TypeScript [https://www.typescriptlang.org/] is a statically typed superset of JavaScript that adds optional type annotations and modern language features to improve developer productivity and code safety. The TypeScript compiler performs type checking at compile time, catching errors before code is run, and also transforms TypeScript code into clean, standards-compliant JavaScript. Jake Bailey [https://x.com/andhaveaniceday] is Senior Software Engineer at Microsoft where he works on TypeScript, and has made major contributions to the TypeScript compiler. Jake joins the podcast with Josh Goldberg to talk about TypeScript and his work.

He works on projects that help developers write better TypeScript more easily, most notably on typescript-eslint: the tooling that enables ESLint and Prettier to run on TypeScript code. Josh regularly contributes to open source projects in the ecosystem such as ESLint and TypeScript. Josh is a Microsoft MVP for developer technologies and the author of the acclaimed Learning TypeScript [https://www.learningtypescript.com/] (O’Reilly), a cherished resource for any developer seeking to learn TypeScript without any prior experience outside of JavaScript. Josh regularly presents talks and workshops at bootcamps, conferences, and meetups to share knowledge on TypeScript, static analysis, open source, and general frontend and web development.

Wiz [https://www.wiz.io/] is a cloud security platform that helps organizations identify and remediate risks across their cloud environments. The company’s platform scans layers of the cloud stack, including virtual machines, containers, and serverless configurations, to detect vulnerabilities and misconfigurations in context. The Model Context Protocol, or MCP, is emerging as a potential standard for connecting LLM applications to external data sources and tools. It has rapidly gained traction across the industry with broad backing from companies such as OpenAI, Microsoft, and Google. While the protocol offers great opportunities, it also introduces certain security risks. Rami McCarthy [https://x.com/ramimacisabird] is a Principal Security Researcher at Wiz. He joins the podcast with Gregor Vand to talk about security research, AI and secrets leakage, MCP security, supply chain attacks, career advice, and more.

ByteDance [https://www.bytedance.com/] is a global technology company operating a wide range of content platforms around the world, and is best known for creating TikTok. The company operates at a massive scale, which naturally presents challenges in ensuring performance and stability across its data centers. It has over a million servers running containerized applications, and this required the company to find a networking solution that could handle high throughput while maintaining stability. eBPF is a technology for dynamically and safely reprogramming the Linux kernel. ByteDance leveraged eBPF to successfully implement a decentralized networking solution that improved efficiency, scalability, and performance. Chen Tang [https://www.linkedin.com/in/chen-tang-907a85170] is an engineer at ByteDance, where he worked on redesigning the company’s container networking stack using eBPF. In this episode, Chen joins the show with Kevin Ball to talk about eBPF, the problems it solves, and how it was used at ByteDance.
