Episode 25: Quarter Century
Episode description
It has now been 25 times that Ed and Chris have fired up Skype and talked to each other and some friends, old and new, about whatever the hell they felt like talking about.
They would keep doing this even if nobody else listened, because developer misery loves company. Thank you to everyone who has been listening to us work out our own issues with the technologies that help shovel money into our bank accounts.
In this episode Ed talked about his experiences at CodeConnex, Chris tried to goad Ed into further ranting and arguments about the latest round of push-backs against the microframework manifesto and people crying about other people crying about dependencies in their code.
The show then ended with Ed speaking about the very real challenge of creating awesome infinite scrolling experiences, which made Chris realize he is better off learning Javascript just to use Node and avoid the mess that is the DOM.
As always, thank you to our awesome sponsors at Engine Yard and Wonder Network for providing cashmoney and bandwidth for our live stream, respectively.
