How developer platforms fail (and how yours won't) with Russ Miles

Russ Miles joins the show to unpack why developer platforms fail and how to rethink platform engineering through the lens of flow of value rather than factory-style developer productivity metaphors. Russ explains why every organization already has an internal developer platform, and why treating it as platform as a product changes everything. The conversation explores cognitive load and cognitive burden, how to design around strong feedback loops, and why the OODA loop mindset helps teams make better decisions closer to development time. They discuss the risks of overloading pipelines and CI/CD systems, the tension between shipping fast and handling security vulnerabilities in a regulated environment, and how to “shift left” without simply dumping responsibility onto developers. Drawing on lessons from Rod Johnson, the Spring Framework, TDD, and modern software engineering as described by Dave Farley, Russ reframes platforms as systems that support experimentation through the scientific method. The episode also touches on AI assisted coding, developer focus, and how thoughtful developer experience and DX surveys can prevent burnout while improving value delivery.

We have two operations from J5 - Guinea-BissauFirst - DA1DX, Ben, the organizer of the J51A DXpedition to Guinea-Bissau in February/March 2026, shares several updates. The ARRL has approved the J51A license for DXCC, and the LoTW certificate has been received. After clarifying frequency and mode permissions with the national authority and confirming alignment with IARU Region 1 Band Plans, all standard bands and modes-including 160m, 60m, WARC bands, and 50 MHz-are confirmed valid for DXCC, IOTA, and other awards. The DXpedition is entirely privately funded, with RF-POWER lending five amplifiers and all other equipment privately owned. Ben invites donations via Club Log OQRS and provides a link for more information. https://www.qrz.com/db/J51A Secondly, J52EC is on until February 28th by operator IZ3BUR, Livio. He has an IC-7410, 100 watts, to a 3-element Yagi on 20, 15 and 10.TL - Central African Republic & TT – Chad - TJ1GD, Darek, has established permanent amateur radio stations in the Central African Republic and in Chad, which are maintained locally. These stations (TL8GD and TT1GD), licensed to Darek, operate periodically-often remotely using FT8, CW, and SSB. QSL confirmations are available via LoTW and Club Log.KP5/NP3VI, Desecheo Island - KP5/NP3VI is now 2 weeks into its planned 30-day operation. Their latest published statistics are as follows: Over 55,000 QSOs are in the log, with 91.1 percent of the QSOs with North American and Europe. CN - Morocco - F6FYD, Yannick, expects to return to Morocco next week. In early March he also has plans to go to Mogador Island (AF-065), Agadir, and El Jadida and has the callsign CN2YD.FG – Guadeloupe - TF1OL, Olafur, will be live from Guadeloupe starting Wednesday next week for approximately seven days. No word on what callsign he will be using. Following the stay in Guadeloupe, plans to visit other islands are pending permission to operate.TZ - Mali - The next TZ1CE by DK1CE, Ulmar, is February 10 to March 1. He will be doing mostly FT8 and SSB and says when he's on FT8 he gives stations outside Europe precedent at all times. He plans special attention to 160M FT8, 80M FT8 and 6M and will update daily on Club Log, the LoTW log will be after the operation, and in Mali 60M operation is not allowed.FG - Guadeloupe - FG/F6HMQ, Tildas, and FG/F6GWV, Mike, are there for another week or so, with a pair of IC-7300 radios, to vertical wires. "Holiday style," they are 60-10M SSB, FT4 and FT8. LoTW confirmations will be available within a few days. YU – Serbia - This year is the 170th anniversary of Nikola Tesla's birth. Stations in the Amateur Radio Union of Serbia are authorized to use callsign YT170TESLA through the end of this year.XU - Cambodia - DL7BO, Tom, will once again be QRV as XU7O from February 7-21, reports DX News.S9 - Sao Tome & Principe – S53BV is QRV as S9BV until February 20, holiday style "from a quiet location," Borut, will be on with an IC-7000 to verticals and dipoles. He plans to be on 60, 40, 30 and 15 CW and SSB. On 30, 40 and 60M CW, target frequencies are 10110, 7005 and 5351.5. Direct QSLs will be answered when he's back home. Club Log OQRS will be available, with limited internet access while there and "postal challenges." He will apparently give special instructions later.Until next week, this is Bill, AJ8B saying 73 and thanks to my XYL Karen for her love and support. I Hope to hear you in the pileups! Have a great DX week!

Hi. Thanks for joining the Darling Downs Radio Club QNEWS segment - it's most likely Sunday, 8 Feb, and I am very pleased to be back in the land of the living. Tomorrow night, Monday 9 February, is the first of our member and tech meetings for the new year, and the topic is tada antennas. You can join us in person or by telepresence, and if you do, it's going to be just like being in the room with the rest of us... Although people in the room get tea, coffee and tam-tams, because we're that sort of group. Antennas are a very broad topic, with lots to know, lots to learn, and lots to swap. Tomorrow night, we'll do all of that, using a discussion format where we want to know what's worked for you, and what hasn't. Along the way, we will investigate verticals and beams, matching, DX and local, transmitting and receiving, and both well-known and more obscure options. Club member Bob VK4ZOW has been playing with yagis using the bent driven element, and has tales of amazing DX using yagis from two elements up. There's a bit about that on our website in the invitation to the meeting, and it's worth a read. One discussion I'm looking forward to hearing: what are the recommendations for a decently working antenna that can be installed on a suburban block? That's increasingly important as some of us transition from the family home to community living, where a tower might not fit. Bring along your experience, your trials, tribulations and failures, and we'll have a great discussion. That's at the District Scouts HQ in Newtown, Toowoomba... 10 Victory Street. All the details are on the website, so easy to find. The meeting will start at 1900 AEST to give us time for a bit of a club update; we've been pretty busy over the break, as regular listeners will know. Things are going well, and there are a heap of questions that we'd like to ask you, so we can shape what's coming up this year. We're scheduling several projects, and now is the time to open discussions for the Club's entry in the John Moyle Field Day, only six weeks away on March 21. If you're listening to this and you're not a member, then a reminder that the discount rate is 50% off right now - that's for all memberships - so full individual is only $20 right now. Pensioner, student and youth memberships are even less. And the family membership is also discounted. Before I go, have you been following the HamChallenge? Details are on our website, or you can go directly to hamchallenge.org. This is week six, with a very curious challenge to whistle a digi or CW QSO. In case that sounds too hard, there is a very big hint on how you could make either of those modes possible. And like travelling to Melbourne, getting there is half the fun. Amateur radio is about experimenting and discovery, which is what the Ham Challenge is designed to encourage. We think it's a pretty cool program. So all that again: tech and member meeting tomorrow evening from 1900 AEST - and everyone is welcome whether in person or remotely informal lunch on Sunday 22 Feb put 21 March in your diary and plan to join us and help with the John Moyle Memorial Field Day, and there's no better use for $20 right now than a quick press of the "join" button on the website. The website is at ddrci.org.au, and if anything is weird we're listening via the contact form, or secretary@ddrci.org.au. I'm probably not going to be able to reply if you try to get me via whistling DIGI or CW, but it's worth a go. Who knows? The Club 2m net follows at 1000 eastern on the club repeater VK4RDD. Thanks for listening. I'm John VK4JPM and how about I see you tomorrow night? 73.

