, just do it and make a difference today! --- This is episode is sponsored by Sabio!

This week Joe is joined by Navy Veteran, Educator, and business owner, Bill Hoopes. Bill served for 16 years, finding success as a recruiter and ultimately reaching the rank of Chief Petty Officer. Prior to his naval service,  Bill dropped out of high school to help his Mom with bills and earned his GED. It was during this time he first experienced the restaurant business and the daily challenges it brings. Now Bill is the owner of the first Capital Tacos franchise, a quick service restaurant brand that is expanding on local success. Bill shares the challenges he faced transitioning from active duty after 16 years of service and the experience of starting his own business; using his lessons learned from the Navy and leveraging his wife's skills as an educator.  Learn more about Capital Tacos here.  About Our Guest  Bill Hoopes opted for helping his mother pay the bills over school growing up. A decision he doesn't regret at all. Though, he did eventually choose to return to education, enrolling in culinary school to hone the craft of cuisine and good food. He took that passion for food to the Navy, where he served for nearly two decades, whipping up food for his fellow soldiers all along the way. He then took the discipline and rigors inherent to military culture to guide him in his next adventure - which was a journey of entrepreneurship. He took over a local softball business in Tampa, while working as a teacher alongside his wife. And in the most exciting move yet, became the very first franchisee in the country for the nationally-awarded Capital Tacos QSR brand - paving the way and setting the stage for other entrepreneurs nationwide to follow in his footsteps.   Join the conversation on Facebook!

In this episode of Masters of Community, we speak with Sarah Jane Morris, Senior Manager, Developer Community at HubSpot. Our host, David Spinks, VP of Community at Bevy and Co-Founder of CMX, moderated the conversation. For the past fifteen years, Sarah has been growing and nurturing developer communities at various stages of growth, like Context IO, Keen IO, Shopify, Intel, and Mailchimp. Now, she leads Hubspot's broader developer community strategies. Today, Sarah shares what she's learned from working with these brands and the differences between the different kinds of developer communities that she's built. She also talks about how to get started in a community role, DEIB in building developer communities, and the balance of community capitalism. Who is this episode for? Community builders, community managers, community leaders, developers, and developers advocates. Timestamps: (00:49) - Intro to Sarah and her experience with developer communities (12:31) - Building a community from the ground up versus managing an existing one (16:55) - The difference between a developer community program and a developer advocacy program (19:06) - Setting up a healthy developer community based on context and the company (24:28) - How the developer community program at HubSpot stands out (28:18) - Why the community team should be the guiding light (35:00) - Auditing and improving a developer community program (48:33) - Working in a community in the world of capitalism (52:46) - Investing in DEIB in developer ecosystems (59:03) - Rapid-fire questions Notable Quotes: “The first question you need to ask is: does the developer community even make sense for this company?" “I feel like the community strategy is more about enabling developers to connect with each other, creating the spaces and clear pathways for that to happen. But, also understand what are the actions that you want to see developers taking in your community to get them more value and to bring more value back to the company.” “When the customer is the driver of the narrative, it's very hard to plug developers into that. But I think once you find that sweet spot and start to tell stories about how developers are impacting our customer's businesses, they love that too.” “I think community plays a big role in making things more equitable across the company because you're representing a good experience and a good journey for anyone in the community” Answers to rapid-fire questions: What's your favorite book to gift or recommend to others? The Business Value of Developer Relations by Mary Thengvall What's a community product you wish existed? Slack for communities. Who in the world of the community would you most like to take to lunch? Evan Hamilton, Director, Community and Customer Experience at Reddit What habit has had the most positive impact on your life? I think the habit of knowing when I'm done for maybe not the day, but at least for the hour. And just like slapping that laptop closed, stepping away, getting a break, drinking a glass of water. What's the weirdest community you've ever been a part of? So, I don't know if this is weird, but the way I kind of went about it was weird. So this is like 2002. I had been in love with pugs my whole life and I never had one. So I established the Montreal pug meetup group. What's one community engagement, tactic, or conversation starter that you like to use in your communities? “Where are you from?” If you could condense all of your life lessons into one Twitter-sized piece of advice to the rest of the world on how to live, what would that advice be? Care less about the things that you don't need to care about as much. Care about what matters because you only live once.
