Podcasts about software engineers

If you're a software engineer right now, you likely feel like your world is changing overnight. We are writing half or less the amount of code that we wrote even a year ago, which represents a seismic, groundbreaking shift in our industry. However, the rapid introduction of new tools can slide quickly from exciting to purely chaotic, leaving you feeling like you are falling behind. In today's episode, I explore how this changes the nature of our day-to-day work, and why the key to surviving this transition is shifting your mindset from a traditional "Software Engineer" to an "Agent Manager". The Illusion of Velocity vs. Actual Chaos: While the big-picture promise of AI is that the software development pipeline will move exponentially faster, the reality on the ground often feels like unadulterated chaos. Trying to adopt every new tool while spinning up multiple agents to work on parallel tickets introduces a massive new cognitive burden. The Context-Switching Trap: Understand why parallelizing agent workflows fundamentally changes your context-switching overhead. You are no longer just reloading context to build something yourself; you are reloading it to manage, review, and validate a building agent, which rapidly drains your cognitive ability and leads to burnout. The "Agent Manager" Mindset: Treating AI as just a "smart autocomplete" while you try to do the same old job will not work. You need to start viewing your role more like assembly line or process management, focusing on facilitating the system rather than typing every line of syntax. Adopt Old-School Quality Control Tactics: Discover how traditional management methods are becoming essential for individual contributors. Just like a factory manager doesn't inspect every single item off the line, you must develop methods for spot checks, anomaly detection, and standardizing outputs to evaluate the quality and quantity of your agents' work. Shift Your Work Upfront: Recognize that your core effort must move to the specification and planning phases. Your job is increasingly about setting the context, defining the prompt, and establishing strict guardrails before the agent begins its work. Redefining Your Work in Progress (WIP): Proven principles like limiting WIP and focusing on finishing rather than starting are more important than ever to reduce cognitive burden. However, you must adapt these principles to fit a workflow where you are managing processes rather than manually coding. Episode Homework: Take a step back and ask yourself: "What is my true work in progress? Am I actually manually doing these tickets, or am I managing the processes that produce quality ticket work?".

This week the squad breaks down the Anthropic vs OpenAI drama (Fire Sam Altman is trending again), debates whether Apple is quietly winning the AI race by spending $0 while everyone else burns $100 billion, and confronts the question no one in Silicon Valley wants to answer: why aren't 200,000 software engineers talking about losing their jobs? Sam's answer: "Because it would be to admit you're in the 200,000 getting fired, not the 200,000 getting paid more." Plus: is China winning the open source AI phenomenon, is a recession coming (Lux Capital thinks so), and how Sam believes “code is just content” despite having built six apps in a week while on conference calls, including an AI clone of the podcast using everyone's real voices.

Woodson Martin, CEO ofOutSystems, argues that successful enterprise AI deployments rarely rely on standalone agents. Instead, production systems combine AI agents with data, workflows, APIs, applications, and human oversight. While claims that “95% of agent pilots fail” are common, Martin suggests many of those pilots were simply low-commitment experiments made possible by the low cost of testing AI. Enterprises that succeed typically keep humans in the loop, at least initially, to review recommendations and maintain control over decisions. Current enterprise use cases for agents include document processing, decision support, and personalized outputs. When integrated into broader systems, these applications can deliver measurable productivity gains. For example,Travel Essencebuilt an agentic system that reduced a two-hour customer planning process to three minutes, allowing staff to focus more on sales and helping drive 20% top-line growth. Martin also believes AI will pressure traditional SaaS seat-based pricing and accelerate custom software development. In this environment, governed platforms like OutSystems can help enterprises adopt “vibe coding” while maintaining compliance, security, and lifecycle management.

We are excited to welcome a friend of the show, Brent Sullivan of The Tax Alpha Insider. We discuss all things Tax Alpha as the investment puzzle is different when it comes to taxable investors. I have been fortunate to have known Brent since the very beginnings of his Tax Alpha Insider Newsletter, a highly successful, focused publication in the wealth management space. I often say that he could become the Michael Kitces of Tax Alpha. Brent is also behind the first Tax Alpha Conference, Basis Northwest, in Seattle on May 28th and 29th, which I will be attending. Brent has an interesting career background, both corporate and entrepreneurial. As mentioned before, he is the Founder of The Tax Alpha Insider, as well as the Basis Northwest Conference. He was also a Software Engineer at Parametric, who is the godfather of direct indexing. Before that, he worked in Investment Banking and Asset Management. Brent holds a Masters of Engineering from Cornell University (Financial Engineering/Statistics), as well as a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics from the University of California, Riverside. In this episode, we discuss all things Tax Alpha, as this is our first interview with Brent. We talk about the reasons he decided to launch this, why Tax Alpha is important now, and how this is one of the best times in history to be a taxable investor with all of the tools available. We discuss everything from householding/asset location, to direct indexing, to tax-aware long-short, buffer ETF's, 351 exchanges, advisor launched ETF's, assets that shouldn't be used for taxable investors, collars/variable prepaid forward contracts, heartbeat trades/ETF share classes, box loans, tax alpha as a volatility buffer, trader funds, etc. We also discuss the impact of AI on advisors and taxable investing, as well as taking the other side, why not just pay the taxes and keep things simple. Today's hosts are Steve Curley, CFA (Co-Managing Principal, 55 North Private Wealth) & co-host Chris Cannon, CFA (CIO/Principal, FirsTrust). Please enjoy the episode.