What if you could keep Rails pages fast, accessible, and SEO‑friendly, yet still get modern interactivity without shipping a mountain of JavaScript? We sit down with Cameron Dutro to unpack Live Component, a server‑first approach that breathes life into ViewComponent by treating state as data, rendering on the server, and morphing the DOM with Hotwire. No fragile ID wiring. No React by default. Just clear state, small payloads, and focused updates.We trace the path that led here: experiments rendering Ruby in the browser with Ruby.wasm, Opal, and even a TypeScript Ruby interpreter, and why those payloads and debugging pain pushed the work back to the server. Cameron explains the Live Component mental model—initializer‑defined state, slots, and a sidecar Stimulus controller—plus how targeted re‑renders make forms and micro‑interactions feel instant. We talk transports (HTTP vs WebSockets), serialization best practices for Active Record data, and where React still shines for high‑intensity builders and editors.Beyond the code, we dig into the bigger web story: how DX‑first choices often punish users on slower devices and networks, and why a balanced, server‑driven approach can close that gap. You'll hear real‑world tradeoffs, debugging techniques that feel like home to Rails devs, and a clever fix born from a Snake game that surfaced timing issues and led to a preempt option for queued renders. If your team wants dynamic islands without adopting a full SPA, this conversation offers a practical roadmap.Explore Live Component at livecomponent.org and the GitHub org at github.com/livecomponent.

Hola, sean bienvenidos al informe mensual de la AER, de la Asociación Española de Radioescucha. Antes de las noticias, indicamos que las frecuencias se dan en kilohercios mientras que las horas son UTC, es decir, están referidas al Tiempo Universal Coordinado. Además, deletrearemos algunos direcciones usando el alfabeto internacional de deletreo. Comenzamos con ENCORE TUMBRIL, una emisora europea de onda corta con un programa de una hora de música clásica tiene el siguiente esquema: A las 01.00 los domingos en 5.850 vía WRMI hacia América del Norte; a las 02.00 los viernes en 5.850 vía WRMI hacia América del Norte; a las 03.00 en 5.950 los lunes vía WRMI hacia América del Norte; a las 11.00 los sábados en 9.670 vía Channel 292 hacia Europa; a las 13.00 los jueves vía WRMI en 15.770 hacia Europa, Este de EEUU e Islandia; a las 18.00 los domingos en 3.955 vía Channel 292 hacia Europa; y por último, a las 20.00 los viernes en 15.770 vía WRMI hacia Europa. Se agradecen los informes en el siguiente correo: encoretumbril@gmail.com Por su parte, la emisora religiosa PAB RADIO AFRICA NETWORK emite diariamente, vía WRMI-Radio Miami Internacional desde Okeechobee, hacia América del sur y África en idioma inglés de 15.00 a 21.30 por la frecuencia de 17.790. Es muy buena verificadora y los informes se pueden enviar al siguiente correo: info@panambc.com Y terminamos con dos malas noticias: En Alemania, el pasado 21 de diciembre, la emisora Deutsche Welle, conocida también como La Voz de Alemania, dio por finalizada sus emisiones en onda corta después de 72 años, marcando así el fin de una era significativa en la historia de las comunicaciones. Durante años la emisora ha llevado noticias y programas culturales a todos los oyentes del mundo, su cierre (como el de otras emisoras internacionales), representa una pérdida lamentable, no solo para el mundo de la información, sino también para todo el diexismo. Y en la onda media de España, el pasado 31 de diciembre tras 88 años de emisiones, RADIO NACIONAL DE ESPAÑA Y RADIO 5 finalizaron sus emisiones en esta banda para concentrar sus esfuerzos en el desarrollo de la radio digital ante el continuado descenso de la audiencia de la onda media, esto ha supuesto el cierre y desaparición de más de 100 transmisores. Recordemos que en Europa ya hay un total de 26 países que han apagado sus transmisores públicos nacionales. Por último, les indicamos que pueden oír y leer este informe en radio.aer.org.es, además todos sus programas diexistas favoritos están disponibles en programasdx.com, donde hay un total de 10 programas disponibles. Y, no olviden que nos pueden escribir al correo info arroba aerclub.es, desde nuestra web aer.org.es así como desde nuestro perfil en Facebook. ¡Hasta el próximo mes, muchos 73s y buenos DX!

