In this episode of Building Better Developers with AI, Rob Broadhead and Michael Meloche revisit a popular question: What Happens When Software Fails? Originally titled When Coffee Hits the Fan: Developer Disaster Recovery, this AI-enhanced breakdown explores real-world developer mistakes, recovery strategies, and the tools that help turn chaos into control. Whether you're managing your first deployment or juggling enterprise infrastructure, you'll leave this episode better equipped for the moment when software fails. When Software Fails and Everything Goes Down The podcast kicks off with a dramatic (but realistic) scenario: CI passes, coffee is in hand, and then production crashes. While that might sound extreme, it's a situation many developers recognize. Rob and Michael cover some familiar culprits: Dropping a production database Misconfigured cloud infrastructure costing hundreds overnight Accidentally publishing secret keys Over-provisioned “default” environments meant for enterprise use Takeaway: Software will fail. Being prepared is the difference between a disaster and a quick fix. Why Software Fails: Avoiding Costly Dev Mistakes Michael shares an all-too-common situation: connecting to the wrong environment and running production-breaking SQL. The issue wasn't the code—it was the context. Here are some best practices to avoid accidental failure: Color-code terminal environments (green for dev, red for prod) Disable auto-commit in production databases Always preview changes with a SELECT before running DELETE or UPDATE Back up databases or individual tables before making changes These simple habits can save hours—or days—of cleanup. How to Recover When Software Fails Rob and Michael outline a reliable recovery framework that works in any team or tech stack: Monitoring and alerts: Tools like Datadog, Prometheus, and Sentry help detect issues early Rollback plans: Scripts, snapshots, and container rebuilds should be ready to go Runbooks: Documented recovery steps prevent chaos during outages Postmortems: Blameless reviews help teams learn and improve Clear communication: Everyone on the team should know who's doing what during a crisis Pro Tip: Practice disaster scenarios ahead of time. Simulations help ensure you're truly ready. Essential Tools for Recovery Tools can make or break your ability to respond quickly when software fails. Rob and Michael recommend: Docker & Docker Compose for replicable environments Terraform & Ansible for consistent infrastructure GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins for automated testing and deployment Chaos Engineering tools like Gremlin and Chaos Monkey Snapshot and backup automation to enable fast data restoration Michael emphasizes: containers are the fastest way to spin up clean environments, test recovery steps, and isolate issues safely. Mindset Matters: Staying Calm When Software Fails Technical preparation is critical—but so is mindset. Rob notes that no one makes smart decisions in panic mode. Having a calm, repeatable process in place reduces pressure when systems go down. Cultural and team-based practices: Use blameless postmortems to normalize failure Avoid root access in production whenever possible Share mistakes in standups so others can learn Make local environments mirror production using containers Reminder: Recovery is a skill—one you should build just like any feature. Think you're ready for a failure scenario? Prove it. This week, simulate a software failure in your development environment: Turn off a service your app depends on Delete (then restore) a local database from backup Use Docker to rebuild your environment from scratch Trigger a mock alert in your monitoring tool Then answer these questions: How fast can you recover? What broke that you didn't expect? What would you do differently in production? Recovery isn't just theory—it's a skill you build through practice. Start now, while the stakes are low. Final Thought Software fails. That's a reality of modern development. But with the right tools, smart workflows, and a calm, prepared team, you can recover quickly—and even improve your system in the process. Learn from failure. Build with resilience. And next time something breaks, you'll know exactly what to do. Stay Connected: Join the Developreneur Community We invite you to join our community and share your coding journey with us.

Episode 60: Can you really build an $8 billion SaaS startup by yourself using AI agents? Nathan Lands (https://x.com/NathanLands) sits down with Matan Grinberg (https://x.com/matansf), a physicist, AI founder, and creator of Factory AI—one of Silicon Valley's best-kept secrets. Matan has published papers alongside luminaries and built a company trusted by top VCs and tech insiders. In this episode, Nathan and Matan dive deep into the power and practicality of Factory AI—an agentic software platform that allows anyone to build full-featured SaaS applications using only natural language. After years of focusing on large enterprise clients and remaining under the radar, Factory AI is now opening up to everyone and revealing what's possible when state-of-the-art “droids” (purpose-built AI agents) collaborate to automate the entire software development lifecycle. Watch them attempt to build a DocuSign competitor in minutes live on the show, and explore how AI is changing the future of engineering, entrepreneurship, and creative problem-solving.

