Gene Baur is the founder of Farm Sanctuary, a place of rescue, refuge, and adoption for hundreds of farm animals each year. Farm Sanctuary shelters enable visitors to connect with farm animals as emotional, intelligent individuals. Gene has also led campaigns to change laws about animal treatment and taken undercover photographs of farms, stockyards, and slaughterhouses, documenting deplorable conditions. His pictures and videos exposing factory farming cruelties have aired nationally and internationally, educating millions about the plight of modern farm animals, and his rescue work inspired an international farm sanctuary movement. Once called “the conscience of the food movement” by Time magazine, Gene walks the walk and talks the talk when it comes to food and animal rights. Jay and Gene discuss the political and cultural steps that will bring about the end of factory farming and a healthier approach to animals and food.

AI tools are transforming how developers write code, and although it’s difficult to pinpoint how much code is now AI-generated code, estimates suggest it’s between 20% and 40%, and this figure is poised to grow in the coming years. This evolution has given rise to a new coding paradigm in which developers act as directors, guiding and refining AI-generated solutions rather than manually writing every line of code. This approach was recently termed “vibe coding” by Andrej Karpathy, and it shifts the programmer’s role from detailed coding to overseeing and enhancing AI-produced code. It emphasizes collaborative interaction with AI, blending human creativity with machine efficiency to solve complex problems. Vish Abrams is the Chief Architect at Heroku and previously worked at Oracle and NASA, among other organizations. In this episode, Vish joins the show with Kevin Ball for a wide-ranging conversation about the state of AI-based tools, whether there are limits to vibe coding, AI tools for individuals vs. AI tools for teams, the Model Context Protocol, Heroku’s managed inference service, and much more.

In 79 AD, in the ancient Roman town of Herculaneum, twenty meters of hot mud and ash buried an enormous villa once owned by the father-in-law of Julius Caesar. Inside, there was a vast library of papyrus scrolls. The scrolls were carbonized by the heat of the volcanic debris, but they were trapped underground where they remained preserved. It wasn't until the 1750s that the scrolls were discovered, but they were fragile and resistant to being opened and read. Then, in 2015, researchers used X-ray tomography and computer vision to virtually unwrap the scrolls. Last year, the Vesuvius Challenge was launched by Nat Friedman, Daniel Gross, and Brent Seales to crowdsource the process of reconstructing the text from the scrolls. Juli Schilliger and Youssef Nader are two members from the winning team. They join the show to talk about the computational approaches they used to reconstruct the scroll text. For interested listeners, the 2024 Vesuvius Challenge is now live, with new challenges and prizes. Check out ScrollPrize.org to learn more.

Data breaches at major companies are so now common that they hardly make the news. The Wikipedia page on data breaches lists over 350 between 2004 and 2023. The Equifax breach in 2017 was especially notable because over 160 million records were leaked, and much of the data was acquired by Equifax without individuals' knowledge or consent. Data breaches are increasingly costly to companies and to affected users who must deal with the ensuing identity theft. In 2018 the European Union implemented the General Data Protection Regulation, or GDPR. Despite its mild name, the GDPR had major consequences for individuals' rights to control their data, and for companies that operate in the EU. Among other things, it gives the right to have personal data removed from a company’s records. This is the so-called "right to be forgotten". Gal Ringel is the Co-Founder and CEO of Mine , which allows users to identify which companies have their data, and it automates the process of removing data on behalf of its users. In this way, Mine aims to reduce online exposure and minimize risk for anyone using online services.

What happens if the designer needs to adjust the design and communicate this change to the developer? These sorts of issues can often lead to inefficiencies and frustrations on a team. Figma recently announced Dev Mode which aims to smooth design and developer collaboration. The idea is to tie the visual language of designers to the actual component implementation of the developer. Marcel Weekes is VP of Product Engineering at Figma, and before that he spent 6 years at Slack. Marcel joins the show today to talk about Dev Mode, how it will boost collaboration between designers and devs, and the new Figma VS Code plugin that brings design into the IDE.

Frontend web frameworks are software toolkits that handle many of the low-level and repetitive aspects of building a website. These frameworks have made it easier than ever to build a modern website. The open-source Astro framework was created in 2021 for the purpose of creating simple static sites that load quickly. A key factor to its high performance is that, by default, webpages don't include any JavaScript. However, Astro gives users the ability to opt into using JavaScript wherever it makes sense in their projects. Astro also has the file based routing and server side rendering capabilities found in frameworks like NextJS. James Q.

Observability software helps teams to actively monitor and debug their systems, and these tools are increasingly vital in DevOps. However, it's not uncommon for the volume of observability data to exceed the amount of actual business data. This creates two challenges - how to analyze the large stream of observability data, and how to keep down the compute and storage costs for that data. Chronosphere is a popular observability platform that works by identifying the data that's actually being used to power dashboards and metrics. It then shows the cost for each segment of data, and allows users to decide if a metric is worth that cost. In this way, technical teams can manage costs by dynamically adjusting which data is analyzed and stored. Martin Mao is the Co-founder and CEO of Chronosphere and he joins the podcast today to talk about the growing challenge of managing observability data, and the design of Chronosphere.