News of Silent Keys:- Greg Ackman VK4BBX and Ray Hinks VK4LU Sad news to report that TARC Life Member Ray Hinks VK4LU has gone Silent Key. Ray was a former member of the Queensland Police Service, a foundation member of the Townsville Civil Defence Volunteers, and a volunteer with the Townsville Division of the Queensland State Emergency Service. Ray came to Australia with his family from the UK when only a nipper but could remember the bleak weather in Blighty. He much enjoyed the tropical weather of Townsville, constantly scoffed the weather boffins' forecast for rain and rugged up well when the temperature in North Queensland dipped below 15C. Ray did great things for theTARCinc, serving as Treasurer and also setting up through the local federal members of Parliament permission to print the magazine of renown, Back-scatter, an arrangement that continues to this day. While in good health, Ray was also active on HF and out in the field, helping with many comms support events. He enjoyed holidays away fruit picking and occasionally touring the Cape in his old but reliable Hi-Lux van (he went places with the 2-wheel drive vehicle many 4WD drivers would avoid) and always said that he would be lucky to see 70years old. Well, he made it to 92. During the last year, Rays's health started to decline even more, and a diagnosis of Stage 4 Cancer sealed the deal. He enrolled in the Volunteer Assisted Dying scheme, set his affairs in order and went Silent Key in Townsville University Hospital on Friday, 23rd January at 0400UTC. Before passing between 0335 and 0338UTC Ray's daughter Yvette, went on-air as Ray's Second Operator through the Townsville VHF Repeater and asked for any stations to send Ray any last messages. TARC Club Station VK4WIT responded, wishing Ray good DX and best journeys on his DXpedition in the next world. Ray's funeral was a private service attended by family members. Vale Ray Hinks VK4LU - Silent Key. VK4BBX Two men died in a light plane crash north of the Gold Coast shortly after taking off from a private airstrip at about 6 am on Tuesday en route to a small town near Tamworth in NSW. Police have confirmed the 73-year-old pilot from Beenleigh and his male passenger, believed to be from Sydney, died at the scene. They were the only occupants of the plane which came down just after take-off in bushland in Jacobs Well, near the Heck Field Airstrip, shortly before 6 am on Tuesday. The Pilot? VK4BBX Greg Ackman Greg was the founder of Mobile One antennas. He built the business from a garage-based operation during the 1970s. He became a ham in late 2021. VK4BBX was a familiar face in the Australian amateur radio community, often showcasing Mobile One products at field days and events. Vale VK4BBX. This is Laurie VK4BLE from the Redcliffe and Districts Radio Club. The Redcliffe and Districts Radio Club presents Redfest 2026 – Saturday, the 11th of April at Deception Bay North State School. This year's highlight: major prize draw for the brand-new Icom IC-7300 Mark II transceiver! Enjoy hands-on workshops with excellent technical speakers, including the FreeDV team from Victoria, demonstrating open-source digital voice over HF. Plenty of resellers offering new and pre-loved gear, plus breakfast, morning tea, and fresh barista coffee on site. Join us for trading, learning, prizes, and great company on Saturday, 11 April 2026. We can't wait to see you at Redfest!"

Hello and Welcome to the DX Corner for yourweekly Dose of DX. I'm Bill, AJ8B.I mentioned previously that I would be addressing two issues, as I do at the beginning of each year. The first is my goals for 2026. We accomplished that last week. The second issue was to share those contests that I have participated in over the years. I have found them to be excellent opportunities to improve your skills, garner you some new band slots and potentially some ATNOS. The dates that I am referring to include the State QSO Parties, international DX contests, and regional DX contests. I have worked many normally difficult entities during contests and found it very easy (sometimes) to get them in the log. I have about 90 dates that I would suggest that you keep in mind. However, you don't need to write them down. I have created two items to make it easy for you. There is a list of dates andcontests in both .pdf and Excel format. Both files can be found at www.aj8b.com/files. Let me know if you have any questions. If you are somewhat skilled with Excel, you can create a CSV file from the Excel workbook and import it in to your personal calendar.The following DX information comes from Bernie, W3UR, editor of the DailyDX, the WeeklyDX, and the How's DX column in QST.

