Randall Thomas graduated with Web Development Cohort 54. Growing up as a musician and producer, I have been working with complicated software for years as a necessity. That necessity grew into a curiosity, and then a passion. My love for finding out what makes things tick, abstract thinking, and connecting dots have brought me to software development where I can apply even more of my creative, technical, and analytical skills.

The culture of your programming community directly impacts your professional success. As Thunderbolt Labs Founder Randall Thomas explains in this episode, a community that practices openness and which warmly welcomes its newer members leads to greater career happiness. We open our chat with Randall by exploring his start in coding and how he discovered Elixir. He shares some of the teething problems that he had moving from Ruby to Elixir before we touch on how learning other languages expands your ability to both appreciate and code in languages that you’re already fluent in. Following this, Randall explodes the myth of the genius polyglot programmer by sharing his take on why all coders are polyglots. As the Thunderbolt CEO, we ask Randall how his company adopted Elixir. He provides listeners with insights into how they introduced Elixir into their practice without affecting existing projects. After highlighting the efficiency of Elixir and how community affects the feel of a language, we compare the culture and challenges of Ruby, JavaScript, and Elixir. Near the end of the episode, Randall reflects on why experts make for poor teachers. For Randall, Elixir gives his company a competitive advantage. Tune in to hear Randall’s perspective on why community matters and for his top advice on teaching your team Elixir. Key Points From This Episode: Introducing Thunderbolt Labs Founder and CEO, Randall Thomas. Randall shares how he discovered coding and engineering. Hear how Randall first heard about Elixir and how he picked up the language. Exploring common challenges moving from Ruby to Elixir. How learning new languages can deepen your understanding of languages that you already know. Why there’s no such thing as the ‘genius polyglot programmer.’ Details on why Randall’s company began gravitating towards Elixir. How communities affect the ‘feel’ of a language. Why no one actually writes in JavaScript anymore. Randall gives his take on why Elixir is a god-send for certain programmers. Insights into how Randall integrated Elixir into his company. The challenge of learning Elixir versus the ease of learning JavaScript. How Randall sold his clients on Elixir and the benefits of having clients that trust you. Randall’s top tips on helping your developers learn Elixir. Why Elixir gives Randall’s a strategic advantage. The importance of having non-experts explain things to you. How your coding community can impact your happiness and career success.

Toxic Clothing and Sustainable Couture with Jeff Garner

Jeff Garner is concerned about all the waste, chemicals, and pollutions of every day industrial consumerist life. His vision is to create sustainable lifestyle fashion using non-toxic and long lasting clothing. Jeff designs and produces each piece to last for generations. He admits that this is a comparatively poor business model. The big clothing companies design their clothing to be produced cheap and deteriorate fast. Got a rip or a hole? No problem, it was $7 anyway- throw it out. This allows for higher volume of sales. The demand has become cheap, throw away fashion perpetuated by a culture numb to waste and toxins. We see it every day. All Day. Another leaky nuclear reactor? Eh, we already have 2. Another widespread fire in Siberia? It’s just trees… we cut those down all day. “Don’t let your special character and values, the secret that you know and no one else does, the truth- don’t let that get swallowed up by the great chewing complacency.” — Aesop Jeff lives a life pursuing beauty and to achieve beauty there has to be harmony. This also means avoiding and (where possible) do away with toxic things all together. From clothing to food, (he mainly only eats yogurt and açaí berries for every meal) and even to the things he allows inside of his head. (He hates horror films) Any question of his authenticity was immediately put to rest after my very first inquiry in our interview. Jeff is obviously passionate about spreading awareness and creating a new paradigm in eco friendly fashion. ..."

This episode is featuring the quick witted rap master Bobby Exodus. Bobby is a musician, artist, lyricist and philosopher. I love talking to him because he can speak on every level very intentionally. He is a master of words and a devious little redhead with the kind of sense of humor that wins over most people given enough time. In this first part we talk about his music and some of the struggles growing up trying to do the right things and fighting natural instincts. Bobby is another one of my favorite people in the world so first I wanted to share some of his music and lyrics before we get into the interview. So I play Cloud Noise and Matter Batter by Magic of Science and Bobby Exodus. I talk with Bobby about doing music and one of his projects Magic of Science with Bobby Exodus. Bobby talks about learning how to program beats on cakewalk and rap on cheap computer mics. We talk about how music helped curb his appetites for earthly pleasures. Coming up in hiphop with Maurice Barret and Maurice Bishop with a group called Royalty. He talks about feeling like you’re doing something worth while through creating music. Bobby tells us that writing and surrounding yourself with the right people is crucial for growth. We talk a bit about battle raps with Spoken Nerd (Nathan Conrad), rapping on the streets as promos for shows, and learning to hold your own lyrically in a cypher. Bobby says writing rap helped to identify questions which drove him towards God and the church, becoming involved in church and preaching through his music. Instead of talking about belief systems Bobby asks himself “What is a belief? Is a belief even important?” Christianity became an identity and a way to belong to a community for him. Bobby eventually broke away from the church feeling unfulfilled. He talks about how abstinence affected his walk with God. Replacing sex with unhealthy ways to exercise pent up sexual energy like drinking. Feeling like he was being cheated by being abstinent. Not knowing how to talk to girls, expecting the wrong things from women because of the poison of pornography. He talks about finally giving up and giving himself permission to experience the sexual part of life he stayed away from. Bobby speaks about feeling a need to play catch up on being social and sexual with women. Wanting an ultimate love, to feel close to someone. Bobby tells us about calming sexual energy through meditation, cultivating feminine energy, and personal mystic work. Experimenting with meditation- “I felt like I had a new toy.” He walks us through the microcosmic orbit meditation introduced by Thomas Anderson and his experiments with manipulating his experiences during meditation.
