Hilary Stohs-Krause is a co-owner and full-stack software developer at Ten Forward Consulting. She joined Brittany to discuss her upcoming RailsConf 2020.2 Couch Edition session. Together, they explored the root causes of fear and anxiety and how we can start to deliberately rewrite our instincts.

This week we dive into a PLETHORA of cover reschedules, pushes, and streaming news! Plus find out Dan's hot take on "Bladerunner".

Also more long emails from Walkaer, Bryan probably died, no new reviews of the show or Patreon supporters BUT - we know that PATTY JENKINS GETS SHIT DONE.

Not to mention a HUGE announcement for next week's show.

Co-host: Dan Richardson

DISCUSSED: our perception of value is definitely personal and maybe even a little generational; sometimes, the only thing you can afford is the best; a listener question about where your hosts are with comics; further praise for TaskPaper; updates on macOS text editing; Merlin capitulates to Catalina; Dan answers a listener question about coping with chronic back pain; learning how to stop rehearsing frailty by embracing the wonders of momentum.

Dave and Harry discuss the importance of designating a home technology manager. Also, Siouxsie and the Banshees, our at-home tools of the week and life in Zell.

Jeff and Christian welcome Ben Kuchera from Polygon.com to the show this week to discuss the Crysis Remastered announcement, more info about the next Batman game, a limited edition Xbox One X for Cyberpunk 2077, and more!

Plus some Marvel updates, who hasn't seen "Dune" yet - and where do Mermaids EXACTLY have hair?

Guest Skype Interview: Christopher F Todd

Co-host: Dan Richardson

DISCUSSED: Dan loves it when things just work and so does Merlin; Dan is composting, and Merlin is down to clown; ¡repita después de mi!; massive real-time follow-up; playing with iBeacons; excellent follow-up and notes from listeners; many reccomendations; memories of Grad Night; this is a very silly one.
