It was a pleasure chatting with my friend @laurspilca.bsky.social about security, encryption, access control, and about his new book “Software Security for Developers” (co-authored with @asaikali.bsky.social) which I highly recommend to any software developer! @gotocon.com
#GOTOpodcast with @fab-ber.bsky.social and Steve Pereira on The Lean Tech Manifesto.
Key takeaways 👇
* Lean scales where agile struggles
* It’s about people, not processes
* Networks beat hierarchies

@laurspilca.bsky.social & @thomasvitale.com on the GOTO Book Club: why every developer must understand security basics - from hashing to OAuth - before writing (or prompting) another line of code. youtu.be/eOeelv5CjXg?...
C++26 is advancing safety & security. @danielae.bsky.social explains key memory-safety proposals, their current status, and what they mean for developers and the future C++ ecosystem.
#GOTOpodcast: Building Planetary-Scale Data Systems with Venice with @felixgv.ninja & Olimpiu Pop
*Venice is unbundled by design
*Chaos engineering isn’t optional
*CAP theorem isn’t theoretical

Ajay Chankramath & Nic Cheneweth Cheneweth on platform engineering: product mindset, control planes & AI. Don't skip the foundations.
Boxes are easy. Arrows are hard.
As Sam Newman says, architecture isn’t about components - it’s about how they connect, fail, scale, and evolve. The real complexity lives in the relationships.
I really enjoyed this conversation with Sam Newman and @simon.bvssh.com. Lots of insight 👇🏻
GOTOpodcast: SW Design, Architecture & Clarity at Scale x/ @tekiegirl.bsky.social, Sam Newman and @simon.bvssh.com
*Design is everywhere
*ADRs are about the “why”
*Communication must be repeated
*Habitability matters
*Balance standardization carefully

What if side effects weren’t something you “handle”…
but something you model?

The SDLC is being redefined in real time. GenAI isn’t just a coding assistant - it’s transforming how teams build and deliver software. Marko Klemetti & @krisajenkins.bsky.social break it down. Watch now.
@sarahjwells.bsky.social & @nickselby.com: AI tools need access to your crown jewels to be useful - so what's your blast radius when it goes wrong? Watch the episode.
"How do non-developers interact with complex systems?" - Rod Johnson's answer in this discussion is worth listening to. Low-code tools promised a lot, but MCP may be the more compelling answer - covering both human and agent integration. Sounds like something I wrote about recently
Smart people in the right environment move incredibly fast.
Then they see how slow most places really are.
As @tastapod.com puts it: great teams ruin you for other jobs.
#GOTOpodcast: Rod Johnson, @poutsma.bsky.social, and @trishagee.bsky.social unpack where Spring has been and what’s next.
* Backward compatibility vs. modern paradigms
* Java & Spring are closer than ever
* Modular monoliths are back (kind of)
and more

Interesting for coders. And Matt is always a treasure to listen to for all things programming.
It's been an eye-opener this year joining Epic where I've had to quickly pick up parts of C++ I've never used before. Confused at first, but after a few laps, wondering how I ever survived without it.

I spoke with @charleshumble.bsky.social a few weeks back for @gotocon.com
We dived into a wide range of security and container topics, from why containers came about and how vulnerability scanners work, to SBOMs and the evolution of Distroless into @chainguard.dev images
youtu.be/9NUOiL48hbo?...
@charleshumble.bsky.social & @adrianmouat.com discuss container security: why distroless images matter, how Chainguard builds from source for zero CVEs, and lessons from XZ Utils & Shackle-Alert attacks.
Not everyone loves games. Why should programming examples assume they do?
@russolsen.bsky.social on using real-life, relatable examples that actually make code stick.
#GOTOpodcast: Maximillian Kirchoff talks with
