This episode is different than a normal episode of Cross Cutting Concerns!

This episode is about an R-Rated movie! Normally my podcast is G-rated, but that is not the case for this episode. If you normally listen with children, I recommend you listen to Story Pirates with them instead!

This is a long episode: almost an hour. Normally my episodes are around 15 minutes.

This is an episode about a (vaguely) technical/computer related movie. I’ve done a couple of episodes like this in the past: 071 - Bill Sempf on Sneakers and 036 - Kevin Groves on Pirates of Silicon Valley.

Show Notes:

We watched Office Space, a 1999 film by Mike Judge. If you haven’t watched it, you should!

Inside joke alert: the mention of a "white jimmy". This is a reference to a GMC Jimmy SUV that’s painted white. But suppose someone came up to you and said "I have a white Jimmy" and then paused for 15 seconds…​

There are many tangents we go on in this episode. Confused? Send me a question, and I will try to clarify.

K*Pax - a film you’ve probably never heard of starring Kevin Spacey, Jeff Bridges, and (notable for this podcast) Ajay Naidu.

Speaking of Kevin Spacey, if you’re out of the loop, you might want to read up on Anthony Rapp.

The video discussed briefly in the episode is 7 Things You (Probably) Didn’t Know About Office Space

Adult Swim is the late night block of Cartoon Network that showed King of the Hill in syndication.

Be sure to check out the Office Space soundtrack.

Speaking of the "year 2000 switch", check out episode 100 - with Joe Kelly on COBOL.

We mentioned Tiger LCD games. Here’s a refresher if you don’t quite remember them.

Thank you for being a loyal listener of Cross Cutting Concerns. This is a very short episode, but stay tuned until the end of the episode for a little sneak peak at what's coming next year.

I've really enjoy making these shows, and I hope you find them useful!

I'll be back with new episodes in 2019.

In the meantime, there are a few things you can do to help support the show.

First, if you are using any podcast platform that allows reviews, especially iTunes, leaving a review is very helpful, and helps people find the show.

Second, I've started a new "feedback" page. You can submit ideas and vote on other's ideas. Go to crosscuttingconcerns.com/podcast and click on the LEAVE FEEDBACK button.

I'm especially interested in suggestions for future guests, your thoughts on the JavaScript game this year, and what topics you'd like to hear covered. More COBOL? Less JavaScript? More Nintendo emulation? Less ColdFusion? I want to know. This year was the best year yet, but I think next year will be ever greater with your help.

Third, please tell people about the show! Tweet, facebook, tell your coworkers.

Finally, I'm thankful for my sponsor this year, Smartsheet. Check them out at smartsheet.com/crosscuttingconcerns. I'm also thankful to all the great guests, I can't list them all, but I'm so grateful that I got to meet and hang out with all of you. I want to give special thanks to David Giard for being so supportive and inspirational. Be sure to check out his show Technology and Friends. I also want to give special thanks to Joe Ferg for creating some amazing music, make sure to check out all the excellent stuff he is creating at JoeFerg.com.

I'm thankful for each one of my listeners, and I hope you'll stay with me next year.

VM "Vicky" Brasseur talks open source and free software. This episode is sponsored by Smartsheet.

Show Notes:

Book: Forge Your Future with Open Source

Patreon: VM (Vicky) Brasseur is creating writings & talks, supporting free & open source software

Some free and open source software mentioned in this episode:

Linux

Firefox

Blender

Godot

Debian

Copyleft was mentioned at least once.

Paper: Open Source Archetypes (PDF) by James Vasile and Karl Fogel

Utility is a concept brought from time to time in EconTalk, one of my favorite podcasts.

In this episode, VM discusses Microsoft’s patents. This episode was recorded BEFORE the announcement from Microsoft joining the Open Invention Network. (This is one of the reasons I like to say the date of the recording at the top of every episode). I did not reach out to VM to get any further comment on this event.

Redis licensing changes. We had an extended discussion about Redis licensing that I cut just due to time constraints, but definitely reach out to VM if you have questions!

Something else that happened since this podcast was recorded: MongoDB made a license change. I think it’s similar to Redis’s change, but I’m not entirely sure.

Michael Eaton talks with me on a variety of topics. This episode is sponsored by Smartsheet.

Show Notes:

Matched Pattern

SAFe. Those diagrams absolutely scream "Individuals and interactions over processes and tools" and "Responding to change over following a plan" if you ask me.

Perl is a language, most criticized for looking like unreadable "line noise". But that may be an unfair criticism. If you love Perl, contact me and let’s get you on the show.

Elixir

Blog: Same Stuff Different Day

Blog: Thoughts on Writing

Premise vs premises, and if you can’t remember, just say "on prem" like me :)
