In this episode of Building Better Developers, hosts Rob Broadhead and Michael Meloche revisit their popular discussion “Your Developer Journey – How to Leave a Lasting Legacy.” They use AI-generated prompts only as conversation starters, then share their own insights on what a developer legacy truly means today. You'll hear practical advice on writing code that stands the test of time, sharing work through open source, and creating a collaborative culture that thrives long after you've moved on. Whether you're a junior engineer mapping your career path or a seasoned architect shaping teams, this conversation offers a roadmap for making your impact felt—and remembered. Why a Developer Legacy Matters A developer legacy is more than old code—it's the enduring value your work provides. Rob and Michael show how your professional footprint can guide teams long after you've left a project or company. Pro Tip: Adoption is the real metric of legacy. Aim for solutions people use every day. From Quick Fixes to Timeless Impact Move from “just closing tickets” to designing systems that stand the test of time. Readable, maintainable code with clear names and documentation. Robust testing so future developers can extend features confidently. Stable interfaces that prevent painful rewrites. Key Takeaway: Clean, tested code is the cornerstone of a lasting developer legacy. Open Source: A Fast Track to Developer Legacy Michael highlights how open source accelerates your developer legacy: Publish a reusable tool or library. Provide a five-minute “Getting Started” guide. Welcome contributions and feedback to refine your craft. Reminder: A well-documented repository is a résumé that never sleeps. Culture Outlives Code Rob emphasizes mentorship and collaborative culture as essential to any developer legacy: Mentor teammates to spread good practices. Host “mini hackathons” or team debugging sessions. Reward shared learning over individual heroics. Insight: Culture is the invisible code base that scales excellence. Milestones on the Legacy Path Every career has pivotal steps where legacy thinking grows: From first pull requests to defining team standards. From individual contributor to automation architect. From private successes to public tools and templates. Challenge: Ship one reusable script or CI template this week and invite team feedback—your first step toward a visible developer legacy. AI as a Legacy Multiplier AI can accelerate your developer legacy when treated as a partner: Draft tests or refactor with AI assistance. Summarize modules for quick onboarding docs. Share successful prompts as a team “AI playbook.” Final Takeaway A developer legacy is deliberate: thoughtful code, shared knowledge, and a culture of mentorship. Start today—document, mentor, and publish—and your impact will outlive any single job.

We look at this “extra” signature Psalm of David, alongside his story in 1 Samuel/1 Kingdoms 17, and with reference to 1 Corinthians 1:22-27. In these we find a particular Christian theme, connected with the triumph of the Holy Cross: God uses what we consider weak in order to bring about His mighty deeds!
We read 4 Maccabees, a book on the very edge of the canon, in the light of what St. Gregory Nazianzen says, as well as in light of Hebrews 11, Acts 22, and Revelation 12. In it are poignant examples of martyrdom, and strong encouragement to not be ruled by our passions.
We read the fascinating book confusingly called 3 Maccabees (which is mostly about Jews in Egypt BEFORE the time of the Maccabees) in the light of Exodus 15, Daniel 3, Daniel 6, Esther, and Jonah 2. God is not confined to the Temple, but comes to the aid of His people everywhere when they pray.
In this episode we consider the stories of Jonathan and Simon, finishing our study of 1 Maccabees (1 Maccabees 9:24-16:24), and then turn to the stories of martyrdom in 2 Maccabees 7. Our readings are clarified by passages from the Old Testament (1 Kings/3 Kingdoms 5:4, Micah 4:4, Zechariah 8:4, and Ezekiel 34:27) as well as from the New Testament (Hebrews 12; Romans 4:17). Intertwined narratives of war and peace on the grand scale, and personal martyrdom with the hope of resurrection, offer encouragement to us to remain faithful in our own day.
We read the exciting saga of 1 Maccabees 3:1-9:22, understanding Judas Maccabeus' role in the light of 1 Samuel/2 Kingdoms 17, and Psalm 100 (MT 101). His example of joy, encouragement, and fortitude continue to speak to us in our day, with our own challenges and conflicts.