Avengers assemble! In this episode, Shelby and Laura review Marvel's newest superhero movie--Thunderbolts* starring Florence Pugh, Sebastian Stan, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus. The 36th MCU film's marketing campaign promoted IMAX and A24 more than the actual movie, so we were curious to see how it all came together. We analyze the movie's surprising villain--Bob aka Sentry, mental health themes, and backstory plot holes.We dissect the film's lack of diverse casting and Ava Starr's minimal storylines, explain why there was too much homework needed to understand the film, highlight our favorite moments, like David Harbour's comedic timing as Alexei Shostakov, question why Bucky Barnes is a US Congressman, predict who will be in Sam Wilson's Avengers, and debate whether Valentina deserved to have a happy ending.

Episode #978 Ever feel like you've done everything “right” as a husband and provider—yet your marriage still feels off? That's exactly where Matt Euler found himself. In this REVISIT episode, we bring back a powerful conversation that's still just as relevant for high-achieving men today. Matt opens up about how chasing business success left him drained, disconnected, and dangerously close to losing his marriage. This is more than just a success story. It's a raw look at what happens when men ignore the early signs and keep grinding, hoping everything will somehow fix itself. Spoiler alert: it won't. In this episode, you'll hear how Matt went from burnout and panic attacks to reclaiming his marriage, his health, and his purpose. You'll learn what changed when he joined The Activation Method—and why he believes The Brotherhood gave him the deep male relationships he didn't know he was missing. We're revisiting this episode because Matt's story continues to resonate with men who feel alone, overworked, and unsure if they can pull their marriage back together. If that sounds like you—you're not alone, and this episode is for you.

This week we talk about the Marshall Plan, standardization, and USB.We also discuss artificial intelligence, Anthropic, and protocols.Recommended Book: Fuzz by Mary RoachTranscriptIn the wake of WWII, the US government implemented the European Recovery Program, more commonly known as the Marshall Plan, to help Western Europe recover from a conflict that had devastated the afflicted countries' populations, infrastructure, and economies.It kicked off in April of 1948, and though it was replaced by a successor program, the Mutual Security Act, just three years later in 1951—which was similar to the Marshall Plan, but which had a more militant, anti-communism bent, the idea being to keep the Soviets from expanding their influence across the continent and around the world—the general goal of both programs was similar: the US was in pretty good shape, post-war, and in fact by waiting to enter as long as it did, and by becoming the arsenal of the Allied side in the conflict, its economy was flourishing, its manufacturing base was all revved up and needed something to do with all the extra output capacity it had available, all the resources committed to producing hardware and food and so on, so by sharing these resources with allies, by basically just giving a bunch of money and assets and infrastructural necessities to these European governments, the US could get everybody on side, bulwarked against the Soviet Union's counterinfluence, at a moment in which these governments were otherwise prone to that influence; because they were suffering and weaker than usual, and thus, if the Soviets came in with the right offer, or with enough guns, they could conceivably grab a lot of support and even territory. So it was considered to be in everyone's best interest, those who wanted to keep the Soviet Union from expanding, at least, to get Europe back on its feet, posthaste.So this program, and its successor program, were highly influential during this period, and it's generally considered to be one of the better things the US government has done for the world, as while there were clear anti-Soviet incentives at play, it was also a relatively hands-off, large-scale give-away that favorably compared with the Soviets' more demanding and less generous version of the same.One interesting side effect of the Marshall Plan is that because US manufacturers were sending so much stuff to these foreign ports, their machines and screws and lumber used to rebuild entire cities across Europe, the types of machines and screws and lumber, which were the standard models of each in the US, but many of which were foreign to Europe at the time, became the de facto standard in some of these European cities, as well.Such standards aren't always the best of all possible options, sometimes they stick around long past their period of ideal utility, and they don't always stick, but the standards and protocols within an industry or technology do tend to shape that industry or technology's trajectory for decades into the future, as has been the case with many Marshall Plan-era US standards that rapidly spread around the world as a result of these giveaways.And standards and protocols are what I'd like to talk about today. In particular a new protocol that seems primed to shape the path today's AI tools are taking.