About this episode

The episode discusses insights from two conferences, highlighting issues in modern software and the innovative chaos of Open Sauce.

Casey Muratori and ThePrimeagen return from two very different conferences: Better Software Conference in Sweden and Open Sauce in California. They discuss why modern software feels broken, the developers trying to fix it, and the chaotic world of Open Sauce packed with science YouTubers, homemade machines, dangerous experiments, rockets, robots, and wildly ambitious projects built in garages and backyards. Linear helps teams track issues, manage projects, collaborate on docs, and ship products - and the crazy thing is their software is actually fast and a joy to use. Learn more: https://trm.sh/linear
