Podcasts about DX

When it comes to your digital experience, how often does a ‘great idea' from a senior leader's gut feeling get completely dismantled by actual user data?Agility requires the willingness to be wrong and the systems to prove it quickly. It's about building a culture that values learning over being right and relentlessly iterates based on real human behavior, not internal assumptions. Today, we're going to talk about moving beyond ‘best practice' and intuition to build a truly data-driven digital experience. We'll explore how to create a disciplined conversion rate optimization program where usability testing, A/B experimentation, and personalization aren't just separate tactics, but a unified system, especially within a powerful platform like SitecoreAI, to build experiences that adapt to customer needs, not just our assumptions about them. To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, George Chang, Senior Director, Digital Experience & Technology Corporate Marketing at Hexagon AB.

GB2RS News Sunday, the 9th of November 2025   The news headlines: The RSGB launches its Construction Competition for 2026 RSGB exam shutdown over the festive season The Society appoints a new volunteer Brickworks Champion   Whether you have only recently soldered your first wire in a kit build or you have experience in designing an advanced software or systems engineering project, the RSGB Construction Competition is for you! As part of the RSGB's strategic growth priority, it wants to inspire people from different communities to find out more about amateur radio. That is why the Society has introduced a new category this year called “Reimagination”. If you think your project could be interesting to the maker community, or you have an idea that could encourage people from groups such as Men's Sheds to try amateur radio, this is the category for you. If it is radio-related but motivates non-radio amateurs to find out more, the RSGB welcomes your entry! There are six other categories, which means there really is something for everyone. You must be an RSGB member to enter, but you can live anywhere in the world, as entries will be judged online to allow you to participate and demonstrate your creativity remotely. The deadline for entries is the 1st of March 2026, and you have an opportunity to win a cash prize. For full details of the competition, including the other categories, visit rsgb.org/construction-competition If you're thinking of taking an amateur radio exam before Christmas, be aware that the last date you can take an online exam, either at a club or at home, is Monday, the 22nd of  December. The RSGB Exams Team will, where possible, post out exam results before HQ shuts over Christmas and New Year. Exams will resume on Monday, the 5th of January 2026 and the booking system will be available during the festive season, so you can book exams for January onwards. You can book your exam online at rsgb.org/exampay RSGB Board Director, Ben Lloyd, GW4BML, is delighted to announce Derek Hughes, G7LFC as the new volunteer RSGB Brickworks Champion. The Brickworks scheme consists of 23 tasks that give an insight into different aspects of amateur radio. Derek brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to this role, having previously been involved in the development and running of the Brickworks scheme. He currently serves as Chairman of the Quantum Amateur Radio & Technology Society. Derek is committed to building strong relationships with clubs across the UK, including those already engaged with RSGB initiatives. Individuals and clubs are encouraged to contact Derek via brickworks.champion@rsgb.org.uk  with their suggestions about how to develop the reach of the RSGB's Brickworks programme. Find out more about the programme by going to rsgb.org/brickworks The RSGB has continued to release content from its recent Convention. Watch the ‘Meet the Board' session and hear an update on the Society's strategy, as well as an outline of next steps and some important RSGB roles that need the right volunteers to step forward. These include four Board Directors and three Regional Representative vacancies, for which nominations open next week. An in-depth interview about polar modulation is also available to watch; listen to Hans Summers G0UPL, Mike Walker VA3MW and Stewart Bryant G3YSX sharing their thoughts about how this exciting technology is being applied within amateur radio. You can see both in the ‘RSGB 2025 Convention' playlist on the RSGB YouTube channel at youtube.com/theRSGB If you've been involved with Jamboree on the Air this year, the RSGB would love to hear from you. You have until this Thursday, the 13th, to submit your report and photos to radcom@rsgb.org.uk  and be included in the special JOTA feature in the January 2026 edition of RadCom. Essex CW Activity Week starts today, the 9th, and runs until Saturday, the 15th of November. This is a friendly, non-contest style event to encourage both experienced and new Morse operators. Slow-speed Morse operators are especially welcome. Whilst the aim is to contact as many radio amateurs as possible in a week, it is hoped that a QSO goes beyond just an exchange of signal reports and becomes a CW chat for as long a duration as you wish. Anyone who works at least 25 other stations qualifies for a free award certificate. Lots more information, including preferred operating frequencies, can be found via the ‘Activity Week' tab at essexcw.uk Please send details of all your news and events to radcom@rsgb.org.uk.

