In this episode, Eemeli Aro flaps his wings and flies all the way from Finland to plop in to the duck pond to discuss coding as artistic expression, science fiction fandom, and most importantly, his involvement in the open source community.  And of course we find out his favorite band (you haven't heard of them).

We're coming back hot with an interview with the great Wes Bos!  We talked to Wes about his coding journey, from customizing his friends' Myspace profiles to the javascript guru he is today.  We  also got his thoughts on how to stay up to date with changes in the industry and forced him to recommend a VSCode extension on the spot.

In this episode, CSS Wizard Mark Youssef trades his cloak in for some swim trunks and takes a dip in the Duck Pond to teach us a few things about styling in web development.  He tells us what potions he had to drink and spells he had to cast to defeat his greatest of foes, the Voldemort to his Harry: The Button.  He drops some hot tips about animating in CSS, giving his recommendations on how to take your fps from bumpy to buttery.  In the end, we all agree that Magic: The Gathering is a really fun game that people shouldn't be ashamed to play.

In this episode, we recount a tale of social engineering that we recently unwittingly took part in.  Leaning heavily on the "tangentially related" portion of the phrase "tangentially related to software development," we leave no stone unturned and go into painful detail in the retelling of an incident that walks the thin line between irrelevant and enlightening.