—Today's artificial intelligence, or AI, which is an ill-defined type of software that generally refers to applications capable of doing vaguely human-like things, like producing text and images, but also somewhat superhuman things, like working with large data-sets and bringing meaning to them, are developing rapidly, becoming more potent and capable seemingly every day.This period of AI development has been in the works for decades, and the technologies required to make the current batch of generative AI tools—the type that makes stuff based on libraries of training data, deriving patterns from that data and then coming up with new stuff based on the prompting of human users—were originally developed in the 1970s, but the transformer, which was a fresh approach to what's called deep learning architectures, was first proposed in 2017 by a researcher at Google, and that led to the development of the generative pre-trained transformer, or GPT, in 2018.The average non-tech-world person probably started to hear about this generation of AI tools a few years later, maybe when the first transformer-based voice and image tools started popping up around the internet, mostly as novelties, or even more likely in late-2022 when OpenAI released the first version of ChatGPT, a generative AI system attached to a chatbot interface, which made these sorts of tools more accessible to the average person.Since then, there's been a wave of investment and interest in AI tools, and we've reached a point where the seemingly obvious next-step is removing humans from the loop in more AI-related processes.What that means in practice is that while today these tools require human prompting for most of what they do—you have to ask an AI for a specific image, then ask it to refine that image in order to customize it for your intended use-case, for instance—it's possible to have AI do more things on their own, working from broader instructions to refine their creations themselves over multiple steps and longer periods of time.So rather than chatting with an AI to come up with a marketing plan for your business, prompting it dozens or hundreds of times to refine the sales copy, the logo, the images for the website, the code for the website, and so on, you might tell an AI tool that you're building a business that does X and ask it to spin up all the assets that you need. From there, the AI might research what a new business in that industry requires, make all the assets you need for it, go back and tweak all those assets based on feedback from other AI tools, and then deploy those assets for you on web hosting services, social media accounts, and the like.It's possible that at some point these tools could become so capable in this regard that humans won't need to be involved at all, even for the initial ideation. You could ask an AI what sorts of businesses make sense at the moment, and tell it to build you a dozen minimum viable products for those businesses, and then ask it to run those businesses for you—completely hands off, except for the expressing your wishes part, almost like you're working with a digital genie.At the moment, components of that potential future are possible, but one of the main things standing in the way is that AI systems largely aren't agentic enough, which in this context means they need a lot of hand-holding for things that a human being would be capable of doing, but which they largely, with rare exceptions, aren't yet, and they often don't have the permission or ability to interact with other tools required to do that kind of building—and that includes things like the ability to create a business account on Shopify, but also the ability to access and handle money, which would be required to set up business and bank accounts, to receive money from customers, and so on.This is changing at a rapid pace, and more companies are making their offerings accessible to specific AI tools; Shopify has deployed its own cluster of internal AI systems, for instance, meant to manage various aspects of a business its customers perch on its platform.What's missing right now, though, is a unifying scaffolding that allows these services and assets and systems to all play nice with each other.And that's the issue the Model Context Protocol is meant to address.The Model Context Protocol, or MCP, is a standard developed by AI company Anthropic, and it's open and designed to be universal. The company intends for it to be the mycelium that connects large language model-based AI to all sorts of data and tools and other systems, a bit like the Hypertext Transfer Protocol, or HTTP, allows data on the web to be used and shared and processed, universally, in a standardized way, and to dip back into the world of physical objects, how standardized shipping containers make global trade a lot more efficient