Earlier in the week, the 10m band was working very well, with Australia romping into the UK by mid-morning. But later in the week, everything had changed. Solar activity was high with multiple X-class and strong M-class solar flares. At least three coronal mass ejections, or CMEs, were expected to graze or directly hit Earth, sparking strong geomagnetic storms on the 6th and 7th of November. The X-ray flare on the 4th of November was the first seen since June and came from active region 4274 – a large sunspot group which helped push the solar flux index to 147. The Kp index climbed to 6.67 in the early hours of the 6th of November. Later that morning, maximum usable frequencies, or MUFs, were badly affected, with a maximum of 18MHz over a 3,000km path as a strong G3 geomagnetic storm was in progress. So, it looks like good DX on the higher bands may be off the cards for a few days. However, one interesting contact was noted on the CDXC Slack chat group when ZL7/LZIGCC was spotted on 14.005MHz using CW at 10.30 am on Thursday, the 6th. Interestingly, the current solar activity is nearly all in the Sun's northern hemisphere, so are we heading for a second peak in Cycle 25? Next week, NOAA predicts that the solar flux index may decline to the 130 to 145 range. Geomagnetic conditions are predicted to remain unstable until around the 12th of November. With active region 4274 rotating to be more Earth-facing, we may expect more solar activity, such as solar flares and coronal mass ejections, before things quieten down. And now the VHF and up propagation news from G3YLA and G4BAO We are becoming well acquainted with mild, unsettled weather, and as a result, there were plenty of rain scatter options on the GHz bands in the last week. These are likely to continue through the coming week. Tropo is not completely out of the frame in the extreme south and east, albeit fleetingly, but for most of the UK, it is unlikely to be a strong feature. As in recent weeks, a few auroral alerts are coming through, but so far, nothing too dramatic is showing up on the VHF bands. Meteor scatter looks more interesting as we move into mid-November. The Leonids, one of the more important meteor showers in the calendar, peaks just after next weekend on Monday the 17th and Tuesday the 18th, so we should expect to see some increasing activity as we progress through the coming week. The UK Activity Contest events feature 432MHz on Tuesday 11th, when the eastern side of the UK may have one of the fleeting moments of tropo to the east and south. Later in the week, on Thursday the 13th, it's the turn of 50MHz. Conditions look weaker for tropo for the 50MHz UK Activity Contest, but still favour the extreme east of England, if there is any left by then. Meteor scatter or even aurora might come to the rescue for this one. For EME operators, the Moon's declination is at its highest this weekend, ending today, the 9th, so Moon window lengths and peak elevation are also at their greatest. Path losses are now increasing as we passed perigee on the 5th of November. 144MHz sky noise is low and at its lowest midweek. And that's all from the propagation team this week.

  Every software team, no matter its size or sophistication, has wrestled with the same quiet threat, technical debt. But what if the issue isn't just messy code or outdated frameworks, but something more human? That's the question Ernesto Tagwerker, Founder and CEO of OmbuLabs.ai, has been asking as he works at the intersection of AI, developer experience, and legacy modernization. In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, Ernesto joins me from Philadelphia to unpack why technical debt is so misunderstood and why the term has drifted far from Ward Cunningham's original metaphor. He argues that many teams treat it as a one-off cleanup task when, in reality, it's a living health issue that must be managed continuously. As he explains, "Every time you have to work around messy code, you're paying interest. And if later never comes, that interest piles up until progress grinds to a halt." We explore how AI is changing the way engineers think about remediation and developer experience (DX). Ernesto shares how OmbuLabs.ai uses AI agents to automate parts of the Rails upgrade process, scanning codebases for deprecations and generating actionable plans for clients. But his caution is clear, these tools are only as smart as the people orchestrating them. When used carelessly, they can generate invisible layers of new debt just as fast as they resolve the old. Ernesto also reflects on research from Google that reveals how "technical debt" varies wildly between teams and projects. He explains why leadership alignment is vital, how recurring surveys can help identify developer pain points, and why organizations should measure "technical health" rather than chase the unrealistic goal of zero debt. We discuss the cultural shift required for long-term success and why allocating even 10 to 20 percent of each sprint to DX improvements can dramatically reduce burnout and turnover. Finally, Ernesto offers his take on the future. AI will continue to automate repetitive work and surface smarter insights, but human oversight remains non-negotiable. In his words, "AI agents are only as good as their human operator." This conversation goes beyond code reviews and sprint retrospectives. It's about redefining what progress means in software development, healthier systems, happier developers, and smarter collaboration between humans and machines. Listen now to hear how Ernesto Tagwerker and OmbuLabs.ai are rethinking technical debt, DX, and AI-driven engineering for the decade ahead.   Tech Talks Daily is Sponsored by NordLayer: Get the exclusive Black Friday offer: 28% off NordLayer yearly plans with the coupon code: techdaily-28.

