Remember the amazing adventure it was to learn a new thing every day as a Junior Developer? It's easy to feel a little stuck or lost as a Senior developer since there aren't roadmaps or people looking to mentor seniors. (Besides Charles Max Wood.) Chuck talks about how he felt that way at different points in his career and how podcasting and connecting with the programming communities helped him get past that. Panel

Julien Maisonneuve—blogger extraordinaire—joins the Elixir Mix panel to discuss the ways he’s bent Elixir to his will and found the edges of how it works and what you can do with its syntax. He talks about currying and about taking Elixir syntax to extremes. He’s also worked on the Megaparsec Elixir parser and explains some of the oddities that come with working with Elixir’s AST(Abstract Syntax Tree.) Panel

Charles Max Wood explains how he landed his first 4 freelance clients that took him through a few years of freelancing with only 3 years of experience and a few hundred podcast listeners. Funnily enough, they actually came to him, not the other way around. He explains how he made himself attractive to them and then turned it into a mutually profitable relationship once he had their attention. Panel
