Mike just signed up for a year of GitHub Copilot and Chris tries to understand why. Then we catch each other up on some recent surprises.
Mike's hitting the road to solve his old man's PC woes; Chris channels his early inner 80s and some Google AI conspiracy bacon.
You can't judge a book by its cover, and this week we surprised each other when we dug into the HP Dev One. Plus some insights on remote virtual dev desktops and the gotcha's from WWDC we missed.
We jump aboard Hair Force One and are a bit let down. We get into why. Plus Mike's first impressions of the HP Dev One laptop.
What's old is new again, but we're not buying it this time. It's developer conference season, and we're hunting vaporware.
Soon there will be no shame in that snake game, the big trend that is not our friend, and Microsoft reinvents the widget.
Why Mike feels like Heroku is in a failed state, what drove us crazy about Google I/O this year, how Chris botched something super important, and some serious Python love sprinkled throughout.
After solving a moral dilemma in our particular kind of way, Mike dishes on some ambitious plans that might kick off a new era of development for him.
Mike shares a tale involving a comedy of errors, and we ponder a new reusable culture around tech.
Mike battles the onslaught of yet another bout with the plague. At the same time, we react live to Elon buying Twitter, Gitlab kicking off some free accounts, and we discover Google and Apple are working together again to pull the rug on app developers.
We get a bit gleeful over some choice tech monopoly hypocrisy and then spicy with our 18-month outlook.
We revel in the hypocrisy of big tech, share a few stories, and catch up with an old friend.