In this conversation, I sit down with Tim Delisle and Chris Crane, co-founders of 514, to discuss bridging the gap between software development and data engineering. We cover their experience leading global data engineering at Nike and why software teams are increasingly taking ownership of heavy analytical workloads.We also dive into how they are building the Moose Stack to give developers a local-first, code-first analytics experience. Finally, we explore how AI co-pilots are acting like an "army of interns" to fundamentally change how we write code , and why the "personal data lake" might be the future of privacy and local compute.Check out 514 & The Moose Stack: https://www.fiveonefour.com/

I'm not stressed by AI itself. I'm stressed by the insatiable greed of those who profit from it, even if it means sacrificing large parts of the population. I'm also stressed about how ruthlessly it can be abused to cause deliberate harm.In this episode I'm not taking you into world of fire science, but rather into my own thoughts on how the AI revolution influences our lives. And I was influenced it just last week - through a phishing attack on the IAFSS, and through reading a very disturbing piece of fiction I found on the Internet...In the episode I comment on the targeted phishing attack against our association that used well-researched details and a cloned voice pulled from public audio. From there, we step into a stark forecast of near-term AI disruption in white-collar work. Agent teams can already write, review, and ship production code in loops, compressing time and cost while jolting stock prices across entire sectors the moment capabilities drop. Then we get specific about our field. Some tasks in fire safety are ripe for automation—code interpretation, routine calculations, device placement, and documentation—where speed and consistency help. But holistic fire strategy is contextual and slow to validate, with scarce, standardized case data and long feedback loops. Buildings are messy, multidisciplinary systems; that friction is a temporary moat against full automation. The larger risk may be macroeconomic: if AI compresses demand and margins across white-collar industries, construction cools, and safety work gets squeezed. Paradoxically, low digitalization in construction buys time, making it harder to train and deploy one-size-fits-all models.I'm still to large extent positive Fire Safety Engineering won't be directly disrupted at the same scale as Software Engineers got, but as a part of a larger ecosystem we won't be untouched either... I hope the version of the future that plays out is more optimistic than the one I got worried about.Read the Citrini piece here, if you have not yet: https://www.citriniresearch.com/p/2028gic----The Fire Science Show is produced by the Fire Science Media in collaboration with OFR Consultants.

The difference between a junior and a senior engineer isn't coding speed, it's knowing when to say "no.""The best code you can write is the code you don't write." In this episode, I sit down with Alessandro Mautone (Senior Software Engineer at Aquablu, ex-WeTransfer) to discuss the reality of engineering at a scale-up: how do you maintain technical excellence when the business demands speed?We break down why delivering features "fast" pays your salary, but how to negotiate deadlines so you don't drown in technical debt later. If you want to move from writing code to owning product decisions, this conversation is for you.In this episode, we cover:- How to push back on features and negotiate deadlines without upsetting stakeholders- Why chasing "perfect code" can hurt a company in growth mode- The Generalist vs. Specialist career path: Which one is right for you?- The potential pitfalls of using AI for unit tests without proper oversightTimestamps:00:00:00 - Intro00:01:06 - Balancing Technical Excellence With Delivery Speed00:04:11 - Why Delivering Features Pays Your Salary00:06:51 - The Importance of Ownership and "Skin in the Game"00:08:59 - Leaving WeTransfer: When Company Direction Shifts00:11:49 - The Generalist vs. Specialist Career Path Debate00:16:46 - How to Attract Top Engineering Talent to Your Team00:18:50 - Is LeetCode the Right Way to Hire for Scale-Ups?00:23:16 - Learning to "Say No" is a Sign of Seniority00:25:17 - Negotiating Scope Without Burning Bridges00:26:02 - When AI Generates Bad Unit Tests00:28:14 - Never Compromise on Tests, Even in "Code Red"00:33:59 - Communicating Technical Concepts to Non-Tech Stakeholders00:35:35 - The Never-Ending Battle Against Complexity00:37:26 - When to Build for the Future vs. Ship Now00:42:30 - A Real-World Example of Refactoring for Simplicity00:46:48 - The Skill That Will Be Make or Break for Engineers#SoftwareEngineering #ScaleUp #TechnicalDebt

