Tech, Bugs & Rock & Roll

After two weeks with two fantastic stunt ramblers, Dylan and Rendle both show up and the Trello backlog of stuff to talk about is looooong, so we're gonna have to talk fast.

Dylan is recovering from a xenomorph infestation so the delightful Chris "Woody" Woodruff is Rendle's guest partner for today's show. We talked about simplicity in software design and development, and performance in .NET, and some other stuff, and a splendid time was had by all. Enjoy.

Rendle's on an aeroplane so Dylan's going to be ramblecasting with architect, author and speaker Diana Montalion! Let's talk about systems thinking, explaining complicated things to simple people and simple things to complicated people, and that one time we randomly went to Castle Dracula. No, really.

Dylan and Rendle are LIVE from NDC London! And the WiFi or something was not very good so the audio is not very good. I've done the best I can but it's still not great so please forgive us. It's still worth listening though, this was a fun show.

We're at Linebreakers Band Camp! In a very posh house on the Kent coast, coming to you live from the Library. In the house!

This week Dylan and Rendle are talking about DDD South West, the FluentAssertions license change🍿, some new stuff Dylan's doing with Rockstar, community events (and what it's like speaking at a meetup that starts at 07:30am), what's happening at NDC London later this month, and anything else that pops into their heads.

People's names are difficult for computers. Speaking of names, Dylan and Rendle talk about splitting full names into first and last, Skulduggery Pleasant, Nvidia graphics cards that have given up on rendering polygons and just guess what the screen should look like instead, and a new DOOM mod that... well, listen to the episode.

Yay, 2025! What exciting things are Dylan and Mark looking forward to this year? What did they like about last year? What were the chat looking forward to? Which singer has the greatest vocal range? All these questions and more are answered in the first episode of season 2.

It's Boxing Day in the UK which means every TV channel will be showing some super boring film at 4pm, so why not join us for a chat instead?

(It's probably not Boxing Day now but you can listen to the recording anyway)

Dylan is once more adrift in the luminiferous aether so Eli once more steps into the breach to talk to Rendle about AI bubbles, gaming nostalgia and other matters of great pitch and moment
