Lily Mara pops into a slightly-more-chaotic-than-usual café to talk about Rust, and it's a far cry from the usual "let's rewrite everything" you may be expecting. While she chats with Bojan and Jason about refactoring to Rust, Jess and Annie try to figure out how to make the most of the latest magical glitch.…

Despite the crimes against pizza being committed by the unicorn, Marco Faella comes by the café to discuss seven principles for making code better. Is it possible that software can be truly good? Can code golfing make you a better developer? Will the ANSI committee ban pineapple on pizza forever? Listen for the answers, and way too many anchovies.…

Programmers learn by doing, right? Felienne Hermans chats with Bojan and Jason about how READING code may actually be even more important. So why it's so hard to understand someone else's code? The answer may be found somewhere between Shakespeare, trombones, and your ABCs. Now if Annie and Jess can only get the patrons to stop hacking their new ro…

Sedat Kapanoglu swings by the café to talk about "street coding," while the café's new barista, Jess, arbitrates a wager between Bojan and Alan Turing.

What do MRI scans, wood turning, and interpersonal networking have in common? They're all topics that Joshua Jacobs knows a thing or five about. Join him, Bojan, and Jason as they discuss everything from floating-point numbers in supervillain plots to the possible reasons why a statistician might have a beef with a programmer.…

Vaidehi Joshi stops into the café to help fix the temporal stabilizer, and stays to chat with Jason and Bojan about teaching, teams, and where bugs come from in the first place.

Anastasiia Tymoshchuk joins Bojan and Jason to discuss all things team management: blame vs. accountability, debugging the cause of a problem, zombies, timers and...planking? Maybe SHE can figure out why the espresso machine is dispensing garlic sprinkles.