Che cosa rende davvero produttivo un team di sviluppo? Non solo skill tecniche o organigrammi: è la Developer Experience (DX), l'insieme di strumenti, processi e cultura che determina come gli sviluppatori pensano, creano e rilasciano valore. In questo video ti mostro perché la DX è la leva più sottovalutata per performance, benessere e retention, e come l'AI sta ridisegnando l'equilibrio tra velocità e qualità. Parliamo di:- I 4 pilastri della DX,- Come misurarla senza fuffa,- Quick wins tecnici e culturali che puoi implementare subito,- Il ruolo del CTO,- 3 casi studio (Spotify/Backstage, GitHub/Copilot, PMI italiana con +30% produttività). Se guidi team tech, qui trovi un framework pratico per ridurre attriti, aumentare focus e trasformare la DX in vantaggio competitivo.Vuoi farmi una domanda su questo o altri temi?

Comenzamos... con una mala noticia que nos llega desde Alemania, donde se anuncia que a partir del próximo 31 de diciembre finalizan las emisiones del transmisor de Kall-Krekelm situado al sur de Renania del Norte-Westfalia. Dicho transmisor es utilizado por RADIO ESLOVAQUIA INTERNACIONAL con transmisiones en diferentes idiomas como alemán, inglés, francés y por supuesto español; siempre dirigidos hacia Europa por las frecuencias de 3.985 y 6.005. Según informa el operador, el cierre se debe al aumento de los costes de la licencia de onda corta que ha pasado de 1.500 euros por década a 4.000. Este es el nuevo esquema en español de RADIO TAIWAN INTERNACIONAL, de 01.00 a 01.30 en 17.790 hacia América del Sur; de 02.00 a 02.30 en 5.010 hacia América Central y de 22.00 a 22.30 en dirección a España por los 15.770. Los informes de recepción se pueden enviar al siguiente correo: esp@rti.org.tw Y desde Suecia, en la reunión anual de la SDXF-FEDERACIÓN SUECA DE DX, se aprobó una moción para enviar una carta al Parlamento Sueco solicitando la restauración de las emisiones de RADIO SUECIA INTERNACIONAL tanto en onda media como corta. La carta ya ha sido enviada a todos los partidos del parlamento, a los miembros y diputados de la Comisión de Cultura, a los cuatro ministros involucrados, así como a la junta directiva de Radio Suecia y a diferentes periódicos. Recordemos que actualmente Radio Suecia Internacional sólo se puede escuchar vía internet. Terminamos con RADIO EXTERIOR DE ESPAÑA, pues cuenta con el siguiente esquema de emisiones: De martes a sábado desde las 00.00 hasta las 03.00 por las frecuencias de 9.690 y 17.715 en dirección a América del Norte y Sur; los sábados y domingos de 15.00 a 24.00 en 9.690, 12.030, 17.715 y 17.755 en dirección a América del Norte y Sur, África Oeste, Atlántico Sur, Indico y Oriente medio; de lunes a viernes desde las 16.00 a las 24.00 en 12.030 y 17.755 hacia África Oeste, Atlántico Sur, Indico y Oriente Medio; y por último también de lunes a viernes hacia América del Norte y Sur por las frecuencias de 9.690 y 17.715. En último lugar, no olviden que pueden oír y leer este informe en radio.aer.org.es, además todos sus programas diexistas favoritos están en la web programasdx.com, donde hay un total de 10 programas disponibles. Y, como no, nos pueden escribirnos a la cuenta correo@aer.org.es, desde nuestra web aer.org.es así como desde nuestro perfil en Facebook. ¡Hasta la próxima, muchos 73s y buenos DX!

