The Raika Show

Raika Technologies is proud to present this episode of The Raika Show, where we are exploring the iterative software methodology known as Agile.

Agile is designed to adapt to change extremely well. So why is it that teams never seem to be able to do just that, even when implementing Agile? Why is Agile never agile?

In this series, we will spend a little individual time with each member of the Raika Technologies team to learn more about who is behind the startup magic.

Today, we are talking to Grant Parks, CTO and Co-Founder. Grant is an integral contributor, both via his extensive technical acumen and his wonderfully witty sense of humor!

FUNDAMENTALS!

This week on Incubate This!, in podcast partnership with The Raika Show, Raika Technologies and GotAnAppIdea.com talk about the benefits of advanced education and postulates how much a formal degree matters to be a successful Software Developer.

This week on The Raika Show, we are exploring the wonder of Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality… And discussing the impact of both on our actual Reality. Could this technology be the key to bringing humanity back to actual connectedness? Or does it further fuel our addition to social media, smart phones and the illusion of being connected?

This week on The Raika Show, we’re partnering up with Incubate This! to talk about IoT: Internet of Things.

Ahh, the Internet of Things… Smart thermostats, smart lights, smart door locks. The world is now just plain SMARTER because of these tiny little robots we’ve entrusted to care for the mundane logistics in our lives.

Are they really trustworthy? What is IoT, how was the spec invented, and what were the creators thinking anyway? Listen as GotAnAppIdea.com and Raika Technologies join forces to find out how these little gadgets impact our everyday lives.

This week on The Raika Show we're talking about NativeScript, a framework designed to cross-compile a single code base to iOS and Android, and frameworks in general. We get into our views on the state of modern web and software development, and how the industry is being impacted by the proliferation of developers who don't take the time to understand the fundamentals before diving into using frameworks. It's a little bitch session, but with nuggets of creamy goodness!

Our sister blog, Incubate This!, has just released its very first podcast episode, and it’s all about the business of building a startup.

The gap that exists between “I have an idea!” and “I need funding” is ENORMOUS. This week we are exploring the gap with help from our client and friend William Loopesko, CEO of PuppTech, and discussing the process of building a new startup and what it really takes to get to success.