OnThe New Stack Agents, Gavriel Cohen discusses why he built NanoClaw, a minimalist alternative to OpenClaw, after discovering security and architectural flaws in the rapidly growing agentic framework. Cohen, co-founder of AI marketing agencyQwibit, had been running agents across operations, sales, and research usingClaude Code. When Clawdbot (laterOpenClaw) launched, it initially seemed ideal. But Cohen grew concerned after noticing questionable dependencies—including his own outdated GitHub package—excessive WhatsApp data storage, a massive AI-generated codebase nearing 400,000 lines, and a lack of OS-level isolation between agents. In response, he createdNanoClawwith radical minimalism: only a few hundred core lines, minimal dependencies, and containerized agents. Built around Claude Code “skills,” NanoClaw enables modular, build-time integrations while keeping the runtime small enough to audit easily. Cohen argues AI changes coding norms—favoring duplication over DRY, relaxing strict file limits, and treating code as disposable. His goal is simple, secure infrastructure that enterprises can fully understand and trust.   Learn more from The New Stack about the latest around personal AI agents Anthropic: You can still use your Claude accounts to run OpenClaw, NanoClaw and Co.

A few weeks after Dynatrace acquired DevCycle, Michael Beemer and Andrew Norris discussed on The New Stack Makers podcast how feature flagging is becoming a critical safeguard in the AI era. By integrating DevCycle's feature flagging into the Dynatrace observability platform, the combined solution delivers a “360-degree view” of software performance at the feature level. This closes a key visibility gap, enabling teams to see exactly how individual features affect systems in production. As “agentic development” accelerates—where AI agents rapidly generate code—feature flags act as a safety net. They allow teams to test, control, and roll back AI-generated changes in live environments, keeping a human in the loop before full releases. This reduces risk while speeding enterprise adoption of AI tools. The discussion also highlighted support for the Cloud Native Computing Foundation's OpenFeature standard to avoid vendor lock-in. Ultimately, developers are evolving into “conductors,” orchestrating AI agents with feature flags as their baton.   Learn more from The New Stack about the latest around AI enterprise development:  Why You Can't Build AI Without Progressive Delivery  Beyond automation: Dynatrace unveils agentic AI that fixes problems on its own  Join our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.   

I've been delaying this episode for a long time because the topic is genuinely difficult and, for many of us, scary. AI is threatening not just to our livelihood, but to our sense of self-worth as creators.In this episode, I don't offer false guarantees about job security. Instead, I frame the problem through the lens of microeconomics and rational incentives to help you understand how to remain employable. We discuss why you must separate your ego from your current skill set and how to position yourself not as a competitor to AI, but as a force multiplier.• The Hard Truth: I explain why the "abstinence" approach—hoping the industry rejects AI or that it turns out to be a bubble—is a high-risk gamble that is unlikely to succeed.• Ego vs. Employability: We discuss the difficult mental shift required to disconnect your self-worth from the act of writing code manually, allowing you to adopt new tools without feeling like you are losing your identity.• The Microeconomics of Your Job: Understand the cold reality that a rational market only pays you if you generate more value than you cost; if AI can do the same task with less risk or cost, the market will choose AI.• The Non-Zero Sum Game: Learn why the economy isn't a fixed pie. The goal isn't just to survive, but to recognize that the combination of Human + AI can generate more total value than either can alone.• Multiplicative Value: I challenge you to stop thinking about linear skill acquisition and start thinking like a manager: how can you use AI to multiply your output and become indispensable?• Accepting Atrophy: We confront the reality that your core coding skills may degrade over time as you rely on AI, and why accepting this trade-off might be necessary for your career survival.

We are at a unique point in history where there is finally an alternative to human coding. If AI can write the code effectively, what is left for the software engineer?In this episode, Joris Conijn (AWS CTO at Xebia) argues that the era of "just coding" is over. We discuss why senior developers are safe (for now), why juniors are at risk of never learning the fundamentals, and how "Shadow AI" is forcing companies to change their security strategies.Most importantly, we break down the difference between a "Programmer" and a "Software Engineer" with the introduction of agentic tools. If you want to future-proof your career and move from writing lines of code to designing systems, this conversation is for you.In this episode, we cover:Why banning AI at work actually increases your security riskHow to use AI to automate the boring parts of the SDLC (requirements & user stories)The critical difference between "Coding" and "System Architecture"Why you should check your AI Agents into your Git repositoryThe 20-year problem: what happens when engineers never learn the fundamentals?Connect with Joris Conijn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/jorisconijnTIMESTAMPS00:00:00 - Intro 00:01:11 - What Keeps a CTO Excited About Tech? 00:02:58 - Stop Being the "Department of No" in Security 00:05:28 - The Real Risk of Banning AI at Work 00:06:32 - When Developers Hold the Organization Hostage 00:08:14 - The Hidden Dangers of Instant AI Code Fixes 00:09:50 - Will Future Devs Understand Object Oriented Programming? 00:11:36 - Using AI to Accelerate Learning vs Copy-Pasting 00:13:17 - Why Testing Matters More When AI Writes Code 00:16:42 - Automating the Boring Parts of the SDLC 00:19:06 - How to Turn Meeting Transcripts into User Stories 00:21:36 - The Critical Skill of Making Implicit Knowledge Explicit 00:23:10 - Why You Should Stop Obsessing Over Story Points 00:27:46 - The "A-Team" Approach to High-Trust Development 00:29:54 - Running Parallel Workflows with AI Agents 00:33:34 - Pro Tip: Check Your AI Agents into Git 00:35:52 - Balancing Autonomy and Governance in Large Teams 00:39:19 - There Is Finally an Alternative to Human Coders 00:41:07 - Programmer vs Software Engineer: What is the Difference? 00:44:45 - How to Teach Software Engineering in the AI Era#SoftwareEngineering #SystemDesign #AIAgents