Hello and Welcome to the DX Corner for yourweekly Dose of DX. I'm Bill, AJ8B.Each week I try to focus on those entities that will be available in the next 7 days. There is so much data to sift through that I thought a focus on the next week might be helpful. Here is what you should find QRV when you tune the bands. The following DX information comes from Bernie, W3UR, editor of the DailyDX, the WeeklyDX, and the How's DX column in QST. If you would like a free 2-week trial of the DailyDX, your only source of real-time DX information, justdrop me a note at thedxmentor@gmail.comWe have a 6O3T - Somalia Update -   “Good morning, everyone, we'd like to thank you all for the affection and patience you've shown towards our 6O operation. Despite the high noise level, we're moving forward with great personal satisfaction, sometimes at the expense of the usual CW/SSB modes, but often it's a necessary choice. We're enjoying good openings on the 6 meters band toward Europe, around 11:00 GMT, with a few shorter ones toward Asia as well. In the afternoon, around 15:00 GMT, the SIX band will open again. We've been transmitting for the second night in a row on 80 and have logged several nice QSOs. In the coming days, we'll likely make some tests on 160m, though without too many expectations.Finally, we've been receiving many emails about call corrections and typing errors, our apologies, but this is not the right time. All such requests will be handled once we're back home.” ThebPJ6Y Adventure is QRTAfter an amazing weekend participating inbCQWW SSB 2025, the PJ6Y adventure is coming to a close. Our Young Operators team achieved an incredible milestone — over 55,000 QSOs! “On behalf of the PJ6Y 2025 team, I would like to thank all of you who took the time to work us,” said Gregg, W6IZT. A special thanks goes out to our sponsors and supporters — this expedition would not have been possible without your generous help and encouragement. 5R, MADAGASCAR The Italian Dxpedition Team led by Silvano, I2YSB announce a new activity from Madagascar until November 12 as 5R8TT utilizing CW, SSB, and RTTY and as 5R8XX on FT8. A team will be operating with 4 stations from 160 to 6 meters. QSL via I2YSB. https://www.i2ysb.com/idt/ 9L, SIERRA LEONE  The ex-3C2MD managed to plan another DXPedition as 9L8MD until November 10.

Fabien shares why the company moved from broad rollouts to small, focused cohorts, how they are addressing existing PR review bottlenecks that AI has intensified, and what they have learned from empowering product managers and designers to use AI tools directly.He also offers insights into budgeting and experimentation, the results Monzo is seeing from AI-assisted engineering, and his outlook on what comes next, from agent orchestration to more seamless collaboration across roles.Where to find Fabien Deshayes: • LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/fabiendeshayesWhere to find Laura Tacho: • LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lauratacho/• X: https://x.com/rhein_wein• Website: https://lauratacho.com/• Laura's course (Measuring Engineering Performance and AI Impact): https://lauratacho.com/developer-productivity-metrics-courseIn this episode, we cover:(00:00) Intro  (01:01) An overview of Monzo bank and Fabien's role  (02:05) Monzo's careful, structured approach to AI experimentation  (05:30) How Monzo's AI journey began  (06:26) Why Monzo chose a structured approach to experimentation and what criteria they used  (09:21) How Monzo selected AI tools for experimentation  (11:51) Why individual tool stipends don't work for large, regulated organizations  (15:32) How Monzo measures the impact of AI tools and uses the data  (18:10) Why Monzo limits AI tool trials to small, focused cohorts  (20:54) The phases of Monzo's AI rollout and how learnings are shared across the organization  (22:43) What Monzo's data reveals about AI usage and spending  (24:30) How Monzo balances AI budgeting with innovation  (26:45) Results from DX's spending poll and general advice on AI budgeting  (28:03) What Monzo's data shows about AI's impact on engineering performance  (29:50) The growing bottleneck in PR reviews and how Monzo is solving it with tenancies  (33:54) How product managers and designers are using AI at Monzo  (36:36) Fabien's advice for moving the needle with AI adoption  (38:42) The biggest changes coming next in AI engineering Referenced:Monzo The Go Programming LanguageSwift.orgKotlinGitHub Copilot in VS Code CursorWindsurfClaude CodePlanning your 2026 AI tooling budget: guidance for engineering leaders

