149: I don't test my code, "crappy Python" is all I write - Corey Quinn

Corey Quinn is the Chief Cloud Economist at The Duckbill Group. He's also a podcaster and writes a newsletter. And he also automates things with Python. But he doesn't write tests. Let's find out why.

• Corey: What podcasts should I try to get an invite onto?