Their goal is to make over 100,000 QSOsduring their 30 days on the air. J5 - Guinea-Bissau - Bavarian Contest Club members will be operating J51A from Guinea-Bissau in February/March 2026. The location is on the island's northern shore with an unobstructed view over water, using generator power 24/7 due to lack of public electricity. Their  main goal is to provide contacts from Guinea-Bissau, which is ranked as number  85 worldwide, and number 53 in Asia. QSL cards and LoTW confirmations will be managed through Club Log OQRS, and donations are welcome via Club Log.H4 - Solomon Islands - DL2GAC, Bernhard now in the Solomon Islands as H44MS until mid-May.  He departed India last Wednesday, arriving in the Solomons' capital on Friday.  He is renewing his H44MS license, which was scheduled to expire in early February.  He will move to his "usual QTH" there tomorrow or Wednesday.  He has taken with him a Hexbeam that covers 20-6, to replace his old tri-bander that covered 20-10.  He says the weather is poor, lots of rain, no sunshine.  He plans to mostly be on 40M this time, with a dipole 20M high in a palm tree near the ocean. V6 - Federated States of Micronesia - Yesterday afterarriving on Chuuk (OC-011), JA1XGI (Haru) reports his amplifier was likely damaged during airport transport. Nevertheless, he has been active as V6CU25, operating FT8 and CW on 160, 40, 30, 20, and 15 meters. S21WD – Bangladesh 2026: Project Update - The NextGeneration DX Club is pleased to announce a major milestone for its upcoming Bangladesh DXpedition: the callsign S21WD has been officially issued for the project. The DXpedition will be active for 12 days and operate on 160 through 10 meters, including 5 MHz (60 m), using CW, SSB, RTTY, and FT8. In addition, activity via the QO-100 satellite is planned using CW, SSB, and FT4. I mentioned that the KP5 DXpedition to Desecheo was racking up record numbers and they were working all continents. If you would like to learn more about this DXpedition, check out the DX Mentor podcast and YouTube channel. AJ8B and W8GEX had a great discussion with team leader, Otis, NP4G, about all aspects of the DesecheoDXpedition. Give it a listen and let me know what you think!  Until next week, this is Bill, AJ8B saying 73 and thanks to my XYL Karen for her love and support. IHope to hear you in the pileups!

NP4G, Otis, and several other team members were on the island setting up the antennas, stations and solar panels. We have an update from the KP5 team - Desecheo DXpedition 2026 Update“Please be patient—this is only Day Two of a planned 30-day activation. This DXpedition represents a completely new operating concept designed specifically for environmentally sensitive, highly regulated, and restricted locations. As with any first-of-its-kind effort, refinements are ongoing. Our team leaders, along with electrical and software engineers, are actively fine-tuning operating schedules, band and mode selection, RF power levels, and overall system performance to optimize results as conditions evolve. Due to Desecheo's geographic location, North American stations are currently dominating propagation. That said, our operators have been explicitly instructed to listen for DX stations and to give them priority whenever possible in order to broaden log coverage. We ask for your patience as we work through the pileups and strive to put as many stations as possible into the log.A primary goal of this DXpedition is to deliver as many ATNOs as we can worldwide. Thank you for your understanding, your support, and your cooperation.Good luck in the pileups—and we'll see you in the log!73,Steve N2AJMedia Officer & PilotDesecheo DXpedition 20265H - Tanzania - Dr. Charles, NK8O, is QRV from Tanzania as 5H3DX until February 9 with limited radio activity due to other commitments.