GB2RS News Sunday, the 2nd of November 2025   The news headlines: The RSGB National Radio Centre wins the 2025 Sir Arthur Clarke Education and Outreach Team Award The RSGB releases two panel discussions from its recent Convention Learn how to improve speech clarity with DSP in November's Tonight@8 At a glittering awards ceremony in London this week, the RSGB National Radio Centre team beat two other finalists to win the 2025 Sir Arthur Clarke Education and Outreach Team Award. The NRC team was recognised “For inspiring all Generations about Amateur Satellites by providing a unique insight into the world of radio communications”. The awards are organised by the British Interplanetary Society. The award was accepted by RSGB General Manager Steve Thomas, M1ACB; NRC Coordinator Martyn Baker, G0GMB; and NRC Volunteers Patrick Wood, 2E0IFB and Brian Hardy, G4BIP. In his acceptance speech, Steve Thomas thanked Martyn and the 65 volunteers for the work that they do in welcoming over 80,000 visitors to the NRC each year. He also said that through the Society's public outreach and STEM activities, it aims to help generate and support future RF engineers who may one day work in the space or related industries. Congratulations to the whole NRC team for this fantastic recognition of the great work you do! Have you ever considered how to engage more girls and women with amateur radio? This question was discussed by a panel of female radio amateurs at the RSGB Convention last month. The group touched on topics including accessibility to in-person activities, support and encouragement, as well as the potential obstacles to attracting more women into amateur radio. The discussion is now available to watch in the RSGB 2025 Convention playlist on the RSGB's YouTube channel via youtube.com/thersgb, and it would be great to use for a club night to start conversations and to help inspire new plans. You can also see the “How to encourage thriving clubs” panel discussion in the same playlist, where four clubs shared the activities that are helping them to gain members. Don't forget to subscribe to the channel to be the first to hear about new videos when they are released. Tomorrow, the 3rd of November, join Graham Somerville, M3ZGS, owner and managing director of DSP noise cancellation specialists bhi Ltd, for November's Tonight@8 webinar. The presentation will give viewers an insight into how to improve speech clarity with Digital Signal Processing technology and which products are best suited to specific applications and setups. Graham will also explain how noise-cancelling will help those with hearing loss to enjoy amateur radio more. You can join the webinar and ask questions via the live chat on both the RSGB YouTube channel and special BATC channel.

Now the radio propagation report, compiled by G0KYA, G3YLA and G4BAO on Thursday the 30th of October Last weekend saw HF shine as stations took part in the CQ World Wide SSB Contest. Geomagnetic conditions remained settled and DX was plentiful, with contacts possible as far afield as Alaska to the west and China to the east. Given the unsettled conditions we have had recently, it was a welcome break as radio amateurs filled their logs with far-flung DX. As we enter November, we can still expect the fine autumnal conditions that made October so good. However, as the month progresses, we can also anticipate improvements in LF band DX. So keep an eye on the 80 and 40m bands. The solar flux index has declined somewhat and is now standing at 118. This is still enough to get the 10m band humming, but it is a far cry from the 200-plus we saw at sunspot maximum. Nevertheless, get on the bands and work the DX while you can. Two large coronal holes, one in the Sun's northern hemisphere and one in the southern hemisphere, have been the sources of a fast solar wind stream. We may expect more geomagnetic disturbances today, the 2nd. Also, active region 4246 is now coming around the Sun's limb again and could be worth keeping an eye on. It has been emitting solar flares while behind the Sun, so look out for more activity upon its return. For the coming week, NOAA predicts that the solar flux index could increase, perhaps starting the week at around 135 and increasing to 150 by the 9th of November. The first half of the week should be quiet geomagnetically, but we may expect more unsettled geomagnetic conditions around the 7th to the 9th of November, when the Kp index could increase to 5. Expect maximum usable frequencies to be depressed until the Kp index recovers. And now the VHF and up propagation news from G3YLA and G4BAO The current spell of unsettled weather remains the focus for the foreseeable future. Previous model runs had suggested the possibility of high pressure returning by the end of the coming week, but this is no longer the case. The RSGB 144MHz CW Marconi Contest, which ends at 1400UTC today, the 2nd, looks to be under the influence of low pressure rather than any tropo-producing highs. With the unsettled pattern continuing, the optional modes might be rain scatter for the GHz bands, but not tropo. The chances of aurora are there, and after a very auroral-sounding 40m band on Wednesday, the 29th of October, when the Kp index hit 4, we should remain alert to changed conditions on the high HF and VHF bands. However, it probably needs something higher, like a Kp index between 5 and 7, before getting excited about radio effects.  The meteor scatter options look reasonable as we move into November, but the next important shower, the Leonids, doesn't peak until the 17th. We do, however, enter the edge of the stream later in the coming week. A final note of caution is that this unsettled type of weather pattern can produce rapidly developing lows and bring damaging winds to some parts of the country. So, take the opportunity on the quieter days to check that antennas are secure. For EME operators, the Moon's declination is negative and rising, going positive today, the 2nd of November. So, Moon window lengths and peak elevation are both rising.

