Databases are key technology used in a large number of applications. There are different types and how we utilize them matters.

071 - Mistakes and Experimentation (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Mistakes and failures are a common part of software development. But the consequences depend greatly on whether the failure was part of an experiment or if it was a production incident. In this episode, Dave and Allan discuss how we approach failures and what we can do to help us prevent future mistakes. We also discuss the importance of experimentation, and the necessary components to make it safe to experiment.

Volatility means risk. We experience volatility in our companies and products. We experience it in our teams, our practices, and perhaps especially in code. In this episode, your hosts discuss the importance of recognizing volatility and discuss some ways to handle it.
069 - The Art of Code (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In prior episodes we've mentioned that although code can be art of itself, we usually focus on the value provided by the functionality from executing the code. But crafting code in a way that creates said value in a sustainable way is difficult, and how you go about it constitutes an art form of its own. In this episode, Allan and Dave discuss the difference between code as art and the art of coding. We talk about why this distinction matters both in the codebase and also to the coders.
068 - Wardley Mapping (opens the original)
Read excerpt
While exploring the concept of business strategy, Simon Wardley came up with a mapping concept to visualize the space you are playing in. In this episode, Allan and Dave explore a subset of these ideas and discuss how we've found them helpful in software development. We cover the basic concepts of a Wardley map, then how these maps can help us understand the changing landscape and make better technology decisions.