We read the exciting chapter 2 of 1 Maccabees, comparing it to the story of Phinehas in Numbers 25:7-9, as well as in the light of Psalm 106: 26-28 and Hebrews 11. The problem of violence done by biblical heroes is considered, as well as the faithfulness and courage of Mattathias, the father of the Maccabean brothers.
We consider the importance of history and human chronicles to our faith, beginning our exploration of 1 Maccabees, with its first chapter. In this we note its embeddedness in the flow of history, its connections with Daniel, Hebrews, and 1 Corinthians, and its challenges to us today.
The Epistle of Jeremiah (found sometimes as Baruch 6) is illumined by reference to Matthew 6:21, Numbers 21:4-9, 4 Kingdoms/2 Kings 18:4, Jeremiah 2:13, 1 Corinthians 8 and 10, Philippians 3:18-19, and Colossians 3:5. We apply the prophet's words regarding idolatry of man-made things to present day idolatries of various sorts, and also consider how icons are meant to point us to the living God, not to distract us from the One who alone is good.
In this episode we read the concluding consolation of Baruch 4:9-5:9, understanding it in the light of Isaiah 60:14, Isaiah 61:1-4, 9-10, 2 Tim 4:8, and Rev 21:1-4, 22-26. Here the prophet turns from confession to joy, anticipating the glory which God will bestow upon His people, seen in part now, but fully in the age to come.
We read the central portion of Baruch (3:9-4:8), understanding its mysterious words about Wisdom in light of Deuteronomy 3:11-14, Romans 10:5-13, 1 Cor 1:30-31. The prophet saw Wisdom in the Law, but also glimpsed the time when Wisdom would visit us as a human being, the LORD Jesus Himself.
Baruch 2-3, the honest confession of the exiled people before God, is a very helpful reading for our time of Lenten repentance, and is clarified by reference to Dan 9:7-19, Deuteronomy 28:15-69, Deuteronomy 30, Jeremiah 24:1-10 and 2 Chronicles 6:12-42.
Why should we pray for secular leaders? Hear about this and also about the importance corporate confession from Baruch 1, with light from Romans 13, Daniel 9, and 1 Timothy 2.
This week we read the lengthy commemorative poem of “the fathers” in Sirach 44-50, comparing it with Wisdom of Solomon 10 and Hebrews 11, and understanding it by reference to other books in both the OT and the NT. Here we discover both the respect and realism of Sirach, as he remembers the great figures of the past, and see how the LORD used these for the benefit of all His people, until He came to be with us in the God-Man, and imparted His glory to all who believe, through the Holy Spirit.
In this episode we concentrate upon Sirach's treatment of Lady Wisdom in chapters 24 and 51, noticing significant links with the Psalms and prophets, with Jesus' own invitation to learn from Him, with Paul, and with the book of Revelation. The free offering of Wisdom and the mystery associated with it are both fulfilled in Christ.
Brendan Kennedy is the chief editor and translator of the Readable Bible. We discuss the process of translating the Bible and we look at specific verses, including Deut. 32.8 and Ps. 82.1 and how they relate to the divine council.
In this episode, we consider the overall richness of the Wisdom of Sirach, and then zero in on the Prologue, with chapters 1-2, seeing their major themes of wisdom and fear of the LORD, and helped in this by considering Job 38-40, Proverbs 9, James 1-3, and Ephesians 1-4.
We read the third and final section of Wisdom of Solomon (chapters 10-19), in which we hear of Wisdom's journeys with the Hebrew people, the power of the Word of God who joins earth and heaven, and the ever-present strength of the Holy Spirit to guide us on our journey. The section is clarified by reference especially to Romans 1 and 1 Corinthians 15.
This week we consider the central section of the Wisdom of Solomon, where Wisdom is pictured for us as a radiant woman, who both seeks us and is to be sought above all things. With the help of Romans 1 and 10-11, John 1, Hebrews 1, and various Church fathers, we understand her as pointing forward to the Son and the Holy Spirit, who make us friends of God.
In this episode we read the first section of Wisdom of Solomon (chapters 1-6), and understand its connection of righteousness and wisdom by means of Proverbs 8:8-18, 1 Cor 1:30-31, and the humble death of the God-Man for our sake.
We consider the exciting and curious book of Judith, paying attention to its genre, and its connections with the stories of Miriam, Jael (Judges 4), Rebecca (Gen 27), Tamar (Gen 38), Naomi and Ruth, and a passage about wisdom in 1 Corinthians. Judith gives us a pattern for humility and courage, even while we may have Christian questions regarding this story.
In this second reading of Tobit, we see its connection with Amos 8:10, Daniel 3:51-90, Revelation 21:18-21, and notice how the prophecies and prayers of the book both accompany its action, and speak in times of distress today.
This week we do an overview of the delightful story of Tobit, concentrating on its supporting characters, and stressing God's unexpected provisions for us on the natural level.
In this episode we read Esther 3:13a-g, 5:1-13 LXX, and 8:12a-I, considering the royal decrees of the king, the dramatic scene where Esther enters his presence without invitation, and the misinformation about the Jewish people which he finally rejects. We are helped in seeing the significance of these fascinating scenes by recourse to Psalm 85/6, Phil 2:5-11, and 1 Timothy 2:1-2

“What would the Bible look like if God spoke through Moses, David, and Paul today?”Today's guest got his idea while browsing an airport bookstore. He realized that all the nonfiction books were formatted differently from his Bible and he started thinking about what would make the Scriptures easier for modern readers to understand. And so, the Readable Bible came came to life. Its unique format reveals concepts in Scripture that you may never have noticed before.Find out more at readablebible.com.
This week we consider the structure of LXX Esther in general, and hone in on its introductory and concluding vision and Interpretation (,Esther 1:1a-1l; 10:3a-3k) which put the agency of God front and center for us to praise! We are helped by considering parallels and differences with Job 40-41; Daniel 1, 7-8, Luke 1:46-55, Rev. 12, and Psalm 15 LXX/16MT: 5-7.
This week we read the three episodes of Bel and the Dragon (found at the end of the book of Daniel), appreciating the story's ancient pedigree, its humor, and its sharp reminder to worship God alone. We are helped by comparing its words to Jeremiah 50:2 (LXX 27:2), Jeremiah 51:44 (LXX 28:44), Habakkuk 2:4, and 1 Cor 10:19-20.
This week we read the story of Susanna, found either in the prologue of Daniel or Daniel 13 (dependent upon the version used). Susanna is an excellent example of the charms and depth of the Readable Books, adding to doctrine and morals an appreciation for the domestic life and the spunkiness of its heroine, whose story is here analyzed with reference to Daniel 3:17-18, Romans 4, and Psalm 3:1-4.
In this episode, we enter into Daniel 3:51-90, in which the three youths give voice to the whole of creation, which praises God. We also wonder at the appearance of the glorious Man, who prefigures the humility and love of our Lord, descending to the depths to save us from death and sin ( 1 Peter 3:18-20). Listeners are encouraged to read the entire song, which is prominent in our Paschal liturgy and has been sung for centuries by the Church.
We read the rest of Azariah's prayer, followed by a short narrative, found in Daniel 3:37-50, with the help of Psalm 50/51 and Ezra (in the OSB, 2 Ezra) 8:71-87. Azariah's utter honesty and trust in the philanthropic LORD leads to God's answer—His presence with them in the furnace, as Azariah and his friends offer the fruit of their lips.
In this first episode of the series, we consider the Readable Books (aka Deuterocanonical, Apocryphal) in general, and how they are esteemed by Orthodox, and then read the poignant prayer of Azariah (Daniel 3:25-36), seeing it in the light of Genesis 15, Psalm 79, Romans 3:4, and Rev 16:7.

When Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 C.E., it covered the ancient cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum under tons of ash. Millennia later, in the mid-18th century, archeologists began to unearth the city, including its famed libraries, but the scrolls they found were too fragile to be unrolled and read; their contents were thought to be lost forever. Only now, thanks to the advent of artificial intelligence and machine learning, scholars of the ancient world have partnered with computer programmers to unlock the contents of these priceless documents. In this episode of “There's More to That,” science journalist and Smithsonian contributor Jo Marchant tells us about the yearslong campaign to read these scrolls. And Youssef Nader—one of the three winners of last year's “Vesuvius Challenge” to make these clumps of vulcanized ash readable—tells us how he and his teammates achieved their historic breakthrough.

Brittany Means is author of the critically acclaimed memoir, “Hell if We Don't Change Our Ways”. Reviews have called it “gut-wrenching and triumphant.” “Readable and rigorous.” “Brutal and beautiful.' At its heart, it is a book about family. as Means recounts her complex relationships with her mother, father, brother, and grandparents and eventual guardians. What does it mean when those closest to us hurt us? Is understanding or forgiveness even possible? How do children make it through it all to find support and love? This was a particularly moving discussion. I hope you find it of value.
