Kodsnack 570 - Debug your ideas, with Eric Normand

February 20, 2024 05:26 - 40 minutes - 18.8 MB

Fredrik is joined by Eric Normand for a discussion of debugging your ideas through domain modeling, using Eric’s concept of lenses to find more good questions to ask. Eric is writing a book about domain modeling and has developed the concept of lenses - ways to look at various aspects of your domain, model, and code in order to better consider various solutions and questions. Why? Because design is needed, but is easily lost in the modern urge to be fast and agile. The...

Fredrik has Matt Topol and Lars Wikman over for a deep and wide chat about Apache Arrow and many, many topics in the orbit of the language-independent columnar memory format for flat and hierarchical data. What does that even mean? What is the point? And why does Arrow only feel more and more interesting and useful the more you think about deeply integrating it into your systems? Feeding data to systems fast enough is a problem which is focused on much less than it ough...

A lot of t...

How to bridge the gap between theory and academia on one side and practice and industry wanting to build things right now? By example. Do our short time scales and focus on iteration hurt us? Eighteen months sounds like an impos...

December 13, 2023 05:26 - 21 minutes - 9.91 MB

Recorded on-stage at Øredev 2023 just after her keynote, Fredrik chats to Na’Tosha Bard about picking good building blocks, getting products done, and code outliving you. Software outlives you.

November 07, 2023 05:26 - 34 minutes - 16.2 MB

Recorded at Øredev 2022, Fredrik chats with Natalia Tepluhina about perhaps the most complicated part of frontend development: state management. Why is state management so tricky, and what can we do about it? Natalia tells a fascinating story of a beautiful abomination of state management libraries in a single application. Don’t be the bottleneck. Some people enjoy it, but it doesn’t do you any good (or your company for that matter). Natalia realized she had become one...

August 03, 2021 05:26 - 1 hour - 28.7 MB

Kristoffer chats with Harald Achitz about test-driven development, Djinni, meetups, and the standardization of C++. How does Harald do TDD? His focus on code coverage plays a role too.
