In this episode, Sammie sits down with IBM Champion and Broadcom expert Ray Mullins, whose 45+ years in the mainframe world have shaped the Z community as we know it. Ray shares insights on IBM’s recent ZPDT changes, what they mean for small ISVs, and how innovation can continue through adaptability. Beyond the tech talk, he opens up about advocating for neurodiversity, building inclusive teams, and—of course—his three golden retrievers who keep things balanced.
