Podcasts

Here are some software engineering Podcasts that I enjoy. I'm always looking out for more, so please send me recommendations on @hpincket@fosstodon.org

Future of Coding

When I was a student my main complaint was that the software engineering culture focused so heavily on the corporate setting. The Future of Coding is not that. They capture software engineering with a wider lens.

Dynamic hosts, stellar editing, historic papers, and niche topics. The hosts often disagree and so I am thankful Jimmy Miller is there to represent my views.

The Backend Engineering Show with Hussein Nasser

Hussein gets into the details of operating system and network stack. Little editing.

Inside Java

Listen to the Java developers at Oracle talk about their work. A little stiff but informative and straight from the source.

Juxt Cast

Juxt works in the financial industry and has built an accompanying database XTDB with a feature called 'bitemporality'. The episodes focus on related concepts: SQL, alternative DBs, representing time in applications, etc. I find their hosts to be pretty well informed, and they have interesting guests.

Software Unscripted

A podcast about programming languages and compilers. The host is working on his own programming language and talks to various other language designers. Again, lots of good guests.

Oxide and Friends

A lot of the content in this podcast is not relevant to my work, but the banter between Bryan and Adam is entertaining so I listen anyway. This podcast is closer to the hardware than I'll never need to be. And sometimes the episodes spend tens of minutes on company lore and the hosts personal history. It's entertaining, but I now know too much about them.