because everyone's working with the same sized boxes, cargo vessels, and so on.The Universal Serial Bus standard, usually shorthanded as USB, is also a good comparison here, as the USB was introduced to replaced a bunch of other standards in the early days of personal computing, which varied by computer maker, and which made it difficult for those makers, plus those who developed accessories, to make their products accessible and inexpensive for end-users, as you might buy a mouse that doesn't work with your specific computer hardware, or you might have a cable that fits in the hole on your computer, but doesn't send the right amount of data, or provide the power you need.USB standards ensured that all devices had the same holes, and that a certain basic level of data and power transmission would be available. And while this standard has since fractured a bit, a period of many different types of USB leading to a lot of confusion, and the deployment of the USB C standard simplying things somewhat, but still being a bit confounding at times, as the same shaped plug may carry different amounts of data and power, despite all that, it has still made things a lot easier for both consumers and producers of electronic goods, as there are fewer plugs and charger types to purchase, and thus less waste, confusion, and so on. We've moved on from the wild west era of computer hardware connectivity into something less varied and thus, more predictable and interoperable.The MCP, if it's successful, could go on to be something like the USB standard in that it would serve as a universal connector between various AI systems and all the things you might want those AI systems to access and use.That might mean you want one of Anthropic's AI systems to build you a business, without you having to do much or anything at all, and it may be capable of doing so, asking you questions along the way if it requires more clarity or additional permissiosn—to open a bank account in your name, for instance—but otherwise acting more agentically, as intended, even to the point that it could run social media accounts, work with manufacturers of the goods you sell, and handle customer service inquiries on your behalf.What makes this standard a standout compared to other options, though—and there are many other proposed options, right now, as this space is still kind of a wild west—is that though it was developed by Anthropic, which originally made it to work with its Claude family of AI tools, it has since also been adopted by OpenAI, Google DeepMind, and several of the other largest players in the AI world.That means, although there are other options here, all with their own pros and cons, as was the case with USB compared to other connection options back in the day, MCP is usable with many of the biggest and most spendy and powerful entities in the AI world, right now, and that gives it a sort of credibility and gravity that the other standards don't currently enjoy.This standard is also rapidly being adopted by companies like Block, Apollo, PayPal, CloudFlare, Asana, Plaid, and Sentry, among many, many others—including other connectors, like Zapier, which basically allows stuff to connect to other stuff, further broadening the capacity of AI tools that adopt this standard.While this isn't a done deal, then, there's a good chance that MCP will be the first big connective, near-universal standard in this space, which in turn means many of the next-step moves and tools in this space will need to work with it, in order to gain adoption and flourish, and that means, like the standards spread around the world by the Marshall Plan, it will go on to shape the look and feel and capabilities, including the limitations, of future AI tools and scaffoldings.Show Noteshttps://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2025/04/mcp-the-new-usb-c-for-ai-thats-bringing-fierce-rivals-together/https://blog.cloudflare.com/remote-model-context-protocol-servers-mcp/https://oldvcr.blogspot.com/2025/05/what-went-wrong-with-wireless-usb.htmlhttps://arxiv.org/html/2504.16736v2https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_Context_Protocol#cite_note-anthropic_mcp-1https://github.com/modelcontextprotocolhttps://www.anthropic.com/news/integrationshttps://www.theverge.com/2024/11/25/24305774/anthropic-model-context-protocol-data-sourceshttps://beebom.com/model-context-protocol-mcp-explained/https://techcrunch.com/2025/03/26/openai-adopts-rival-anthropics-standard-for-connecting-ai-models-to-data/https://techcrunch.com/2025/04/09/google-says-itll-embrace-anthropics-standard-for-connecting-ai-models-to-data/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generative_artificial_intelligencehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USBhttps://www.archives.gov/milestone-documents/marshall-planhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marshall_Planhttps://www.congress.gov/crs-product/R45079https://www.ebsco.com/research-starters/history/marshall-planhttps://www.history.com/articles/marshall-plan This is a public episode.
