Last year Jimmy Bogard released commercial licensed versions of AutoMapper and Mediatr - how's it going? Carl and Richard chat with Jimmy about the decision to go commercial and what he's learned after a year. Making customer transactions is part of the process for sure, as is a new array of issues and ideas. But for the most part, Jimmy says it was the right decision and has been a good experience. Another great story of sustainable open source!

This Week’s Big Questions! You’ve been sending in your brilliantly curious questions, and this week… ✋ Why are most people right-handed?

How has testing changed in the era of AI? Carl and Richard talk to Debbie O'Brien in her new role at Zephyr about using LLMs to help build and validate tests - and much more. Debbie talks about joining Zephyr and using testing tools like Playwright to validate application workflows and generate documentation. This leads to a discussion about documentation being more important than ever, since LLMs will actually read it! Maintaining quality is a challenge with LLM-generated code and tests, so there's always a role for a critical eye in the process.

José Luis Gallego, Miguel Ángel Cagijal, el Barroquista y Antonio Martínez Ron nos hablan del Superniño y sus consecuencias, de los cambios que han sufrido las Orcas y de la aparición de un nuevo Velazquez.

The Open Source Maintenance Fee is more than a year old now - how are things going? Carl and Richard catch up with Rob Mensching to discuss the OSMF and its success in supporting Rob's WiX Toolset project. Rob talks about the key aspect of the OSMF - making it part of the licensing, so that it isn't optional. Of course, you can download the source from GitHub and compile it yourself without violating any license terms, but if you're that engaged, you can contribute too. The goal with OSMF is to have folks who want to use the product have a reason and method to pay - check it out!

Have you checked out Azure Container Apps lately? Carl and Richard talk to Paul Yuknewicz and Jan Kalis about how they have sped up startup time with Container Apps using a feature called Express, and then on to the big news - Sandboxes. Sandboxes let you experiment with Azure Container Apps with managed identity to access Azure Connectors to all sorts of resources, both within Azure and outside it - Salesforce, SAP, etc. It's an effective and secure strategy for building applications, but also for experimenting with agents - at no point does the agent actually have control of any credentials. If you haven't looked at ACA lately, you need to check out these latest features!

Arved Fuchs meldet sich aus dem Navigationsraum der Dagmar Aaen – Reykjavík ist voller Trubel: Crewwechsel, Lebensmittel bunkern, letzte Reparaturen. Zehn Menschen an Bord, und bald geht es weiter.In dieser Folge spricht Bärbel Fening mit Arved Fuchs über das jüngste Bordgespräch in Reykjavík mit Dr. Alexandra Leeper vom Iceland Ocean Cluster – einem einzigartigen Innovationszentrum, das in einer alten Fischfabrik Wissenschaft, Start-ups und Wirtschaft zusammenbringt. Das Motto: 100 Prozent Fisch. Was das bedeutet? Aus Kabeljau-Haut wird Verbandsmaterial für Verbrennungswunden. Garnelen werden mit Licht statt mit Grundschleppnetzen gefangen. Und ein Kabeljau kann – vollständig verwertet – einen Wert von bis zu 5.000 Dollar erzielen. Die Verwertungsquote stieg von 45 auf über 90 Prozent. Außerdem: Die Orca-Sichtung vor den Westmännerinseln, die die ausgefallene Begegnung mit Forscherin Dr. Filipa Samara noch unvergesslicher macht. Und die nächste große Etappe steht bevor – über die Dänemarkstraße nach Grönland. Was das bedeutet: Eisnavigation, Eisberge mit Schleppen aus tonnenschweren Graulern, Nebel über dem Ostgrönlandstrom. Arved erklärt, worauf es ankommt – und warum man jeden Törn so angeht, als wäre es das erste Mal. Es besteht eine bezahlte Markenpartnerschaft mit NIBE.NIBE - Die Wärmepumpen Experten.Weitere Informationen unter www.nibe.deFacebookInstagramYouTubeTikTokwww.arved-fuchs.dewww.baerbel-fening.de

DNSimple has a CLI! Carl and Richard talk to DNSimple CEO Anthony Eden about the evolution of the DNSimple CLI in today's software market. DNSimple provides DNS, domain registrar, and certificate services - so why does it need a CLI? Anthony talks about earlier experiments with CLIs for folks who didn't want to use the web interface. But today, large language models change the game and work best with a CLI - those specific commands mean more accurate results from LLMs, which make for a powerful natural language interface experience. The conversation covers the new tooling around LLMs, how the registrar market has evolved, changes to certificates, and ICANN's recent announcement of new gTLDs. DNSimple continues to evolve with the times! Check the show notes for a link for ten dollars off anything at DNSimple!