Businesses are spending millions on AI tools hoping to accelerate time-to-market but aren't seeing organizational-level results. Laura Tacho (CTO @ DX) explains why an "individual productivity" mindset fails and how AI merely accelerates the condition of the system it enters. She provides a framework for leaders to shift to a systems-level approach, find high-leverage ROI by looking outside the 20% of time spent coding, and understand what sets high-ROI orgs apart. Plus Laura shares data literacy tools to cut through the "whiplash" of conflicting AI reports and provides key considerations for 2026 budgeting, detailing where and how companies are planning to strategically invest.ABOUT LAURA TACHOLaura Tacho is CTO at DX, a developer experience company. She previously led teams at companies like CloudBees, Aula Education, and Nova Credit. She's an expert in building world-class engineering organisations that consistently deliver outstanding results. Laura has coached CTOs and other engineering leaders from startups to the Fortune 500, and also facilitates a popular course on metrics and engineering team performance.SHOW NOTES:Downsides to approaching organizational outcomes from an individual task level (2:59)Why individual product gains don't always equate to systems-level improvements (4:56)How the quality of existing systems impacts the improvements AI can foster (7:26)Strategies for shifting mental models from the individual to systems level (9:09)Implement training & enablement techniques as an organizational lever (11:22)Common workflows that can unlock new problem-solving methods (14:46)Understanding what impact you want to see / getting the most ROI from AI (18:40)How to interpret the data when it comes to AI & its true ROI (21:22)AI data literacy for engineering leaders (23:06)Interpreting the meter study & what it means for engineers using AI (25:49)Quality vs. quantity when it comes to AI implementation on the org level (28:43)Characteristics that high-ROI companies possess when it comes to AI (30:35)Strategies to invest in that may lead to higher ROI (32:29)Laura's observations on time & money budgeting / investments for 2026 (35:28)Embracing cost savings & opportunity generation as an eng org (38:08)Tackling fear / uncertainty when it comes to AI adoption, budgeting, & ROI (40:01)LINKS AND RESOURCESPrevious Episode with Laura TachoIntroducing the AI Measurement Framework from DXAtlassian State of DevEx ReportMETR StudyDORA Report (2025)This episode wouldn't have been possible without the help of our incredible production team:Patrick Gallagher - Producer & Co-HostJerry Li - Co-HostNoah Olberding - Associate Producer, Audio & Video Editor https://www.linkedin.com/in/noah-olberding/Dan Overheim - Audio Engineer, Dan's also an avid 3D printer - https://www.bnd3d.com/Ellie Coggins Angus - Copywriter, Check out her other work at https://elliecoggins.com/about/ Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Nicole Forsgren created the most widely used frameworks for measuring developer productivity—DORA and SPACE. She wrote the foundational book Accelerate and is about to release her newest book, Frictionless, a practical guide for helping teams move faster in the AI era. She's currently Senior Director of Developer Intelligence at Google.We discuss:1. Why most productivity metrics are a lie2. Signs that your engineering team could be moving much faster3. Why AI accelerates coding but developers aren't speeding up as much as you think4. AI's impact on engineers getting into “flow”5. Her framework for building and scaling a developer experience team6.

