In this podcast Michael Stiefel spoke with Randy Shoup about how to build resilient systems. We discuss why it is a serious mistake to fail to acknowledge that software’s interaction with itself and the real world produces fragility. Therefore, software systems must be built to be resilient to that fragility.
We also discuss where to use workflows, orchestration or choreography, the role of architecture in building good teams, and the wisdom of letting each team use their own set of tools.

EP15 - Developer Skills - Debugging

The world of computer programming is vast in scope. There are literally thousands of topics to cover and no one person could ever reach them all. One of the goals of the Coding Blocks podcast is to introduce a number of these topics to the audience so they can learn during their commute or while cutting the grass. We will cover topics such as best programming practices, design patterns, coding for performance, object oriented coding, database design and implementation, tips, tricks and a whole lot of other things. You'll be exposed to broad areas of information as well as deep dives into the guts of a programming language. While C# and Microsoft.NET are our preferred development platform, most topics discussed are relevant in any number of Object Oriented programming languages such as Java, Ruby, PHP, etc.. We are all web and database programmers so we discuss Javascript, HTML, SQL and a full spectrum of technologies and are open to any suggestions anyone might have for a topic.  So please join us, subscribe, and invite your computer programming friends to come along for the ride.
