Jump in and learn various debugging techniques and tools with Zach, Dave, and Jim.

Here we explore monolithic development, pitfalls that cripple it, and techniques that can be used to accomplish it successfully.

In this episode we discuss the different ways that we can gain confidence in our designs. We explore how to get over feeling our code is inferior.

In this episode we will discuss several myths about Delphi that we have heard, read, and been witnesses to over the years. We will discuss each myth and try to provide the real information and facts.

This is the first episode the discussions series. This episode provides listeners some background on the shows hosts as well as why they choose Delphi and under what circumstances they reach for it.