Wir sprechen mit Rui Alves, dem Gründer von [orcas.pt](https://www.orcas.pt/), der führenden Plattform für Orca-Interaktionen vor der iberischen Küste. Ein virales Video lenkt derzeit die Aufmerksamkeit auf die Orcas, doch wie gefährlich sind diese Begegnungen tatsächlich? Rui Alves teilt zudem exklusive Informationen darüber, wie er gemeinsam mit der portugiesischen und spanischen Marine sowie einer engagierten Community Daten sammelt und validiert. Er schildert anschaulich, wie Szenarien an Bord ablaufen können und welche sofortigen Schritte empfohlen werden, sollten Segler sich in einer solchen Situation befinden. Außerdem wirft der Orca-Experte einen Blick darauf, wie sich diese Interaktionen im Laufe der Jahre entwickelt haben und welche Schlussfolgerungen daraus gezogen werden können, um das Segeln sicherer zu gestalten. Der Portugiese bietet nicht nur spannende Einblicke in die Verhaltensweisen der Tiere, sondern auch praktische Tipps zur Risikominimierung auf See. Kritisch hinterfragt werden Abwehrmaßnahmen, die mehr schaden als nutzen, sowie der Mythos von gezielten Angriffen.

Do data centers in space make any sense? Time for a rare summer-time Geek Out! Richard chats with Carl about all the hype surrounding building orbital data centers for AI workloads. Richard points out that enthusiasm for this idea surged in the fall of 2025, when the backlash against ground data centers peaked. But could you actually make the orbital data centers work? The conversation works through a reasonable satellite design, covering off the details of power, cooling, communications, and satellite management. But how many satellites would be enough? This leads to an exploration of Kessler Syndrome, where orbital debris gets out of control - and what we can reasonably do about it. Which leads to another idea - how do we make ground-based data centers not suck?

With news that Elon Musk in the world's first trillionaire after the historic SpaceX IPO, Justin joins me to discuss the financial gamesmanship at work in the AI industry, the planetary limits of this particular phase of capitalism, and the reasons why the #TeslaTakedown moment is long in the past.

Can tooling make event sourcing implementations easier? Carl and Richard talk to Einar Ingebrigsten about his work on cratis.io - a set of open-source tools for implementing event sourcing in your application. Einar discusses the foundational elements of event sourcing and the common implementation patterns he developed at Cratis. With extensive support for .NET, Cratis provides tooling for data storage, event response, replay management, and much more. Also in development is Cratis Studio for collaborating visually on an event model - and generating the code in the process. 

Welcome back, to Dark Realms.Today we travel to Dorset, England, to explore the chilling folklore of Sandford Orcas Manor — a Tudor house near Sherborne long associated with some of Britain's most unsettling ghost stories. Known as “the house that collected ghosts,” the manor's legends include mysterious apparitions, unexplained figures, and disturbing encounters said to have unfolded within its historic walls and grounds. Blending haunted history, local folklore, and atmospheric storytelling, this episode examines how Sandford Orcas Manor became one of Dorset's most intriguing paranormal locations, where centuries of family history, tragedy, rumour, and fear appear to linger in the stoneStay safe,Kevin.We're giving a full weeks trial of our Patreon away!

Is it time to build your own agent harness? Carl and Richard talk to Emmz Rendle about her work on Daemonic AI, which gives you more control over which models and tooling you use to build software with agents. Emmz talks about the upcoming rug pull in AI software development tools, where prices are rising, and services are being restricted. Having enough control to choose when to run locally becomes key to being productive at a reasonable price. Being able to pick-and-choose what agents and configurations to use for each of the agent roles you want to implement is super powerful - check out the GitHub project and take it for a spin!

What settings, configurations, and workflows do you use for every .NET app? Carl and Richard talk to Scott Sauber about his list - from organizing folders by feature, to logging, security, and testing. Scott talks about enforcing rules like treating warnings as errors so you won't ignore important warnings, and validation in the build, to make applications more reliable. Each of these items represents some work, but in the end, your application will be higher quality and more reliable. Which ones are you already doing?

Great white sharks have disappeared from some of South Africa's most famous shark hotspots, but the reason may not be as simple as the popular story suggests. In this episode, Chris Fallows returns to talk about orcas, white sharks, shark nets, longline fisheries, and the uncomfortable possibility that humans played a much larger role than many people want to admit. This conversation looks beyond the headline of orcas hunting great whites and asks a harder question: what happens when we focus on the predator we cannot control while ignoring the human systems we can? From False Bay to Gansbaai to the broader South African coastline, this episode explores how shark conservation, fisheries, tourism, photography, and public storytelling collide when an iconic predator starts to vanish.

Large Language Models can generate a lot of text - but is it any good? Carl and Richard talk to Vishwas Lele about his ongoing efforts at pWin.ai to build tools for responding to government RFPs. Vishwas focuses on the quality problem - both the quality of the incoming RFP and the quality of the responding proposal. How do you determine the key requirements of an RFP reliably? And when it comes to the response, how do you provide measurable results for a response? The conversation digs into a change in workflow that benefits the RFP process regardless of tooling - and gives hints to the patterns of success with LLMs!

The two biggest slacker podcasters in Nevada are back! Tonight the fellas bring back their buddy, Steve Curto, and talk about...NOTHING! Nothing good anyway. The title says it all. The fellas talk about orcas, the word 'moist', McRibs, and nothing of value. May this episode bring you laughter and take up the empty space in your brain where you could have stored something else useless...like high school algebra or your D.A.R.E. education from 5th grade. 

Use What Works! Carl and Richard talk to Dylan Beattie about the Use What Works movement, encouraging developers to use well-maintained open-source projects available today rather than rolling their own. Dylan explains how folks go down a path of believing a library is simple until they learn enough to realize that every bit of software is more complicated than they realize. And the less code you own, the happier and more productive you are. Adding AI to the mix only makes it clearer: you need some stability in development. If you're changing every layer of code, you'll spend even more time and frustration chasing problems. Make getting results easier - use what works!

This month is Orcas Island month, and we are kicking it off with someone who is, safe to say, super stoked on swimrun. Julia Dinesen is a multi-discipline endurance athlete from British Columbia who found the sport via an Ötillö Instagram ad, signed up for the World Series distance at Whistler on her first ever attempt, and has been hooked ever since. Before we get to Julia, we share a few tips for getting the most out of your swimrun practice sessions as we head into race season. Have a plan before you show up. Decide what you are testing. And do transition drills — the Boston Wet Sox, the best US team in history, are still doing them deep into long practice sessions, which tells you everything you need to know. Julia found swimrun the way a lot of people do — an Instagram ad showing someone running off a cliff in their running shoes into the water. She saw it, looked up Ötillö Whistler, realized it was an hour and a half from her house, signed up, and loved it. In this conversation she shares what that first race was like, what she learned from it, how the 859-day running streak actually works, what it is like to be a swimrunner in Western Canada where nobody has heard of the sport, what gear changes she is making for Orcas, and what she would tell anyone who is on the fence about signing up. One moment worth flagging for anyone who has ever talked themselves into finishing something: Julia once rode 25 kilometers on a flat tire at a triathlon in the Okanagan, finished an hour after everyone else, and ended up qualifying for age group world championships in Australia on the roll-down. Her take on getting through hard things — it is more embarrassing to quit than to come last, the training is where you get all the benefit, and crossing the finish line is just the proof that you did the thing. FORM Goggles are sponsoring us all month as we build toward Orcas. The new Smart Swim 2 LT is their entry-level goggle — $149 for the heads-up display and full access to their training platform. Send us a DM if you have questions about it. We will see Julia — and a lot of you — at Orcas Island at the end of the month. Enjoy! That's it for this week's show. If you are enjoying the Löw Tide Böyz, be sure to subscribe to the show on your favorite podcast player and leave us a five-star rating and review since that's the best way for people to discover the show and the sport of Swimrun.

