With Special Guest: Olivier LacanEpisode SummaryOlivier Lacan joins the panel again. He currently works for Pluralsight. Today they are talking about the spectrum of creating a Rails app, or any app, from the birth of the idea to the death of the project. They stress the importance of planning for updates. Olivier talks about his experience in maintaining Code School, which has now been incorporated into Pluralsight. David also shares his experience with the life and death of a project. They talk about technical debt and the trouble that it can create, and the importance of making your Rails application maintainable. Olivier talks about his experience when Code School was acquired by Pluralsight. The panel discusses the inevitability of the end of an application and different ways of managing company integration. They talk about ways to plan for shutting down a project. One of the best ways to make integration easier is to clean up your code and always be considering what data needs to be kept and what can be truncated. They discuss some of the issues around storing customer data and respecting individual privacy. The panel talks more about sunsetting, or the ending of an app. People often think that shutting down an app doesn’t have any impact, but it is important to give customers time to adjust to change, as Olivier found out with Code School. Dave talks about different reactions that one could have when change happens. The panel talks about some of the emotional implications of having to destroy something that you’ve worked hard on for a long time. Ultimately, your project isn’t where you should put your self-worth, because projects will come to an end. When things do end, it’s important to look back at where you’ve come from and the impact that you’ve had on people. Links

With Special Guest: Leonardo TegonEpisode Summary Leonardo Tegon is a software developer at Plataformatec, the company that created Devise. Leonardo talks about how he ended up at Plataformatec and shares a little bit about the talk he gave about alternative authentication methods. He talks about the difference between Devise and Warden. Some of the panelists have had some issues with cache warming in Warden, and Leonardo shares ways to get around it. They talk about authentication strategies used in Warden and Devise and different strategies that tap into hardware. Leonardo talks about some of the features coming to Devise, although their primary focus is on maintenance. He talks about the work that goes into such a long-standing project, especially concerning maintaining the integrity of the code but also allowing for progress. They talk about some of their favorite features of Devise. Devise is easy to set up and very functional, but also intimidating. When a library is so big and does so much, it has to make some assumptions. Leonardo talks about how they decide what goes into the library at this point and how easy is it for new maintainers to contribute to the project. Leonardo ultimately wants to make it easier for people to jump in.Links

Episode SummarySpecial Guest Pete Holiday is the director of engineering at a company called Samsara and specializes interviewing software engineers. The panel begins by talking about some of the trends they see in tech interviews, specifically the move towards code-heavy interviews. Pete does not think take home tests accurately simulate a work environment, and shares his preferred technique. The panel discusses the most important things to look for in an interview, such as how good of a fit they will be with the company culture. They discuss the importance of hiring junior developers, some of the ethics of internships and compensating for take home projects.They turn the conversation to interview questions and what should be asked to evaluate a candidate. They go through some potential questions and methods for coming up for interview questions. Pete shares the interview process he designed. The panel talks about the importance of resumes. On the subject of resumes, they discuss how to avoid unconscious bias and maintain diversity in the workplace. They give a few tips for people being interviewed, such as doing interviews to keep you skills fresh, even if you aren’t necessarily looking for a job. The show ends with the panel recapping the most important points of their discussion. They emphasize that as the interviewer, it is imperative that you know what you want and are looking for in a new hire. When you’re doing the interviews, tech skills are important but the fit with the company is more important, and it’s your job to get all of the right information out of the candidate. People interviewing are encouraged to proofread their resumes, ask questions to find out if the company is a right fit, and not be afraid to ask for some accommodations in an interview. Links

Episode SummaryIn this episode of Ruby Rogues, the panel discusses how having too many tools in your code can make things more complicated. They talk about if the processes and tools that hurt productivity should be taken out. They question if outdated but harmless tools should be updated for newer ones that have more functions.They discuss the difficulty with adopting new tools since the setup process takes time away from production. They each talk about their different editor setups. The necessity of all this different tools is questioned. They note that there is a trend to take a good thing that solved a real-world problem and introduce it into places that it doesn’t need to be, making development more complex. It is advised that programmers focus on shipping an application rather than just writing the code in order to simplify tooling. They discuss whether backend as a service systems are part of the problem. They advise tech companies to consider if they are ever going to sell or migrate when considering a new tool. The panel talks about if it’s possible to end up fighting against the tools that have always been used rather than infrastructure or coding tools. They conclude by agreeing that it is important to be candid within companies to prevent this overtooling