In this short podcast episode, Bryan talks about history and HVAC science: how to dehumidify the air with a waterfall and how cold water became the first air conditioner. In 1902, Willis Carrier worked for a printing company in Brooklyn, New York. There was a huge humidity problem during the summer: the printing plant got damp, causing paper to swell and ink to smudge. Carrier realized that he could wring water out of the air if he brought the air's temperature below the dew point. His solution was to spray chilled water into the airstream; he filed a patent for an invention that would pass air through a mist of cool water, which caused it to cool down and shed its moisture. He called it the "apparatus for treating air." This invention applies basic psychrometric principles. Air holds water vapor up to a certain point. The dew point defines that point. If the air is full of water vapor and its temperature drops below that dew point, excess water vapor condenses to liquid water (such as when it passes over an evaporator coil). In the case of Carrier's invention, the cold water in the spray chamber acted as a giant cooling coil. However, if the water is warm, the opposite effect would happen. We do NOT dehumidify with liquid water due to the requirement for water treatment (to prevent algae and scale buildup). Cold water is less prone to bacterial and algal growth than warm water, but it's still essentially an indoor science experiment. Water is also messy and causes corrosion, and pumping it is expensive. Carrier's experiment evolved to the chilled water coil, which then evolved to the DX coils we see today.     Have a question that you want us to answer on the podcast?

“Engineering leaders are stuck between the expectations put out by sensational headlines and the reality of what they're seeing in their organization. There's a big disappointment gap.”Is your AI investment paying off? Many leaders struggle to see real ROI beyond the hype.In this episode, Laura Tacho, CTO of DX, shares DX's new research on measuring AI adoption success across 38,000+ engineers. Our conversation reveals why acceptance rates are misleading metrics and introduces DX's new AI Measurement Framework™ with its three critical dimensions: utilization, impact, and cost. Learn why treating AI as an organizational problem closes the “disappointment gap” between hype and reality.Note: This episode was recorded in July 2025. The AI adoption rate mentioned has since risen to nearly 80%.In this episode, you will learn about:The “Disappointment Gap” between AI hype and realityWhy the popular “acceptance rate” metric is misleadingThe DX AI Measurement Framework™ and its three dimensionsThe top time-saving AI use case (it's not code generation!)How AI impacts long-term software quality and maintainabilityWhy organizational readiness matters for successful AI adoptionThe bigger bottlenecks beyond coding that AI has not yet solvedTreating AI agents as team extensions, not digital employeesTimestamps:(00:00:00) Trailer & Intro(00:02:32) Latest DX Research on AI Adoption(00:03:54) AI Role on Developer Experience(00:05:43) The Current AI Adoption Rate in the Industry(00:09:27) The Leader's Challenges Against Al Hype(00:13:22) Measuring AI Adoption ROI Using Acceptance Rate(00:17:39) The DX AI Measurement Framework™(00:23:05) AI Measurement Framework: Utility Dimension(00:27:51) DX AI Code Metrics(00:30:31) AI Measurement Framework: Impact Dimension(00:32:57) The Importance of Measuring Productivity Holistically(00:35:54) AI Measurement Framework: Cost Dimension(00:38:34) AI Second Order Impact on Software Quality and Maintainability(00:42:38) The Danger of Vibe Coding(00:46:31) Treating AI as Extensions of Teams(00:52:31) The Bigger Bottlenecks to Solve Outside of AI Adoption(00:55:47) DX Guide to AI-Assisted Engineering(01:00:38) Being Deliberate for a Successful AI Rollout(01:02:32) 3 Tech Lead Wisdom_____Laura Tacho's BioLaura Tacho is CTO at DX, a developer intelligence platform, co-author of the Core 4 developer productivity metrics framework, and an executive coach.

It's been 10 years since the start of Community Pulse and, appropriately enough, we've reached the milestone of 100 episodes. To celebrate, we invited Jono Bacon -- our very first guest on the show -- and SJ Morris -- a former host of the show -- to join us and reminisce about changes in the DevRel industry as well as how we've changed personally and professionally over the last 10 years. We'll laugh a little… cry a little… and as always, learn a lot along the way.

