Microsoft is making several Copilot products - should you? Carl and Richard talk to Phil Haack about the latest version of ab.bot, his customer success startup. Now Phil is calling ab.bot a Copilot for Customer Success since he incorporated OpenAI ChatGPT into it. The conversation tries to steer clear of the hysteria around modern large language models (although it is hard!) and more into the practical applications - using large language models to summarize long customer support conversations and find related conversations to current ones - perhaps identifying new high-priority features! The wave of large language models is in its early days, and with the new APIS available, it may be time to make them part of your projects too!

When should you pivot your startup? Carl and Richard talk to Phil Haack about his experiences with Abbot - the chatbot designed to work within Slack. Phil talks about starting with Abbot focused on ChatOps, where Abbot would help with automation around the deployment of applications. And while there were some customers, it wasn't enough. The pivot was to customer support that also depends on tools like Slack. The conversation digs into focusing on understanding where customers have challenges and learning to solve them, rather than trying to offer a platform for everything!

Phil Haack joins the podcast to discuss DevOps at GitHub! Phil has an interesting and extensive career background. He started out as a Manager of Software Engineering back in 1997. Since then, he’s done a lot — but some of his recent highlights include: being the main Program Manager at Microsoft from 2007-2011 (responsible for ASP.NET MVC and NuGet), and leading the Client Apps team as Director of Engineering at GitHub. Now, most recently, he has founded his own company, Haacked, which he started to mentor software organizations to be the best version of themselves. In today’s episode, your host, Jeffrey Palermo, and Phil Haack, dive deep into discussing DevOps at GitHub. They talk about his role as Director of Engineering; how GitHub, as a company, grew while Phil worked there; the inner workings of how the GitHub website ran; and details about how various protocols, continuous integration, automated testing, and deployment worked at GitHub. Topics of Discussion: [:48] About today’s episode with Phil Haack. [1:10] Phil talks about how he became the Program Manager at Microsoft in charge of ASP.NET MVC and NuGet, and what the role entailed. [4:00] The transformation Phil helped lead that continues to affect .NET developers today! [5:35] Phil shares the high points of his career at GitHub. [7:56] How Phil’s role at GitHub developed, and how (and why) GitHub went from “no managers and no meetings” to hiring on managers and starting meetings. [12:10] When did GitHub start to distribute regionally? [13:43] How many leased offices did GitHub crop up while Phil worked there? [15:25] What Phil is currently working on since leaving GitHub! [17:27] About the new book Phil is writing about GitHub. [20:07] Major strategic decisions and key aspects that gave GitHub the ability to put out features at a really fast clip for a really long time (with an incredible quality track record to boot!) [24:18] A word from The Azure DevOps Podcast’s sponsor: Clear Measure. [24:44] Architecturally, is GitHub.com one website or essentially two hundred different web applications that make up all the URLs of the website? [26:50] Was there a standard pipeline structure that GitHub maintained (or a common set of steps), or was it moreso a ship-it-however-you-can protocol per service? [27:50] If Phil had multiple services in the client application, did he have a separate Git repository for each one of those, OR, one Git repository for his team with multiple, independent services? [29:52] Did every continuous integration build have its own Git repository? [32:30] What types and quantity of automated testing did Phil pack into the continuous integration (CI) build? [33:48] Phil highlights some significant things that happened in the CI build step. [34:31] Did Phil find any good frameworks that worked out in the UI space? [35:02] What an automated test can’t tell you and why it’s so crucial to have a really good tester! [36:15] When they did have automated deployment between environments, what tools and methods did Phil use for those deployments? [38:04] For the services they were going to deploy to GitHub servers, how many environments did Phil set up in the deployment pipeline ahead of production? [41:07] The major tools on the deployment side when Phil was working at GitHub. [43:44] What Phil recommends listeners to follow-up on to continue their research!

Microsoft acquires GitHub! What does this mean? Carl and Richard talk to Phil Haack about what's going to change and what isn't - starting with, at least for the foreseeable future, Phil is not a Microsoft employee! GitHub is going to be a wholly owned subsidiary of Microsoft, operated independently. But having Microsoft resources available does open some interesting doors - Phil talks about the vast amount of resources that Microsoft has to move quickly on cool features and projects around the open source world!Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/net-rocks/donations
Phil Haack works at GitHub bringing the power of social coding to .NET and Windows developers. Prior to GitHub Phil worked at Microsoft as a Senior Program Manager shipping software such as ASP.NET MVC and NuGet. Phil is also a co-author of the ASP.NET MVC series of books as well as a regular speaker at conferences around the world. In this episode Phil Haack tells us why we need to be prepared to have difficult conversations and why this can help your career. Phil also talks about the importance of taking care when writing code and why you should test your code carefully.