In this short podcast, Bryan answers a question submitted to HVAC School by an aspiring licensed architect who wanted to learn more about the many different types of HVAC systems. The three main buckets of HVAC systems are air-to-air, water-source, and air-to-water. Air-to-air systems move air around to remove heat from one space, and that heat is rejected to the air somewhere else. Water-source systems move water around the building and use water as the heat rejection medium. Air-water hybrid systems condition the load with water and may use air for ventilation; water or air may be used as the rejection medium. Systems may be direct-exchange (DX) and may transfer heat directly to refrigerant, or they may flow the air or water over a coil with water or glycol, utilizing a secondary fluid. Systems may also have separate indoor and outdoor architecture (split systems), or all components may be rolled into a single box (package unit). Package units include window units, PTACs, and RTUs. When it comes to forced-air systems, constant air volume (CAV) systems maintain the same volume of airflow (though the temperatures will change). Variable air volume (VAV) systems use one stream of cold air in a main duct, and each zone has a VAV box that functions as a damper to control zones individually. Dual duct systems have one cold duct and one warm duct that run parallel to each other and mix at each zone. Packaged rooftop units (RTUs) are self-contained with ducts that run down into the space and are common in retail spaces. Air-to-water systems use fan coil units (FCUs) fed with chilled or hot water. Air moves locally inside the space, so there is less ductwork and good zone control, but there are many units to manage. Chillers make chilled water, and that water is pumped around the building and sent to individual air handler units (AHUs). These are highly efficient and have large amounts of piping. They need mechanical rooms and dedicated personnel to maintain them. Variable refrigerant flow (VRF) systems are DX systems that are becoming more popular and consist of multiple indoor units with one or more outdoor units. Some of these can be used for heat recovery, meaning one space can be cooled while another is heated. Heat pump types include air-source, water-source, and ground-source. Air-source heat pumps absorb heat from the air via one unit and reject it via the other; the outdoor and indoor units can swap functions. Water-source heat pumps are common in commercial applications and have multiple heat pumps tied into a water loop that tries to stay within a given temperature range via boilers and cooling towers. Ground-source or geothermal heat pumps pick up heat from the earth's stable temperature and are highly efficient, but they have high installation costs. Passive systems come in all sorts of varieties and reduce the HVAC system's loads but don't replace HVAC systems in North America. Mechanical systems consist of straight-cool (air conditioner with electric heat), furnaces (gas, propane, or oil combustion), or heat pump (reversible air conditioners) systems.   Have a question that you want us to answer on the podcast?

On this special REMIX episode of What Happened When, Tony Schiavone and Conrad Thompson sit down together to watch WWF Monday Night RAW from April 27, 1998—and for Tony, it's a first-time viewing of one of the most infamous moments of the Monday Night War. The focus? D-Generation X and their audacious, real-world invasion of World Championship Wrestling. As the episode unfolds, Tony reacts in real time to seeing Triple H, X-Pac, and the New Age Outlaws roll up to WCW's doorstep, cameras rolling, lines blurring between storyline and reality. From the perspective of a man who was insideWCW when it happened, Tony offers candid, unfiltered insight into what the locker room likely thought, how management viewed the stunt, and why this moment symbolized WWF's growing confidence in 1998. Conrad guides the conversation with context—breaking down where WWF stood creatively, why this episode of Monday Night Raw felt so dangerous and unpredictable, and how DX's fourth-wall-breaking antics represented a turning point in the war for wrestling fans' attention. Expect laughs, disbelief, and plenty of "I can't believe they did that" moments as Tony processes the invasion not as a rival executive, but as a fan watching history unfold. The duo also discusses how this single segment changed perceptions, raised the stakes, and helped redefine what competition looked like in professional wrestling. It's a rare, behind-the-curtain look at the DX invasion—told by the voice of WCW himself—on an episode that proves just how wild, bold, and real the Monday Night Wars had become.

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. About George Chang George Chang is the Senior Director of Digital Experience at Hexagon, leading digital transformation efforts to modernize web experiences, streamline operations, and drive business impact.
