Kodsnack in English

Fredrik talks to Maddy Montaquila about building user interfaces, and how .net has come a much longer way than people may think. We talk about the various .net-related options for building user interfaces, mixing and matching MAUI stuff, Blazor stuff, and straight up web stuff. We discuss the way to go for Windows desktop apps among all these options. The perception of .net - a challenge and something being actively worked on. We also touch on actually useful AI, plus some unexpectedly fond memories of the touch bar. Recorded during Øredev 2024.

Fredrik talks to Grace Jansen about cloud tools, and bringing them to your local machine in a better way. Opentelemetry is a great tool, but it’s not the whole story for observability. Gathering the data is just the first step. In the second half, we leave telemetry and talk about realizing you have things to share and sharing them with other people. Find out what makes you tick, and share experiences around that. Grace also shares some concrete presentation-building tips at the end. Ask the question, and be more you! Recorded during Øredev 2024.

Fredrik talks to Barry O’Reilly about software architecture. Barry has spent a lot of time and energy connecting software architecture to actual code and development work, and finding good ways of actually training new generations of software architects. Architecture is a level above programming, it is a different skill, and it needs to be properly taught so that more people can think and make active decisions about it. Oh, and architecture happens at a group level. You can’t really do it alone. Barry’s quest led him to complexity science, a PhD to actually prove his ideas hold up, and two books. The idea that you have to understand what goes on in the code in order to do good architecture is more controversial than one might think. Thank you Cloudnet for sponsoring our VPS!

Fredrik talks to Dejan Milicic about software development - understanding, methods, and stories. We start by talking about encapsulation of knowledge and the essential software in organizations. Almost every organization should - it can be argued - be developing software that solves their unique problems, and yet so many outsource so much of their knowledge encapsulation. Oh, and we can never completely encapsulate our knowledge in code either, so all the more reason to keep people who actually know what the code does and why around. Dejan tells us about his way to Ravendb and a developer relations role - and how you can craft your own job, stepping suitably outside of your comfort zone along the way. We also talk about shortening attention spans, daring to dig down a bit and find out about the context of things. Like the second sentence of some oft-repeated quote. Prohibit bad things, but help automate doing good things and avoid doing the bad things completely. Dejan shares some database backstories - why would someone want to build one more database? Specifically, what lead to the creation of Ravendb? And the very strong opinions which have been built into it. Avoiding falling into marketing-driven development. After that, we drift into talking about processes and how we work. Every organization is unique - which strongly speaks against adapting the “best practices” and methodologies of others. Or keeping things completely the same for too long. Innovation is also about doing what other people are not doing. Why is concurrency still hard? The free lunch has been over for twenty years! Functional programming and immutability offer ways forward, why aren’t these concepts spreading even more and faster? We get right back to understanding more context when Dejan discusses how few of us seem to have understood, just for example, the L in SOLID. Dive deeper, read more, and you will find new things and come up with new ideas. Finally, Dejan would like to see software development becoming just a little bit more mathematical. So that things can be established, verified and built on in a different way. Thank you Cloudnet for sponsoring our VPS! Comments, questions or tips?

Recorded on-stage at Øredev 2024, Fredrik talks to Laura Herman about creativity, creation, and AI. Among other things, we discuss: How the perspectives of different groups differ, and Laura talks about the many factors which inform how people feel about generative AI. Generative AI as curation. How and where in our work processes we want AI assistance. Dataset curation and specialized models, and how they can be important and interesting going forward. What happens if we have to be very picky about what we train models on? How are people working with sustainability for generative models? Laura’s own research into AI and creativity, and how other inventions have affected creativity and art. Finally, we discuss curation, and the possibilities of alternate curation platforms for finding things you like.

Recorded on-stage at Øredev 2024, Fredrik talks to Kent Beck and Beth Andres-Beck about development practices, code reviews, and more. Unfortunately, sound quality is a lot worse than it should be. We apologize, and invite any sound processing wizards out there to get in touch if they have solid ways of improving it. Has there actually been a backlash - a move toward more rigid processes? And what can we do about that? The development process is a shadow cast by the power structure, and in big organizations, you need someone who’s job it is to read all the documents. Also: improving code reviews, and how breaking the build can land you in a room with exactly the right people.