Ready to use GitHub beyond your browser? Carl and Richard talk to Phil Haack about his latest work at GitHub, where they are focused on expanding the audience that can rely on GitHub for social coding of all types. The discussion starts out focused on the rewrite of GitHub Desktop to Electron and the impact that has had for maintainability of code, and then moves to the latest work done to support game development in GitHub, specifically for Unity developers. Game development involves large digital assets like 3D models, movies and music - not the usual fodder for a Git repository.

How do you rewrite critical code safely? Carl and Richard talk to Phil Haack about his work on Scientist.NET. Phil talks about the challenges of rewriting code, which means taking something that works (more or less) and trying to make it better, at the risk of breaking it. Yes, test suites would help, but who has those on legacy projects? The Scientist library makes it easier for you to build a new version of a function in your legacy application and run it in parallel to the old function, so that you can validate the results in production without breaking anything. The conversation also turns to the value of rewrites, how tooling, techniques and technology have changed to make it more feasible to do major rewrites, and all the other geeky goodness that comes from hanging with Phil Haack.

This is the first in a new series of podcasts from the people behind InfoQ.com and the QCon conferences - the Engineering Culture Podcast. In this podcast, Wes Reisz, chair of the QCon conferences in San Francisco, London and New York talks to Phil Haack, an Engineering Director at GitHub focused on software pushed mostly to the desktop. He’s shipping software like GitHub Desktop, GitHub Extensions for Visual Studio and the Atom text editor. Haack joined GitHub in 2011 and is a prominent member of the .Net community. At Microsoft Phil was core to shipping NewGit and ASP.NET, MVC.NET. Why listen to this podcast: - There is often too much focus on the nitty-gritty details of software development practices but as you scale out to larger projects and teams the challenges are not technological- they are sociological. - Research shows that teams which are more diverse are more effective. - Engineers shifting to management should consider it a discipline like any other technical field; it’s not something that you should “just wing”. - Building an effective team requires trust and that allows candid discussions and healthy debates without disrupting the relationships. One-on-ones can be an effective way to do that. - To be an effective coach for engineers, a manager needs to be seen as a strong technical leader. Someone without technical credibility is generally not received well. Notes and links can be found on InfoQ: https://bit.ly/2L7Irg3 5m 10s The big problems we have are sociological, and frequently companies and engineers don’t pay enough attention to these problems because they try to focus on the technical practices instead; but the root cause is how people interact with each other and how they are working together. 5m 40s The talk covers some personal lessons learned and the research that backs those personal lessons. There is validated research that shows certain things make for more effective teams.

Scott Hanselman and Phil Haack visited the "Open Source Fest" at Mix 11 in Las Vegas just a few months ago. One of the projects that really stood out - amongst the dozens of great projects shown - was Glimpse.Glimpse is a server-side NuGet package that plugs into ASP.NET (and other technologies soon) and adds a client-side almost "Firebug"-style UI that gives you amazing insights into your web application. It's gotta be seen to be understood and appreciated.This is raw footage, to be clear, but it's fun. We start talking at the beginning and are a little silly, but we quickly move out into the hallway and can hopefully be better heard over the din.Learn more about Glimpse at http://getglimpse.com and follow Anthony van der Hoorn (@anthony_vdh) and Nik Molnar (@nikmd23) on Twitter!
Mix 11 is today so Scott got the scoop from Phil on the new tools being released.
In this found video (I found it on my Windows 7 Phone, oops!) Scott is at Qdoba with Phil Haack, Ted Neward and two other gentlemen whose names escape me. As I recall, the conversation became so interesting that I had to pull out my phone and start recording the raw footage. That footage is here, remainging raw. We talk about Testing, Culture, Microsoft, Agile and Tacos.

How do you rewrite critical code safely? Carl and Richard talk to Phil Haack about his work on Scientist.NET. Phil talks about the challenges of rewriting code, which means taking something that works (more or less) and trying to make it better, at the risk of breaking it. Yes, test suites would help, but who has those on legacy projects? The Scientist library makes it easier for you to build a new version of a function in your legacy application and run it in parallel to the old function, so that you can validate the results in production without breaking anything. The conversation also turns to the value of rewrites, how tooling, techniques and technology have changed to make it more feasible to do major rewrites, and all the other geeky goodness that comes from hanging with Phil Haack. Happy episode 1400!Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/net-rocks/donations