In this episode, we sit down with Joel Plotnik, the longtime drummer for Phil Wickham. Joel shares his incredible journey from the early days of youth group to playing on the biggest worship stages in the world. We dive deep into the realities of being a "hired gun" in Los Angeles, why he decided to pursue a career in software engineering while still touring, and how to maintain a heart of humility when the spotlight is on you.

Dynatrace is at a pivotal point, expanding beyond traditional observability into a platform designed for autonomous operations and security powered by agentic AI. In an interview on *The New Stack Makers*, recorded at the Dynatrace Perform conference, Chief Technology Strategist Alois Reitbauer discussed his vision for AI-managed production environments. The conversation followed Dynatrace's acquisition of DevCycle, a feature-management platform. Reitbauer highlighted feature flags—long used in software development—as a critical safety mechanism in the age of agentic AI. Rather than allowing AI agents to rewrite and deploy code, Dynatrace envisions them operating within guardrails by adjusting configuration settings through feature flags. This approach limits risk while enabling faster, automated decision-making. Customers, Reitbauer noted, are increasingly comfortable with AI handling defined tasks under constraints, but not with agents making sweeping, unsupervised changes. By combining AI with controlled configuration tools, Dynatrace aims to create a safer path toward truly autonomous operations. Learn more from The New Stack about the latest in progressive delivery: Why You Can't Build AI Without Progressive Delivery Continuous Delivery: Gold Standard for Software Development Join our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

If you've ever shipped fast only to realize no one wanted what you built, you've felt the tension behind balancing building and feedback. As developers, we're trained to execute against known requirements. As soon as you step into product ownership, consulting, or entrepreneurship, those guardrails disappear. Now you have to decide what to build, who it's for, and why it matters—while still making forward progress. Get it wrong, and you either drown in feedback or disappear into code. Get it right, and you create steady momentum without wasting effort. This interview continues our discussion with Tyler Dane as we break down a practical, repeatable system for balancing building and feedback so you can keep shipping and stay aligned with real customer needs. About Tyler Dane Tyler Dane has dedicated his career to helping people better manage—and truly appreciate—their time. After working as a full-time Software Engineer, Tyler recently stepped away from traditional employment to focus entirely on building Compass Calendar, a productivity app designed to help everyday users visualize and plan their day more intentionally. The tool is built from firsthand experience, not theory—shaped by years of experimenting with productivity systems, tools, and workflows. In a bold reset, Tyler sold most of his belongings and relocated to San Francisco to focus on growing the product, collaborating with partners, and pushing Compass forward. Outside of coding, Tyler creates YouTube videos and writes about time management and productivity. After consuming countless productivity books, tools, and frameworks, he realized a common trap: doing more without actually accomplishing what matters. That insight led him to break productivity down into its most practical, nuanced components—cutting through hustle culture noise to focus on systems that actually work. Tyler is unapologetically honest and independent. With no investors, no sponsors, and nothing to sell beyond the value of his work, his focus is simple: help people get more done—and appreciate the limited time they have to do it. Follow Tyler on LinkedIn, YouTube, and X. Balancing building and feedback starts with a clear v1 The biggest cause of wasted effort isn't bad code—it's unclear scope. A clear v1 isn't a long feature list; it's a decision about which problem you are solving first. When v1 is defined, feedback becomes directional instead of distracting. You can evaluate every request with a simple question: Does this help solve the v1 problem? If the answer is no, it goes into a parking lot—not the backlog. Without that clarity, every conversation feels urgent, and every idea feels equally important. Balancing building and feedback by timeboxing your week Unstructured time leads to extremes. One week becomes all coding. The next becomes all conversations. Neither works for long. Timeboxing forces balance by design. Decide when you build and when you listen—and protect those blocks like production systems. This removes decision fatigue and prevents emotional swings based on the latest conversation. The Weekly Balance Blueprint Pick a structure: daily outreach blocks or one dedicated feedback day Convert feedback into next-week priorities instead of mid-week pivots Consistency matters more than perfection. Balancing building and feedback with daily "business refocus" blocks Short check-ins keep you out of the weeds. Spend 10–15 minutes at the start and end of your day to reconnect with the business context. Ask yourself: Who is this for? What problem am I solving? What actually moved the product forward today? These moments prevent scope creep and help you code with intent instead of habit. Balancing building and feedback using personal sprints Personal sprints introduce rhythm. Two- or three-week cycles work well because they're long enough to produce meaningful output and short enough to adjust course. Each sprint should include: Focused build time Planned feedback windows Explicit integration of what you learned This keeps learning and execution tightly coupled, rather than competing for attention. Balancing building and feedback through problem-first customer research Feedback becomes overwhelming when you ask the wrong questions. Feature requests are noisy. Problems are signals. Focus conversations on how people experience the problem today, what frustrates them, and what "better" looks like. This approach surfaces patterns instead of opinions. Problem-First Customer Conversations Ask about pains, workarounds, and desired outcomes Use "not our customer" signals to narrow your focus Clarity often comes from who you don't build for. Balancing building and feedback to prevent feature overload Not all feedback belongs in your product. Filtering input is a leadership skill. Use your v1 definition and target customer as a lens. Some ideas are valuable later. Some indicate a different market entirely. Saying "no" protects your momentum and your sanity. Balancing building and feedback by turning conversations into messaging Customer conversations don't just shape the product—they shape how you talk about it. The language people use to describe their pain becomes your marketing copy. When your messaging mirrors real problems, alignment improves across sales, onboarding, and product decisions. Balancing building and feedback with journaling to spot patterns Writing creates distance. Distance creates clarity. A lightweight journaling habit helps you spot repeated mistakes, drifting priorities, and false assumptions before they become expensive. Over time, patterns become impossible to ignore. The Founder Feedback Journal Capture decisions, assumptions, and outcomes daily Review monthly to identify drift and reset priorities It's one of the simplest tools with the highest long-term ROI. Conclusion Balancing building and feedback isn't about splitting your time evenly—it's about building a system that keeps you moving forward without losing direction. Clear scope, protected time, intentional feedback loops, and honest reflection create momentum that compounds. Start small. Adjust deliberately. And remember: progress comes from building the right things, not just building faster.