Welcome to episode 323 of The Cloud Pod, where the forecast is always cloudy! Justin, Matt and Ryan are in the studio tonight to bring you all the latest in cloud and AI news! This week we have a close call from Entra, some DeepSeek news, Firestore, and even an acquisition! Make sure to stay tuned for the aftershow – and Matt obviously falling asleep on the job.

The course focuses on building autonomous AI agents and multi-agent systems, which represents a shift from traditional single-model AI to systems that can independently perform tasks, make decisions, and interact with tools and APIs. This development signals growing enterprise interest in AI agents for cloud environments, where autonomous systems can manage infrastructure, optimize resources, and handle complex workflows without constant human intervention. The hands-on approach includes codelabs and a capstone project, indicating Google’s push to democratize agent development skills as businesses increasingly need engineers who can build production-ready autonomous systems. The timing aligns with major cloud providers racing to offer agent-based services, as AI agents become essential for automating cloud operations, customer service, and business processes at scale.

Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver dive into one of the wildest episodes yet, bouncing between heavy real-world events and the equally unpredictable world of pro wrestling. From conversations about recent political violence to riffs on pop culture, the guys bring the same blunt honesty that makes this show stand out. Kev even explains shooting mechanics by comparing it to, of all things, jerking off – proving again that no one else delivers commentary quite like him. Health and personal stories also take center stage. Sean shares updates on his blood work and sleep apnea struggles, while Kevin talks openly about nuclear stress tests, sleep studies, and how genetics shape his health journey. These moments bring a mix of vulnerability and humor, showing Nash's ability to cut through the noise with practical wisdom while still landing sharp one-liners. The wrestling business isn't spared either. Kev weighs in on AJ Lee chants, Becky Lynch promos, and why WWE's current product struggles with believability. From LA Knight's presentation to Bayley's Twilight Zone-style promo, Nash offers a veteran's eye for detail that most fans never get to hear. His critique of commentary and production choices underscores his belief that pro wrestling works best when audio, visuals, and psychology all align. Pop culture and history add another layer. The JFK assassination, 9/11 conspiracies, and Cold War intrigue all make their way into the discussion, with Nash questioning official narratives and drawing parallels to today's climate. Sean plays the role of everyman, tossing out questions that let Kev open up about how he sees the bigger picture – whether it's politics, foreign policy, or wrestling angles. All of it adds up to a podcast that is raw, unfiltered, and never afraid to zig where others zag. “The CRAZY world of Pro Wrestling” isn't just about matches and promos – it's about how wrestling, politics, culture, and life collide. Whether you're here for the behind-the-scenes wrestling insight, the off-the-wall tangents, or the sharp political takes, this episode is a ride only Nash and Oliver can provide.

Stainless founder Alex Rattray joins a16z partner Jennifer Li to talk about the future of APIs, SDKs, and the rise of MCP (Model Context Protocol). Drawing on his experience at Stripe—where he helped redesign API docs and built code-generation systems—Alex explains why the SDK is the API for most developers, and why high-quality, idiomatic libraries are essential not just for humans, but now for AI agents as well.They dive into:The evolution of SDK generation and lessons from building at scale inside Stripe.Why MCP reframes APIs as interfaces for large language models.The challenges of designing tools and docs for both developers and AI agents.How context limits, dynamic tool generation, and documentation shape agent usability.The future of developer platforms in an era where “every company is an API company.”Timecodes: 0:00 – Introduction: APIs as the Dendrites of the Internet1:49 – Building API Platforms: Lessons from Stripe3:03 – SDKs: The Developer's Interface6:16 – The MCP Model: APIs for AI Agents9:23 – Designing for LLMs and AI Users13:08 – Solving Context Window Challenges16:57 – The Importance of Strongly Typed SDKs21:07 – The Future of API and Agent Experience24:45 – Lessons from Leading API Companies26:14 – Outro and DisclaimersResources: Find Alex on X: https://x.com/rattrayalexFind Jennifer on X: https://x.com/JenniferHliStay Updated: Let us know what you think: https://ratethispodcast.com/a16zFind a16z on Twitter: https://twitter.com/a16zFind a16z on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/a16zSubscribe on your favorite podcast app: https://a16z.simplecast.com/Follow our host: https://x.com/eriktorenbergPlease note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.
