PVS STUDIO - PROMOTION Download here PVS-Studio NOW!
This episode is sponsored by the PVS-Studio team, who promote static code analysis methodology in general and its PVS-Studio tools in particular.
Static code analyzers allow you to find bugs in source code at the development stage. This helps to reduce the price of fixing them.
PVS-Studio performs code analysis and issues warnings on the fragments of code with a high probability of having bugs and potential vulnerabilities in them.
The tool supports C, C++, C# and Java, and it can work with Visual C++, GCC, Clang compilers, and some of those for embedded systems.
The analyzer works on Windows, Linux and macOS.
PVS-Studio can both be used as a stand-alone tool and also integrated with Visual Studio, IntelliJ IDEA, or SonarQube.
In the show notes, you can find links to the PVS-Studio website and the article ‘Technologies used in the PVS-Studio code analyzer for finding bugs and potential vulnerabilities’.

In this episode we complete our extended dive into AI with Ed Yau, this is part 3 of 3.
This all started back on Episode 101 be sure to go back and start your journey there.
Ed works as a Solution Architect at cloudThing, on behalf of a number of clients.
Having spent over 15-years in software development building different styles of Enterprise IT systems,
he is really excited about the potential for Machine Learning, Cognitive & Bot technologies which look to deliver more intelligent User Experiences (UX) for applications.
This is considering UX in the fullest sense, as a fullstack discipline.
In an area that is flooded with hype, Ed is here today to explain what developers need to know to get started with AI,
and what is happening in the evolving world of bot technologies.
Ed was last on the show back on episode 44 where we talked about Bots and how they were taking over the tech space,
just over a year later he's back today to give us more insight into the current world of AI.

In this episode we talk to Brandon Lyons about Vue.js, another front end technology for Javascript.
Where will it end!? do we really need another framework?
anyway...
Brandon is a Brandon fullstack web developer, with a passion on the frontend development, specifically Vue.js.
He currently working at Mcity, an automated vehicle proving grounds located at the University of Michigan.
Brandon first got into web development in high school by making basic html websites, and has been working for the University of Michigan
doing web development for a little over a year now.
The first time Brandon used Vue was while building an account and data management SPA for the University hospital.
Since then, he has grown to appreciate Vue even more and has become fully emersed in its ecosystem.
On a daily basis Brandon uses Vue.js and python to build a suite webapps for Mcity including an Account Manager,
Project Tracking SPA, and my personal favorite, a frontend interface for Mcity’s traffic control api.

In this episode I wanted to talk about a topic which I think a lot of developers suffer with at some point in their career, especialy those who are always rivng to better than they were yesterday, and that is losing your confidence as a developer.
I personally beleive it is tightly linked with Imposter syndrome and can be triggered in many ways, it can have an affect on your personal and your professional life a like.
In this episode we talk with Matt Ellis about the cross platform IDE Rider from JetBrains.
Matt is a developer slash developer advocate at JetBrains, he has spent over 20 years shipping software in various industries and currently works with IDEs and development tools, having fun with abstract syntax trees and source code analysis.
He has worked on several open source projects, with a heavy leaning towards plugins for JetBrains tools, from something useful, like adding xunit.net test runner support to ReSharper, to something less useful, such as Clippy for ReSharper. Yes, really. His current favourite side project is the Unity support in Rider.

As developers we are opinonated by nature, we are surrounded by them every day, even the technology we use is opinionated, but do you even know what an opinion is? most confuse opinion with fact.
There are two kinds of opinions and we dicuss those today.

In this episode we speak to Stuart Mitchell about security in IoT.
http://cynicaldeveloper.com/podcast/87/
Stuart Mitchell is the CEO of the IoT start-up mokanix, which is a Tata Communications business incubated in the company’s ‘Shape the Future’ programme.
The inspiration for mokanix came from wondering why mobile operators didn’t allow access to some of their core control functionality via easy-to-use APIs.
The venture has been established to see what us software developers could make given greater control and security on their mobile data connections.
Stuart is an industry veteran and innovator.
His career in wireless telecommunications spans over 20 years during which time he has worked in a variety of cutting-edge vendors: both large corporates and start-ups.
His experience is as diverse as radio paging and internet security solutions and Stuart worked at the forefront of both VOIP and photo messaging: both of which we take for granted today.
Stuart started his career as a broadcast engineer and still has a passion for playing and listening to music and podcasts.
He is usually found in airport lounges or speaking to customers while walking his over-enthusiastic dog in the fields near where he lives.

http://cynicaldeveloper.com/podcast/86/
For some reason us techies have some kind of mental ad blocker in our heads when it comes to talking to about technical stuff to non technical people.
And I'll admit it can be hard to talk about such technical things in a way the average person can understand, I'm not going to say normal person as well what is normal?
But anyway, checkout this weeks episode for some quick tips on how to talk to those nontechnical folks.

This is not Marten's first appearence on the podcast, we spoke to him back on Episode 49, and that was about F#
Mårten has been programming for more years than not and is equally interested in functional programming as assembly programming.
He occasionally blogs about functional programming or performance.
Mårten believes that reading existentialcomics.com once a week qualifies him as a postmodern philosopher-developer.
