@tangled.org have you seen git-bug? (https://github.com/git-bug/git-bug) it’d be pretty damned nifty if tangled’s issues were stored & accessible in a git-bug compatible way, for even more decentralisation in the most decentralised app for decentralised VCS!

Software engineering is a team sport. As you advance, you spend less time coding and more time communicating complex ideas in human language; the most expressive tool we have. Writing externalizes your thinking and allows others to give feedback, making everyone more effective. Your technical skills are your floor, writing ability is your ceiling. 2/
The best software engineers are fantastic written communicators. Here's why: - breaks information out of silos (DMs, emails) so others can reference, build upon, and expand your work - supports remote teams, different timezones, and helps colleagues catch up after time off - unblocks teammates by reducing repetitive conversations - prepares you for the lest of your career. Senior+ roles ARE writing roles: architecture docs, code reviews, technical specs, etc. 1/

Mike McQuaid and Justin Searls join Jerod in the wake of the RubyGems debacle to discuss what happened, what it says about money in open source, what sustainability really means for our community, making a career out of open source (or not), and more. Bleep!

We're joined by Deepak Singh from the Kiro team. Kiro is AWS's attempt at building an AI coding environment to take you from prototype to production. It does that by bringing structure to your agentic workflow with spec-driven development. Their aim: the flow of AI coding, leveled up with mature engineering practices.
In this episode of the CHAOSScast, host Alice Sowerby sits down with Andrew Nesbitt and Damián Vicino to discuss the formation and objectives of the new Package Metadata Working Group within the CHAOSS community. They discuss the complex issues surrounding package manager metadata, its interoperability challenges, and how the working group aims to address these through mapping and standardization efforts.

it's kinda weird that all the software i am expected to use for work are all written by distributed teams, go, python, postgres, linux, chrome, k8s etc and despite being told "the best teams work in an office together" i don't know of any software i use that's actually written that way
I will not be attending

We’re on strike. The Berliner (@exberliner.bsky.social)'s decision to run ads for the Nova Festival Exhibition was made against explicit objections from staff and regular freelancers. The ads follow months of pressure to suppress or soften coverage of the genocide in Gaza and its impact in Berlin.

What defines a truly great developer experience?Sam Lambert is the CEO at PlanetScale, building the next-generation cloud database. Previously Sam was Vice President of Engineering at GitHub, where he was responsible for scaling the company and culture to the world's largest platform for developers with over 100 million users. He was also responsible for creating GitHub Actions, the popular workflow automation tool. Prior to GitHub, Sam led the traffic and video infrastructure teams at Facebook. He is passionate about developer experience and delivering high quality software at scale.Sam joins us this week for an unfiltered conversation on what it takes to build tools developers trust. From scaling GitHub to reinventing how teams manage database workflows, Sam has been behind the scenes of some of the most developer-loved platforms of the last decade.Hosted by Stefan Avram and Jens Neuse, we talk DevEx, open source, monetization, collaboration, and where databases are headed next.Here’s what you’ll learn:Trust over Table StakesDark mode, a CLI, a working UI: these are baseline features, not innovation. Sam unpacks why trust is the foundation of any great developer experience, and how long-term thinking beats short-term applause.From Vitess to DevOps for DatabasesWhen Sam joined PlanetScale, the company was transitioning from simply offering the Vitess technology to delivering a MySQL database with a “compelling developer workflow”. We’ll explore how Sam helped articulate that product vision and build trust with users. Data Federation Meets API FederationPlanetScale unifies data across shards, regions, and database types. WunderGraph unifies APIs. Together, they offer a complementary model for modern teams. We explore how customers are using both types of tools, and what makes collaboration at scale actually work.AI, Agents, and the Next Database ParadigmWe couldn’t end without asking Sam how AI is shifting the way PlanetScale works, and how he sees the future. What does the rise of agents and new protocols (cough, MCP) mean for databases? And what trends is Sam betting on for the next five years?Why PlanetScale Metal is so fastSam breaks down the architectural decisions behind their high-performance Postgres and MySQL offerings. He explains how they run petabytes of state on bare metal inside Kubernetes and why most cloud databases leave performance on the table.Lessons from 55 people with 100% uptimeWith just 55 employees, PlanetScale runs one of the most trusted database platforms. Sam explains how a tiny infra team, a “no passengers” culture, and zero sysadmins help them outperform hyperscalers with 10 times the headcount.The Open Source AdvantageSam, Stefan & Jens explore how OSS enabled PlanetScale’s early growth, how they think about building on top of OSS today, and what Sam really thinks about the CNCF situation. Building for ScaleSam opens up about his obsession with scale. He talks about spinning up 500-node clusters at the press of a button and living vicariously through the success of their customers.If you're building developer tools, designing distributed systems, or just want a fresh perspective on where infrastructure is headed, this one’s for you.Jump into the comments or live chat! We want to hear:What does “developer experience” mean to you?Are databases finally part of DevOps?Is open source still the best way to start something big?Tune in every Friday at 9 AM on YouTube (WunderGraph - Stefan & Jens) for new Live episodes!Watch this episode here: Sam Lambert (CEO @ PlanetScale) on building tools developers actually trustVisit us at wundergraph.com

Men claim women talk too much, but boy if you get that man on a panel, he will over talk every woman present in the room.
APIs run the modern digital world, but what separates the good from the great?Daniel has been part of the codecentric team since October 2016. Since the beginning of 2022 he works as Principal API Consultant at the Dortmund branch. Starting as a consultant with a focus on application lifecycle management, his focus shifted more and more towards APIs. In addition to numerous customer projects and his involvement in the open source world around APIs. He is also a frequent speaker at conferences.In this episode of The Good Thing with Stefan & Jens, Daniel joins us for a deep dive into how modern teams should think about APIs: as products, as capabilities, and as core business enablers. From governance models to open source adoption to the future of API standards, this conversation explores what it really takes to make APIs work at scale.Here’s what you’ll learn:From APIs to CapabilitiesDaniel explains why thinking in terms of capabilities (“Ship Order”, “Process Payment”, “Approve Loan”) instead of technical endpoints can reshape API design. We discuss how this mindset shift ensures APIs align with business value and how product thinking drives long-term success.Governance vs. GatewaysAPIs don’t succeed without governance. Daniel shares why tools like API gateways are helpers, not leaders. Together, we explore strategies for balancing autonomy with control, defining ownership, and preventing API sprawl without killing innovation.Open Source as the API Backbonecodecentric deliberately builds on open-source technologies. Daniel, Jens, and Stefan discuss how communities like OpenAPI, AsyncAPI, and GraphQL accelerate progress, the trade-offs of open source in enterprise settings, and why standards are crucial for event-driven APIs.The Future of APIsWhat role will GraphQL, gRPC, and AsyncAPI play in shaping tomorrow’s API strategies? How might AI influence API design and usage? Daniel shares his perspective on when to use different approaches, where they converge, and why reliability still matters most.If you care about API strategy, developer experience, or building infrastructure that lasts, this conversation is for you.Join the live chat or comments and share:* Should APIs be designed as capabilities, not endpoints?* How much governance is too much?* What’s the role of open source in API strategy today?Tune in every Friday at 9 AM on YouTube (WunderGraph - Stefan & Jens) for new Live episodes!Watch this episode here: How Great Teams Build Great APIs — Daniel Kocot (API thought leader)Visit us at wundergraph.com