At ITEXPO / MSP EXPO, Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, spoke with Tejas Patel, Software Engineer at Amazon, for a technical deep dive into how one of the world's largest platforms manages scale, reliability, and the growing role of AI in operations. Amazon operates in an environment defined by extreme traffic variability—from daily fluctuations to massive surges during Prime events. Patel explained that the company relies on distributed systems and microservices architecture to scale every layer of the stack, including databases, caching layers, and application servers. “We scale everything at a massive scale,” he noted, adding that AI-driven traffic prediction models help prepare systems for anticipated spikes, ensuring elasticity and resilience under pressure. Even with rigorous lower-environment testing and simulated traffic, real-world production environments introduce unpredictable behaviors. When outages or functional errors occur, the first priority is customer impact mitigation. “The short-term goal is to make our functionalities available for customers as soon as possible,” Patel said. After stabilizing services, engineering teams conduct root cause analysis and implement long-term fixes to prevent recurrence. On-call teams remain a core part of this model, though that may evolve. AI is increasingly part of that evolution. Patel described how AI systems can detect latency drops, identify anomalies, trigger workflows, and begin root cause investigations—sometimes before engineers are alerted. While still in a supervised phase, AI is gradually moving from passive support to more autonomous operational roles. “AI has a lot of protocols built where it can talk to all the systems,” he explained, envisioning a future where AI mitigates issues proactively while engineers oversee the broader architecture. For MSPs and channel professionals looking to understand large-scale technology environments, Patel emphasized the foundational importance of distributed systems. “Distributed system is everywhere,” he said. “It's the backbone of a large-scale product.” As AI models and inference platforms continue to expand globally, scalable distributed infrastructure will remain essential to delivering reliable, uninterrupted user experiences.

Matan-Paul Shetrit, Director of Product Management at Writer, argues that people must take responsibility for how they use AI. If someone produces poor-quality output, he says, the blame lies with the user—not the tool. He believes many misunderstand AI's role, confusing its ability to accelerate work with an abdication of accountability. Speaking on The New Stack Agents podcast, Shetrit emphasized that “we're all becoming editors,” meaning professionals increasingly review and refine AI-generated content rather than create everything from scratch. However, ultimate responsibility remains human. If an AI-generated presentation contains errors, the presenter—not the AI—is accountable. Shetrit also discussed the evolving AI landscape, contrasting massive general-purpose models from companies like OpenAI and Google with smaller, specialized models. At Writer, the focus is on enabling enterprise-scale AI adoption by reducing costs, improving accuracy, and increasing speed. He argues that bespoke, narrowly focused models tailored to specific use cases are essential for delivering reliable, cost-effective AI solutions at scale. Learn more from The New Stack about the latest around enterprise development: Why Pure AI Coding Won't Work for Enterprise Software How To Use Vibe Coding Safely in the Enterprise Join our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Send a textThis week on The Route to Networking podcast, Antonio is joined by Paul Chu, an AI software engineer and Master's student at ENS Paris-Saclay, whose journey has taken him from France's competitive engineering system to research labs at Stanford and the heart of the Bay Area tech ecosystem.At a time when AI is moving faster than ever, it's refreshing to hear from someone breaking into the industry right now. Paul offers a real-time perspective on what it actually takes to get started, stand out, and build momentum in such a competitive space.From securing a $15,000 research grant to auditing lectures from Andrew Ng, Paul shares how he positioned himself without a traditional research background and why curiosity and adaptability mattered more than credentials.He reflects on winning his first major hackathon in San Francisco, joining robotics projects outside his comfort zone, and how high-pressure environments accelerated both his technical ability and confidence. The conversation also explores the differences between the Paris and San Francisco tech scenes, networking as an introvert, documenting his journey on YouTube, and why AI should be seen as an enabler rather than a shortcut.The episode concludes with a quick-fire round covering large language models, career-defining moments, stepping into uncomfortable rooms, and the mindset required to grow in the AI frontier.

Customer feedback for developers is one of the fastest ways to improve a product—and one of the easiest ways to derail it. When you're building something you care about, every comment feels important. The challenge is learning how to listen without letting feedback pull you in ten different directions. This episode explores how developers can use customer feedback to sharpen focus, avoid scope creep, and move faster—without losing the original vision that made the product worth building in the first place. About Tyler Dane Tyler Dane has dedicated his career to helping people better manage—and truly appreciate—their time. After working as a full-time Software Engineer, Tyler recently stepped away from traditional employment to focus entirely on building Compass Calendar, a productivity app designed to help everyday users visualize and plan their day more intentionally.

Follow Tyler on LinkedIn, YouTube, and X. Customer feedback for developers: Why "this is great, but…" matters Most useful feedback doesn't sound negative at first. It usually starts with, "This is great, but…" That "but" is where the signal lives. For developers, the mistake isn't ignoring feedback—it's stopping at the compliment. The real value is understanding what's missing, confusing, or blocking progress. Teams that grow fastest learn to treat that follow-up as actionable data, not criticism. The "This Is Great, But…" Checklist Capture the "but" immediately before it gets softened or forgotten Translate it into a concrete problem statement you can validate Customer feedback for developers: how to find the right people to talk to Not all feedback is equal. Talking to the wrong audience can send you down expensive paths that don't actually improve your product. Customer feedback for developers works best when it comes from people who: Actively experience the problem you're solving Would realistically adopt or pay for your solution Share similar workflows and constraints Broad feedback feels productive but often leads to vague changes. Focused conversations lead to clarity. Customer feedback for developers: filtering input to prevent scope creep Scope creep rarely starts with bad intent. It starts with trying to please everyone. The fix isn't saying "no" to customers—it's filtering feedback through a clear lens: Does this solve the core problem? Does this help our ideal user? Does this move the product forward right now? Avoid Scope Creep Without Ignoring Customers Separate "interesting ideas" from "next priorities." Keep a backlog for later so good ideas don't hijack today's focus Customer feedback for developers: balancing vision with real user needs Strong products sit at the intersection of vision and reality. If you only follow feedback, you become reactive. If you ignore it, you risk building in isolation. Customer feedback for developers should challenge assumptions—not erase direction. The goal is refinement, not reinvention, with every conversation. Customer feedback for developers: building momentum with faster shipping One consistent theme is speed. Slow feedback loops kill momentum. Shipping faster—even in small increments—creates learning. Fast cycles: Reveal what actually matters Improve judgment over time Reduce emotional attachment to individual decisions Build Momentum With Speed and Structure Short shipping cycles reduce overthinking Volume creates clarity faster than perfect planning Customer feedback for developers: choosing a niche in a crowded market General tools struggle in saturated spaces. Customer feedback for developers becomes clearer when you narrow your audience. Niching down doesn't limit opportunity—it increases relevance. How to position against "feature-parity" giants You don't win by copying large platforms. You win by serving a specific workflow better than anyone else. Self-direction when you don't have a manager Without an external structure, prioritization becomes your job. Customer feedback replaces task assignments—but only if you actively use it to set direction. Clear priorities beat unlimited freedom. Conclusion Customer feedback for developers isn't about collecting opinions—it's about building judgment. When you listen to the right people, filter ruthlessly, and ship quickly, feedback becomes a growth engine instead of a distraction. If you're building something of your own, treat feedback as fuel—not a steering wheel.

AI coding assistants are boosting developer productivity, but most enterprises aren't shipping software any faster. GitLab CEO Bill Staples says the reason is simple: coding was never the main bottleneck. After speaking with more than 60 customers, Staples found that developers spend only 10–20% of their time writing code. The remaining 80–90% is consumed by reviews, CI/CD pipelines, security scans, compliance checks, and deployment—areas that remain largely unautomated. Faster code generation only worsens downstream queues.GitLab's response is its newly GA'ed Duo Agent Platform, designed to automate the full software development lifecycle. The platform introduces “agent flows,” multi-step orchestrations that can take work from issue creation through merge requests, testing, and validation. Staples argues that context is the key differentiator. Unlike standalone coding tools that only see local code, GitLab's all-in-one platform gives agents access to issues, epics, pipeline history, security data, and more through a unified knowledge graph.Staples believes this platform approach, rather than fragmented point solutions, is what will finally unlock enterprise software delivery at scale. Learn more from The New Stack about the latest around GitLab and AI: GitLab Launches Its AI Agent Platform in Public BetaGitLab's Field CTO Predicts: When DevSecOps Meets AIJoin our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.

