Matt Holt is the creator of the wildly successful Caddy web server. He's also a member of the restored Church of Jesus Christ, AKA the Mormon Church. . I am not. Can we both be right?

What is belief? Ep 17 - John Larsen

My guest today is John Larsen, a software developer from Norway, who enjoys PHP, and doesn’t seem to like Java very much. He was raised into a fringe Christian Church with 8 siblings, and after seeing that Church dissolve, got into his own path to test his faith, landing where he is today. At some point he has read 200 books in a year, with more than 40 in a month. We talked about the Church Fathers, the Didache, and had a very intellectually satisfying discussion about what constitutes belief.

The Save File Ep 16 - Josh Cirre

Josh Cirre comes from a creative background, but got into coding from a desire to help his customers. Now he works for Laravel as a Support Engineer and DevRel.   We talked about beauty, morality and logic, and how he views them as pointing to God. We talked about a main objection to all of that, which is the existence of the Raccoon, and played a nice thought exercise that illuminated the role faith plays in his life.
