Jess LeeToday, @ben & I officially get to call ourselves podcast hosts. We are very excited to introduce you all to DevDiscuss, the show where me, Ben, and our lovely guests get to discuss the burning topics that pop up around DEV and beyond. The format of our show begins with an interview with one or two guests, and ends with commentary straight from the community. I’ve been hinting at this new podcast since I posted my first dial-in request back in March:
If you’ve responded to any of these threads, either by commenting or dialing our Google Voice number, you might hear your comment (and voice) on the show!
We kicked off our inaugural episode with a topic that software engineers often don’t consider: changing your name. We were inspired by Penelope Phippen’s (@penelope_zone) article, “Changing your name is a hard unsolved problem in Computer Science,” so we brought her into our fully distributed studio for an interview.
You can tune into the episode directly here on DEV (and continue browsing the site!), or any other platform that supports podcasts:
