Episode 98: Dino and Richard - tech bigotry

Discussion with Richard Campbell from DotNetRocks and Dino Gambone about technical bigotry. Initially kicked off with comment from Dino about lack of respect for dot net developers, but it touched on the wider topic of tribalism, bigotry and condescension between developer camps. Hopefully you'll find the discussion as interesting as I did.

Episode 97: Mass assignment, vulnerabilities and fun fun fun

Lots of small bits in this one - a lot of vulnerabilities on my mind this month - links in the show notes. Some are platform specific, some are just general "good practices", but all are still problems in 2012. Jetbrains has products on sale for 30% off until April 16 - PHPStorm, Intellij, RedMine, and more. Yahoo open sources Mojito, and the Beach Boys are back together!

Sorry to be so late posting this. I chatted with Jeff Carouth about his day to day worklife as a PHP guy (among other things) at Texas A and M. Learn the A and M mascot name, Jeff's favorite design pattern, and more :)

Episode 94: Keith Casey Interview from Zendcon 2011

I got a chance to sit down with (the legend) Keith Casey. Keith's well known in the PHP community with his web2project project (among other things) and is now poised to be a greater force in the worlds of Twilio and the Austin tech scene. Volume is a little quiet here, so turn it up to hear Keith's words of wisdom :)
