Hello and welcome to a new episode of Code && Beyond. A podcast where we talk about software development and anything beyond that.
My name is Pablo and as usual I'm here with my good friend Alex.
Today we have our first returning guest, Ana Hernández last time we talked about SEO with her and this time she has come back to discuss a very different topic: Product discovery.
But first, Ana please introduce yourself again.
Okay! That's it for today. Thank you for listening! 🙂

Hello and welcome to the a new episode of Code && Beyond. A podcast where we talk about software development and anything beyond that.
Recently I had a chance to organize a Hack && Tell event. If you don't know what Hack && Tell is, I'll quickly explain it. It's basically a chance for people to present their pet projects. Every presenter has 5 minutes to present and then 5 more minutes to answer questions from the audience. The presentation isn't an elevator pitch, but more like a live demo of your project and it's always to show some cool parts of the source code.
I really like Hack && Tell format because it has simple rules and allows people to show what they are passionate about. It's incredibly inspiring.
Today we are going to talk about hackers. Not those, who break into computer systems to steal secrets, but those who eager to learn, explore, and try things. Those people who delight in having an intimate understanding of the internal workings of a system. True hackers, I would say.
My name is Alex and as usual I'm joined by my good friend Pablo. Hi Pablo! 😄

</p>Hello and welcome to a new episode of Code && Beyond. A podcast where we talk about software development and anything beyond that.
Cloud computing is part of our daily life for a long time already. Some products might not be even possible without it. Besides obvious things like apps on our laptops, smartphones, and PCs, there are cloud-connected TVs, refrigerators, keyboards and so on.
While cloud computing definitely provides many great benefits to consumers and developers, it comes with a certain price. This isn't just about money. For consumers there are questions like privacy and personal information, freedom of choice, necessity to be always connected. For developers it might mean increased complexity of the things they work on.
Today we aren't going to fanatically blame or defend cloud computing, but try to analyze what works and doesn't work for us personally, what alternatives we use and why. When it might make sense to go cloudless?
My name is Alex and as usual I'm joined by my good friend Pablo.
Okay! That's it for today. Thank you for listening! 🙂

Hello and welcome to the new episode of Code && Beyond. A podcast where we talk about software development and anything beyond that.
As software engineers we rely a lot of tools. Editors, IDEs, linters, version control, terminal emulators, virtual machines, and so on. Tools we bought, downloaded for free from the internet, and built ourselves.
In some ways these tools define or at least affect quality of final results we produce. They boost our delivery speed and automate some boring tasks. Sometimes they drive us crazy, let's admit that as well 😄 We depend on them and need them every single day.
Let's talk about favorite tools and try to find a way to build the most effective development environment ever!
My name is Alex and as usual I'm joined by my good friend Pablo. Hi Pablo! 😄
We also have a special guest today. Juan Ibiapina. He has the most advanced development environment I've ever seen in my life :) Hello Juan!

For the last eight something years, I work as a full-time employee. But before that, it was many years of self-employment and freelancing. A wide range of experiences from amazing to not so much. But one this is true: I learned a lot.
The topic of today is freelancing.
My name is Alex and as usual I'm joined by my good friend Pablo. Hi Pablo! 😄
Okay! That's it for today. Thank you for listening! 🙂

Working as a freelancer, consultant, full-time employee
As software engineers, we aren't limited to just one type of employment. Some prefer to have more flexibility and jump from one project to another focusing on short-term tasks, others value stability and like staying with the company for a long time. We could work as freelancers, consultants, and, of course, full-time employees.
What's interesting, though, is that all these different types of employment have a couple myths around them.
In this episode of Code && Beyond, Pablo and Alex discuss some of the myths and are trying to prove or bust them using their personal experience.

As software engineers we are usually really good at solving problems. Well... at least software problems. Sometimes along the way we create even more problems which usually decided to solve later. We call that technical debt 😄
The topic of today is problem solving, and we are going to share our tips and tricks on that matter.
My name is Alex and as usual I'm joined by my good friend Pablo.

How to solve problems: advises based on our personal experience
In this episode we share our tips and tricks related to problem solving. What and why works for us and maybe would work for you as well.
- Timeboxing
- The scientific method
- Experimentation and prototyping
- Diagrams or drawings on paper
- Try to explain the problem in simple words
- Try to think and describe the problem, not the solution
- ...and more

I'm Pablo and today I'm here with my friend Alex and a new special guest Pablo Hernández.
Quite frequently people ask me about how I got into software development, how difficult or easy it is to learn how to code, how hard it is to get your first job and so on. I come from a, lets call it, classic background: CS degree. That means my path to becoming a software developer was quite organic. That's why I thought that it would be great to have someone like Pablo who is coming from a totally different background.
Okay! That's it for today. Thank you for listening! 🙂

Hello and welcome to a new episode of Code && Beyond. A podcast where we talk about software development and anything beyond that.
I'm Pablo and today I'm here with my friend Alex to talk about the onboarding process. We are not HR experts or anything like that but both of us have been onboarded in different companies and helped to onboard developers to the companies we worked for.
Let's start from the point of view of a new joiner. What are the things that you like to find when you join a company?
Let's switch to the buddy side. What are the things that you tend to do as a buddy?
Summary
Okay! That's it for today. Thank you for listening! 🙂

' Side-notes:
'
' - Effort should be proportional the number of on-boarded people.
' - It's good to know the type of the on-boarded person. Some people prefer to work asynchronously and read documentation, others like pairing and human interaction.
' - Mention that buddies needs to be trained.

I'm Pablo and today I'm here with my friend Alex and a new special guest José Doval (Pepe).
Pepe and I have been friends for a long time. We studied CS at the same university and even built a company together (not a very successful one). Back in the day, I used to think that he was a talented software developer who loved chess. These days, I'm not so sure anymore. I'm starting to think that he is a chess player who likes software development :-)
So Pepe, please introduce yourself and let's try to solve this mistery :-)
Okay! That's it for today. Thank you for listening! 🙂
Mention Pepe's Twitch channel?

Hello and welcome to the a new episode of Code && Beyond. A podcast where we talk about software development and anything beyond that.
In the episode 29 we touched on the topic of building an effective development environment. Together with our special guest: Juan Ibiapina, we talked about our favourite tools and tried to define how we would build the most effective dev environment ever.
Today Juan joined us again to share the story of his Basher project. Basher is a popular package manager for shell scripts.
My name is Alex and as usual I'm joined by my good friend Pablo.