Ready to go nano? Carl and Richard talk to José Simões about the open source .NET nanoFramework - a community-driven project to provide .NET for embedded systems. José talks about the evolution from the .NET microFramework, to something even smaller, while at the same time, microcontrollers have gotten much more powerful. The conversation looks beyond the hobbyist and educational uses of these systems into commercial IoT applications. The development cycle is one you'll recognize, working in Visual Studio (or Visual Studio Code) and executing against an emulator, or to the actual controller via USB. And yes, you can set breakpoint in the controller!

The people running technology companies love to make wild predictions about the future. They've told us that artificial intelligence will cure cancer, eliminate drudgery and solve climate change. But those utopian visions have yet to materialize. Where are the revolutionary moonshots we've been promised? Aza Raskin may well have one. Raskin is the president of the Center for Humane Technology and the co-founder of the Earth Species Project, a non-profit using machine learning to decode animal communication. Raskin and his colleagues are envisioning a world where birds can vote and dolphins get to represent themselves in court. That might sound hard to believe – but Raskin says they're not far from making it a reality. So I wanted to ask him: what happens to our world – and to us – when animals have the right to speak?

The Y2K bug turned out to be a non-event on January 1, 2000. How did that happen? Carl and Richard bring together a number of stories from folks who were there, fixing the software and updating systems, so effectively that, ultimately, nothing much happened when the clocks rolled over. It was common practice with early software to only store two digits worth of year - back then, storage space was at a premium. For years, there had been warnings about fixing these problems, but by 1999, it was essential. These are the stories of how some folks did those fixes so effectively that when Jan 1 2000, came around, nothing bad happened.

Welcome to episode 329 of the Löw Tide Böyz - A Swimrun Podcast! You have done a few swimruns. You have the basic kit sorted. Now you are starting to notice the fiddly bits. Episode 329 is our Swimrun 201 breakdown of all of them — the advanced topics that come up once you have done a couple of races and started asking better questions. We go deep on tether management, kangaroo top organization, gel storage for races of every length, hydration on the move, sunscreen, eyewear, spare gear, and all the small things that separate a comfortable race from a chaotic one. A lot of this evolved from listener questions we get all the time, and all of it requires practice before race day. We share what has worked for us across 30-plus swimruns and what we are still iterating on heading into Orcas and Ötillö Worlds this year. A few highlights from the episode: keeping the tether engaged for 90 percent of the race and why it works better than the alternatives, how to organize your kangaroo top so you always know exactly which pocket to reach for, storing 12 gels for a race like Ötillö using interior wetsuit pockets, rock tape, and a bandolier system, using a collapsible flask stuffed down your pant leg for hydration without the bulk, and why sunscreen is still the biggest unsolved problem in swimrun. If you are new to the sport, start with our Swimrun 101 episodes — you can find them all in the LTBz Knowledge Base at lowtideboyz.com. This episode picks up where those leave off.

How are LLMs changing software development? Carl and Richard talk to Rob Conery about his experiences as a consultant bringing the new AI tools and techniques into companies. Rob talks about focusing on the most painful problems first to show the team quick results and make their lives better. The conversation digs into how these tools seriously change the way developers work and what it takes to embrace those changes. Lots of good thinking from a very experienced developer on how to do more than ever before!

What if Antarctica isn't changing as slowly as we think? And what if one of the biggest drivers of that change… is an animal most people only see as a top predator? In this episode, we look at what orcas are really doing in Antarctica, and why it might surprise you. These aren't just whales passing through a frozen landscape. They are specialized hunters with learned behaviors, working in coordinated groups, and possibly reshaping the ecosystem in ways scientists are still trying to understand. As sea ice melts and new areas of the Southern Ocean open up, orcas may be gaining access to places they couldn't reach as easily before. That shift could increase pressure on seals and penguins that already depend on ice for survival. But this story isn't about villains and victims. It's about how fast ecosystems can change when climate, habitat, and predator behavior all collide. In this episode, you'll learn: Why Antarctic orcas are more diverse than most people realize How coordinated hunting shows signs of culture, not just instinct What shrinking sea ice means for predator and prey dynamics; and Why scientists may still be behind in understanding what's really happening Antarctica might feel distant. But what's happening there could reshape how the ocean works far beyond the ice. Follow How to Protect the Ocean for more ocean science stories that explain what's really going on beneath the surface.