South East Technological University's (SETU) sixth annual Women in Technology event will bring together role models from industry and academia to challenge perceptions of technology and encourage more young women to consider careers in the sector. The event at SETU Arena in Waterford, on Thursday, 12 March, aims to grow young women's understanding of technology and demonstrate the career paths open to them in computing. Building on the success of last year's event, which welcomed over 1,000 female students from Cork, Tipperary, Kilkenny, Wexford, and Waterford, this year's programme promises to be more engaging than ever. Attendees will hear from inspirational keynote speakers who are leading the way in technology. These include Phil Healy, a two-time Irish Olympian who has successfully combined elite sport with a career as a Software Developer at Sun Life, and Likhitha Gaddi, a Software Engineer at Google. Alongside the keynote talks, the event, sponsored by Sun Life, Google, Security Risk Advisors and Nearform, will feature exhibition stands from some of the region's largest technology companies. Students will have the opportunity to interact directly with professionals working in technology, engineering, ICT, and software development, gaining insight into real-world career pathways. Amanda Freeman-Gater, Assistant Head of the Computing and Mathematics Department at SETU, believes that encouraging more women into technology is essential for the future of the sector. "The technology industry needs more women studying the wide range of technological programmes available, including those at SETU," said Ms Freeman-Gater, "Graduates can go on to build careers in dynamic technical roles that offer flexibility and the chance to work collaboratively on innovative ideas, services, and products." While there has been a recent shortfall in the number of women entering technology fields, this was not always the case, she adds. "Ada Lovelace is widely recognised as the world's first computer programmer. We must now focus on developing the next generation of female tech talent to create a more balanced and inclusive workforce. Women make up half the world's population, so it is only logical they should make up half the workforce in technology." SETU's Women in Technology event is open to second-level and third-level female students and teachers. The event will feature exhibitions, technology demonstrations, industry speakers, and information on SETU's wide range of third-level programmes, which provide pathways to exciting and rewarding careers in technology. Schools that register for SETU's Women in Technology event at SETU | Women in Technology 2026 will be entered into a draw to win a free bus to the event, while attendees will also be in with a chance to win one of six laptops.

Sean O'Dell of Dynatrace argues that enterprises are unprepared for a major shift brought on by AI: the rise of the developer. Speaking at Dynatrace Perform in Las Vegas, O'Dell explains that AI-assisted and “vibe” coding are collapsing traditional boundaries in software development. Developers, once insulated from production by layers of operations and governance, are now regaining end-to-end ownership of the entire software lifecycle — from development and testing to deployment and security. This shift challenges long-standing enterprise structures built around separation of duties and risk mitigation. At the same time, the definition of “developer” is expanding. With AI lowering technical barriers, software creation is becoming more about creative intent than mastery of specialized tools, opening the door to nontraditional developers. Experimentation is also moving into production environments, a change that would have seemed reckless just 18 months ago. According to O'Dell, enterprises now understand AI well enough to experiment confidently, but many are not ready for the cultural, operational, and security implications of developers — broadly defined — taking full control again.Learn more from The New Stack about the latest around enterprise developers and AI: Retool's New AI-Powered App Builder Lets Non-Developers Build Enterprise AppsSolving 3 Enterprise AI Problems Developers FaceEnterprise Platform Teams Are Stuck in Day 2 HellJoin our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Louise Fahys, co-founder of Plan2Play Artificial intelligence is no longer a future concept in club management — it is already reshaping how private and commercial clubs operate. But according to Louise Fahys, we are only scratching the surface. Fahys is the co-founder and CTO of Plan2Play, a court and sport booking platform built by people who understand both software engineering and the realities of club life. Her view is clear: the next generation of club operations will be driven by intelligent, conversational interfaces — think ChatGPT-style applications — where members interact directly with technology to book courts, schedule lessons, manage guest play, and personalize their club experience. AI Is Going to Change Everything in Club Management AI is already easing the workload for Directors of Racquets, Golf, and Operations. Tasks that once required hours of manual setup — like creating round robins, allocating courts, or balancing player levels — can now be handled in seconds. Names go in, constraints go in, and AI produces fair, efficient scheduling by level, gender, or randomization. And that, Fahys says, is just the beginning. The real shift will come through dynamic pricing. Much like airlines adjust pricing based on demand, clubs will increasingly use AI to price court time, tee times, lessons, clinics, amenities, and guest fees in real time. One-hour bookings will replace fragmented half-hour gaps. Utilization improves. Revenue becomes more predictable. Member experience improves. Data Will Confirm What Clubs Already Suspect AI will also validate long-held assumptions in club operations. Fahys notes that most club professionals already understand that the average lifetime value of a pickleball participant differs from that of a tennis member — and that tennis often differs again from padel or squash. AI won't just confirm those differences; it will quantify them. That data will influence everything from facility development to membership structures, programming decisions, and long-term capital planning for both private clubs and commercial operators. The End of the “Fiefdom” Era One of the most challenging areas for clubs, particularly member-owned facilities, is change. Software transitions are often resisted — not because the technology isn't effective, but because long-standing habits and informal traditions are deeply ingrained. Unspoken court ownership. Preferred time slots. Long-tenured directors controlling access “the way it's always been done.” AI introduces transparency. And transparency challenges tradition. As clubs move toward data-driven scheduling and access, those informal systems may begin to fade. For some, that will feel uncomfortable. For others, it will represent progress — fairer access, clearer policies, and a better overall member experience. Looking Ahead Fahys believes the clubs that embrace AI thoughtfully — using it as a tool to enhance service rather than replace hospitality — will be the ones that thrive. The technology is not about removing people from the equation; it's about freeing professionals to focus on what matters most: relationships, programming, and experience. The future of club management is arriving faster than many expect. And for those willing to engage with it, the opportunities are significant.

