Episode 32 - Hot Tech-e: We are failing too late Cover

32 - Hot Tech-e: We are failing too late

In this episode of Hot Tech(e), Philippe Van Eerdenbrugghe and I talk about failure. Mostly about how we keep saying that we should fail early, and then somehow manage to do the opposite. We talk about bugs, TDD, experiments that become permanent by accident, product ideas that are not quite dead enough to remove, and code that was “good enough for now” until “now” became eighteen months. We also talk about the emotional side of failure. Because a failing test does not feel like shame. But a failing feature? A failing design? A failing product bet? That is harder. It was a really nice conversation about failing sooner, learning faster, and maybe not making engineers silently pay for every bad decision forever.

30 - Hot Tech-e: I can do TDD on the Front End (and AI) - Paul

Paul discusses the possibility and effectiveness of TDD on the front end, emphasizing the importance of testing based on behavior rather than syntax. He shares his experiences with TDD at the BBC and the early days of React, highlighting the philosophy behind front-end testing and the efficiency and confidence it brings. The conversation covers topics related to Test-Driven Development (TDD), AI, mutation testing, and the application of Extreme Programming (XP) and Agile practices in the context of AI. It explores the challenges and benefits of these practices, as well as the limitations and adaptations required when applying them to AI development. The discussion provides valuable insights into the intersection of AI and traditional software development practices, highlighting the potential for improved efficiency and quality in software development processes.