The open source coding philosophy has enormous appeal to many software engineers, and with good reason. Open source libraries, applications, and operating systems are now essential to the overall technology ecosystem. And the number of open source projects is only increasing. But many developers don't know how to get involved in open source. Or, they may have even faced resistance when trying to make a pull request to their favorite open source codebase. Open Sauced is a platform to help developers get involved in open source development. While the number of GitHub stars on a project is often seen as a metric of success for a code base, Open Sauced focuses on the number of new contributors on a project. This number serves as a signal to help drive the platform's recommendation system, which pairs its users with open source projects in need of developers.

Temporal with Max Fateev 40:50

There are countless real world scenarios where a workflow or process has multiple steps, and some steps must be completed before others can be started. Think of something as simple as cooking dinner. First you look up a recipe, then you write down the ingredients you need, you go shopping, and then you cook. These steps must be run in a certain order, and the state of the workflow must be tracked throughout. Workflow management is everywhere in the software world, and today it's common for teams to engineer custom solutions. This makes sense, because creating a general-purpose solution for workflow management is a hard conceptual problem, and perhaps an even harder engineering challenge. Maxim Fateev has a deep background engineering distributed systems and workflow management services at Google, Amazon, and Microsoft. In 2015, he joined Uber and helped create the open-source project, Cadence, which is an orchestration engine to execute asynchronous long-running business logic. The success of Cadence led Max to co-found Temporal, which is an open-source programming package for workflow execution. Max joins the show today to talk about the engineering challenges at Temporal, the concept of "durable execution”, how he organizes his engineering teams, and more.

Speech technology has been around for a long time, but in the last 12 months it’s undergone a quantum leap. New speech synthesis models are able to produce speech that's often indistinguishable from real speech. I'm sure many listeners have heard deep fakes where computer speech perfectly mimics the voice of famous actors or public figures. A major factor in driving the ongoing advances is generative AI. Speechlab is at the forefront of using new AI techniques for realtime dubbing, which is the process of converting speech from one language into another. For the interested listener, we recommend hearing the examples with President Obama speaking Spanish or Elon Musk speaking Japanese. Check out the show notes for a link to the video. Ivan Galea is the Co-founder and President at Speechlab and he joins the show to talk about how we're on the cusp of reaching the holy grail of speech technology - real time dubbing - and how this will erase barriers to communication and likely transform the world. This episode is hosted by Lee Atchison. Lee Atchison is a software architect, author, and thought leader on cloud computing and application modernization. His best-selling book, Architecting for Scale (O’Reilly Media), is an essential resource for technical teams looking to maintain high availability and manage risk in their cloud environments.

If you're a developer, there's a good chance you've experimented with coding assistants like GitHub Copilot. Many developers have even fully integrated these tools into their workflows. One way these tools accelerate development is by autocompleting entire blocks of code. The AI achieves this by having awareness of the surrounding code. It understands context. However, in many cases the context available to an AI is limited. This restricts the AI's ability to suggest more sweeping changes to a codebase, or even to refactor an entire application. Quinn Slack is the CEO of Sourcegraph . He is now hard at work on the challenge of giving more context to AI - to make it aware of entire codebases, dependencies, error logs, and other data. Quinn joins the show today to talk about what it takes to move beyond code autocomplete, how to develop the next generation of coding AI, and what the future looks like for software engineers and programming languages. Josh Goldberg is an independent full time open source developer in the TypeScript ecosystem.

Maritime logistics is the process organizing the movement of goods across the ocean. Historically, this has been a challenging problem because of the multinational nature of shipping, as well as piracy, smuggling, and legacy technology. It's also profoundly important for security reasons, and because 90% of what we buy travels over the oceans. Ocean vessels produce a lot of CO2, which adds climate change and energy dimensions to maritime logistics. Windward AI is a maritime logistics platform that was started 13 years ago by two ex-Israeli naval officers. The idea for the company came from the observation that, at that time, it was hard or impossible to know what's happening on the deep sea. Benny Keinan is the VP of R&D and Lior Resisi is the Data Platforms Group Lead at Windward AI.

If you're a developer, you've probably worked with an API, or application programming interface. An API is a set of rules for how to communicate with an applications or device. For example, when you build an app and want to use Stripe to handle payments, or use Slack to deliver notifications, it's APIs that make this possible. Handling communication between different applications was historically challenging, but with the growth of cloud computing and the need for smooth interoperability, APIs have become standard, and are now often considered essential to make a company accessible and visible. The growth of APIs is about to accelerate even more because of generative AI. The reason is that good APIs will be needed so AIs can write code to stitch together multiple systems. Postman is a popular application and platform for building and using APIs, and they recently released their 2023 State of the API Report. Joyce Lin is the Head of Developer Relations at Postman and she joins the show today to talk about the history of APIs, why APIs have exploded in popularity, and what the future looks like.

Edge Databases with Glauber Costa 51:37

۲ years پیش51:37

51:37

Picture a user interacting with a web app on their phone. When they tap the screen the app triggers communication with a server, which in turn communicates with a database. This process then happens in reverse to eventually update what the user sees on-screen. The latency for this round trip depends a lot on the physical distance between the user and the server. In a traditional web app, latency can be especially poor when the user and the server are separated by an ocean, and they must communicate through an underwater trans-oceanic link. However, with edge computing, multiple servers and data centers create a distributed system that greatly improves response times. Turso is an edge-hosted, distributed database based on libSQL, an open-source and open-contribution fork of SQLite. It was designed to minimize query latency for applications where queries come from anywhere in the world. Glauber Costa is the Founder and CEO of Turso and he joins us in this episode.
