#242 Dean Tribble between innovation and reinventing the wheel
Episode description
Dean placed the start of his journey in 6th grade, reading science fiction and dreaming of building robots. From there on, in the late 70s, the virus never left him. The rest of the interview was a history lesson about software engineering. Dean spoke of the first company he created in high school and funded by Atari founder Nolan Bushnell. He talked about his time working for Xerox Parc and then on project Xanadu, e.g., Hypertext. Beyond this history of the Silicon Valley, we spoke about "old" scientific papers and how they apply today. About workflows, language design, smart contracts, Blockchains, web3, etc., and how they all have the same elementary building blocks, sync/async & blocking/non-blocking. What a ride!
