This week Anna and Chris decompress from GigCity Elixir. They discuss several of the talks including a talk by Stu Halloway about what open source maintainers owe to communities. This leads to a discussion on how to have productive conversations about open source projects. Chris laments some of the ways that he's interacted with the community and Anna pushes for ways to facilitate constructive communication.

This leads to a discussion about good ways to build modules and libraries that can be easily taught to newcomers.
