Read more In this episode, Jared is joined by Samir Talwar to talk about why “programming peaked” and how the developer experience has arguably regressed over the last 15 years—from losing powerful IDE refactoring workflows to the ways pull requests can turn into delayed integration. They dig into what teams lost when testing became “everyone’s job,” why reviews often get stuck in surface-level diff commentary, and how pairing (with rotation) can restore earlier feedback and shared context. They also get into infrastructure trade-offs: containers and Let’s Encrypt are huge wins, but Kubernetes and other “Google-scale defaults” can add heavyweight complexity for teams that don’t actually need it.Links:Samir Talwar (site)“Programming Peaked” (Samir’s post)Language Server Protocol (LSP)Visual Studio CodeVimContinuous integration (Martin Fowler)Extreme Programming (XP)Pull requests (GitHub docs)KubernetesDockerLet’s EncryptMastodonDead Code Podcast Links:MastodonXJared’s Links:MastodonXtwitch.tv/jardonamronJared’s Newsletter & WebsiteEpisode Transcript Hosted on Acast.

Read more L'hôpital public "tient bon" et "la situation reste gérable" malgré les tensions provoquées par la conjonction de l'épidémie de grippe, des intempéries et de la grève des médecins libéraux, a assuré mardi la Fédération hospitalière de France, qui regroupe les hopitaux publics français.

La FHF a également recensé 108 "établissements en tension" la semaine dernière, selon ses chiffres. Show less