The conversation explores why this happens, what capabilities organizations need before scaling AI adoption, and how AI acts as an amplifier of existing systems rather than a silver bullet.Nathen introduces DORA's seven AI capabilities model and discusses critical issues around trust, documentation, skill devaluation, and the future of software delivery in an AI-native world.RECOMMENDED BOOKSEmily Freeman & Nathen Harvey • 97 Things Every Cloud Engineer Should Know • https://amzn.to/3UlWBLtCharles Humble • Professional Skills for Software Engineers • https://www.conissaunce.com/professional-skills-shortcutNicole Forsgren, Jez Humble & Gene Kim • Accelerate • https://amzn.to/442Rep0Kim, Humble, Debois, Willis & Forsgren • The DevOps Handbook • https://amzn.to/47oAf3lJez Humble & David Farley • Continuous Delivery • https://amzn.to/452ZRkyJez Humble, Joanne Molesky & Barry O'Reilly • Lean Enterprise • https://amzn.to/47pcOXDAdrienne Braganza Tacke • "Looks Good to Me": Constructive Code Reviews • https://amzn.to/3E75XrDYevgeniy Brikman • Fundamentals of DevOps and Software Delivery • https://amzn.to/3WMPMFUBlueskyTwitterInstagramLinkedInFacebookCHANNEL MEMBERSHIP BONUSJoin this channel to get early access to videos & other perks:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCs_tLP3AiwYKwdUHpltJPuA/joinLooking for a unique learning experience?Attend the next GOTO conference near you!

Chris Aniszczyk, co-founder and CTO of the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF), argues that AI agents resemble microservices at a surface level, though they differ in how they are scaled and managed. In an interview ahead of KubeCon/CloudNativeCon Europe, he emphasized that being “AI native” requires being cloud native by default. Cloud-native technologies such as containers, microservices, Kubernetes, gRPC, Prometheus, and OpenTelemetry provide the scalability, resilience, and observability needed to support AI systems at scale. Aniszczyk noted that major AI platforms like ChatGPT and Claude already rely on Kubernetes and other CNCF projects.To address growing complexity in running generative and agentic AI workloads, the CNCF has launched efforts to extend its conformance programs to AI. New requirements—such as dynamic resource allocation for GPUs and TPUs and specialized networking for inference workloads—are being handled inconsistently across the industry. CNCF aims to establish a baseline of compatibility to ensure vendor neutrality. Aniszczyk also highlighted CNCF incubation projects like Metal³ for bare-metal Kubernetes and OpenYurt for managing edge-based Kubernetes deployments. Learn more from The New Stack about CNCF and what to expect in 2026:Why the CNCF's New Executive Director Is Obsessed With InferenceCNCF Dragonfly Speeds Container, Model Sharing with P2PJoin our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

API sprawl creates hidden security risks and missed revenue opportunities when organizations lose visibility into the APIs they build. According to IBM's Neeraj Nargund, APIs power the core business processes enterprises want to scale, making automated discovery, observability, and governance essential—especially when thousands of APIs exist across teams and environments. Strong governance helps identify endpoints, remediate shadow APIs, and manage risk at scale. At the same time, enterprises increasingly want to monetize the data APIs generate, packaging insights into products and pricing and segmenting usage, a need amplified by the rise of AI.To address these challenges, Nargund highlights “smart APIs,” which are infused with AI to provide context awareness, event-driven behavior, and AI-assisted governance throughout the API lifecycle. These APIs help interpret and act on data, integrate with AI agents, and support real-time, streaming use cases.IBM's latest API Connect release embeds AI across API management and is designed for hybrid and multi-cloud environments, offering centralized governance, observability, and control through a single hybrid control plane.Learn more from The New Stack about smart APIs: Redefining API Management for the AI-Driven Enterprise How To Accelerate Growth With AI-Powered Smart APIs Wrangle Account Sprawl With an AI Gateway Join our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
