Good talks/podcasts (Jun 2022 I)


 


These are the best podcast/talks I've seen/listen to recently:
  • Scaling Organizations and Design with James Shore (James Shore) [Agile, Evolutionary Design, Software Design, XP] [Duration: 0:48:00] (⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐) Great interview with great ideas (mocking-free testing, scalability of horizontal organization, FAST framework, code evolution with evolutionary design...). Very worthwhile.
  • Feature Branches and Toggles in a Post-GitHub World (Sam Newman) [Continuous Delivery, Technical Practices, Trunk Based Development] [Duration: 0:50:00] In this presentation Sam explains how working in feature branches creates friction when our goal is to achieve continuous delivery. Sam explains how to use Feature Toggles to improve delivery frequency.
  • From Kubernetes to PaaS to ... Err, What's Next? (Daniel Bryant) [Developer Productivity, Devex, Platform, Platform as a product] [Duration: 0:31:00] (⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐) In this talk Daniel reviews his experience in building platforms, both as an end-user and now as part of an organization that helps our clients do the same. She discusses topics such as DevEx, UX, workflows, available tools, etc.
  • Make Impacts Not Software (Gojko Adzic) [Lean Product Management, Lean Software Development, Product, Product Strategy] [Duration: 0:51:00] (⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐) An essential talk to understand how to get the most impact with the least amount of software (and thereby reduce basal cost and time to market). Highly recommended.
  • The Difference between Software Engineering and Manufacturing (Donald Reinertsen) [Lean Product Management, Product] [Duration: 0:09:00] In this interview, Don explains the basic difference between applying lean to a manufacturing process and to a digital/software product creation process.
  • the deep synergy between testability and good design (Michael Feathers) [Software Design, Technical Practices, XP, testing] [Duration: 0:50:00] Interesting talk about how to do good software design and the relationship between this design and the ease of testing.
  • Less - The Path to Better Design (Sandi Metz) [OOP, Software Design] [Duration: 0:50:00] (⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐) This talk strips away the well-known design principles and exposes the hidden, underlying goals of design. It reveals programming techniques that allow you to write less code while creating beautiful, flexible applications.
Reminder, All these talks are interesting even just listening to them.