How do you make your agents more knowledgeable about your company data? Carl and Richard talk to Ed Charbeneau about Progress Agentic RAG-as-a-Service, using NucliaDB as a vector data store to organize your company information into a form an agent can work with efficiently. Ed talks about the various approaches available today for providing timely company data to agents and the power of a dedicated data store and service model so that you spend less time on plumbing and more time building a great agentic app. The products are open source and have great .NET SDKs - check them out!

ASP.NET Core continues to evolve in 2026! Carl and Richard talk to Daniel Roth about all the goodness in the ASP.NET Core space, including MVC, Razor, and Blazor! Daniel talks about the publicly visible ASP.NET Core Roadmap on GitHub - where you can support ideas, add your own, and debate implementations! The conversation dives into the focus on Blazor - MVC and Razor aren't going away anytime soon, or perhaps ever. Still, the energy is definitely on Blazor, and its potential to provide a great development experience that scales effectively and provides the features your applications need. And Daniel reminds us that the teams all work closely together, including the broader .NET and language teams, so new features are in the right place and available to everyone!

Cats sometimes drop food at their owner's front door—lizards, mice, or other small prey. A recent study found that killer whales sometimes offer food to people as well. But the reason for that sharing is unclear. Orcas are social animals. They hunt together, they play, and they share their food. And they're often found around people. They swim along with boats and divers, and they've even hunted with human fishers. In a recent study, scientists compiled reports of orcas sharing food with people on boats, in the water, or on shore. They found 34 examples, including some from their own experience. Many of the events were photographed or caught on video. To qualify for the study, a whale had to approach the people, not the other way around. It had to get close before releasing the food. And it couldn't take the food back right away—it had to wait for a response from the people. The sharing orcas included males and females, of all ages. Sometimes a single whale made the offer, but sometimes it was two or more. They offered fish, birds, mammals, and other treats. They sometimes waited minutes for a response. And if the human didn't snatch the food, or gave it back, the whale sometimes offered it again. The researchers said there could be several reasons for the sharing. It could be a way to communicate or to learn more about the people. It could simply be a way of playing. Or it could be a way to lure the people in—a not-so-friendly way of sharing. The post Sharing Orcas appeared first on Marine Science Institute. The University of Texas at Austin..

What does secure coding look like today? Carl and Richard talk to Chris Ayers about the MITRE ATT&CK matrix, a comprehensive breakdown of the tactics, techniques, and procedures black hats use to exploit your systems. Chris talks about the role of developers in creating more secure software, starting with logging - surfacing important data about the use of applications that can help indicate when a black hat is taking advantage of it. The conversation also digs into supply chain attacks, various techniques for resisting exploits being introduced through libraries, and the ever-expanding array of threats affecting software today!

Let the squad help you build your application! Carl and Richard talk to Brady Gaster about Squad, a tool for creating an AI development team using GitHub Copilot. Brady discusses creating specialist agents across various aspects of building an application to keep context as small as possible, along with token consumption. Often, agents communicate with other agents to work through project problems, generating persistent information about the project, including skills as needed. Squad continues to evolve and get more powerful - try it with your application!

Avalonia continues to evolve! Carl and Richard talk to Avalonia CEO Mike James & Matt Lacey about the latest version of Avalonia, the open source UI framework for building cross-platform applications with .NET. Mike's conversation with the Google Flutter team has led to replacing the Skia rendering engine in Avalonia with the newer Impeller Rendering Engine that Flutter itself depends on. This opens the door to excellent smartphone implementations with Avalonia, alongside its usual desktop and embedded roles. With enterprise editions and the new Avalonia Accelerate, there's more to come from the team!

Your first app interface should be a CLI! Carl and Richard talk to Kathleen Dollard about her experiences creating the .NET CLI - and how CLIs are only getting more important in the era of AI. Kathleen talks about working within the POSIX CLI standard for consistency's sake and to recognize that there will be many more CLIs in your life, so they should be as similar as possible. While CLIs may have started as configuration-as-code and DevOps practices, LLMs work well with them as long as consistency is maintained. There are several projects out there today to help you build a great CLI - check the links!

It's Orcas 100 week!
