38:30

Chef Shuai Wang was the runner-up on the 22nd season of Bravo’s Top Chef and is the force behind two standout restaurants in Charleston, South Carolina—Jackrabbit Filly and King BBQ—where he brings together the flavors of his childhood in Beijing and the spirit of the South in some pretty unforgettable ways. He grew up just a short walk from Tiananmen Square, in a tiny home with no electricity or running water, where his grandmother often cooked over charcoal. Later, in Queens, New York, his mom taught herself to cook—her first dishes were a little salty, but they were always made with love. And somewhere along the way, Shuai learned that cooking wasn’t just about food—it was about taking care of people. After years working in New York kitchens, he made his way to Charleston and started building something that feels entirely his own. Today, we’re talking about how all those experiences come together on the plate, the family stories behind his cooking, and what it’s been like to share that journey on national TV.

I’m always interested in what factors shape the design of a programming language. This week we’re taking a look at a language that’s wholly shaped by its need to support a very specific kind of program - audio processing. Anything from creating a simple echo sound effect, to building an entire digital instrument based on a 17th-century harpsichord.

The language in question is Faust, and this week we’re joined by Romain Michon, who works on and teaches Faust, as we look at how it’s designed, what kind of programmers it's for, and how it does the job of turning audio-pipeline definitions into executable code.

And one of the surprising parts of that compilation strategy is the decision to have it compile to multiple targets, from the expected ones like C and Rust, to the exotic destination of FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Arrays). FPGAs are like reprogrammable circuit boards, and Romain dives into Faust’s attempts to go from a high-level description of an audio program, all the way down to instructions that tell a chip exactly how it should wire itself.

So rather aptly for a technology podcast, we start this week with what your ear can hear and go all the way down to logic gates and circuit boards…

Beyond AI Hype, What Will Developers Actually Use? (with Zach Lloyd) 1:18:06

לפני 12 ימים1:18:06

1:18:06

If AI coding tools are here to stay, what form will they take? How will we use them? Will they be just another window in our IDE, will they push their way to the centre of our development experience, displacing the editor? No one knows, but Zach Lloyd is making a very interesting bet with the latest version of Warp. In this deep dive, Zach walks us through the technical architecture behind agentic development, and how it's completely changed what he & his team have been building. Warp has gone from a terminal built from scratch, to what they're calling an "agentic development environment" - a tool that weaves AI agents, a development, a shell and a conversation into a single, unified experience. This may be the future or just one possible path; regardless it's a fascinating glimpse into how our tools might reshape not just how we code, but how we experience programming itself. Whether you're all-in on agentic coding, a skeptic, or somewhere in between, AI is here to stay. Now's the time to figure out what form it's going to take. # Support Developer Voices - Patreon: https://patreon.com/DeveloperVoices - YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DeveloperVoices/join -- Episode Links - Warp Homepage: https://warp.dev/ - Warp Pro Free Month (promo code WARPDEVS25): https://warp.dev/ - Previous Warp Episode: https://youtu.be/bLAJvxUpAcg - SWE-bench: https://www.swebench.com/ - TerminalBench: https://github.com/microsoft/TerminalBench - Model Context Protocol (MCP): https://modelcontextprotocol.io/ - Claude Code: https://claude.ai/code - Anthropic Claude: https://claude.ai/ - VS Code: https://code.visualstudio.com/ - Cursor: https://cursor.sh/ - Language Server Protocol (LSP): https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/ # Connect - Zach on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/zachlloyd/ - Kris on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/krisajenkins.bsky.social - Kris on Mastodon: http://mastodon.social/@krisajenkins - Kris on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/krisjenkins/…

The $500 Billion Integration Problem, And One Possible Solution (with Marty Pitt) 1:31:33

לפני 25 ימים1:31:33

1:31:33

Ever wondered why data integration is still such a nightmare in 2025? Marty Pitt has built something that might finally solve it. TaxiQL isn't just another query language - it's a semantic layer that lets you query across any system without caring about field names, API differences, or where the data actually lives. Instead of writing endless mapping code between your microservices, databases, and APIs, you describe what your data *means* and let TaxiQL figure out how to get it. In this conversation, Marty walks through the “All Powerful Spreadsheet” moment that sparked TaxiQL, how semantic types work in practice, and why this approach might finally decouple producers from consumers in large organizations. We dive deep into query execution, data lineage, streaming integration, and the technical challenges of building a system that can connect anything to anything. If you've ever spent months mapping fields between systems or maintaining brittle integration code, this one's for you. – Support Developer Voices on Patreon: https://patreon.com/DeveloperVoices Support Developer Voices on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@developervoices/join – TaxiLang Homepage: https://taxilang.org/ TaxiLang Playground: https://playground.taxilang.org/examples/message-queue-and-database Taxi Lang GitHub repository: https://github.com/taxilang/taxilang OpenAPI Specification (formerly Swagger): https://swagger.io/specification/ YOW!

Making Software Crash Before It Breaks (with Isaac Van Doren) 57:08

לפני 6 weeks57:08

57:08

At 23, Isaac is already jaded about software reliability - and frankly, he's got good reason to be. When your grandmother can't access her medical records because a username change broke the entire system, when bugs routinely make people's lives harder, you start to wonder: why do we just accept that software is broken most of the time? Isaac's answer isn't just better testing - it's a whole toolkit of techniques working together. He's advocating for scattering "little bombs" throughout your code via runtime assertions, adding in the right amount of static typing, building feedback loops that page you when invariants break, and running nightly SQL queries to catch the bugs that slip through everything else. All building what he sees as a pyramid of software reliability. Weaving into that, we also dive into the Roc programming language, its unique platform architecture that tailors development to specific domains. Software reliability isn’t just about the end user experience - Roc feeds in the idea we can make reliability easier by tailoring the language domain to the problem at hand. – Isaac’s Homepage: https://isaacvando.com/ Episode on Property Testing: https://youtu.be/wHJZ0icwSkc Property Testing Walkthrough: https://youtu.be/4bpc8NpNHRc Support Developer Voices on Patreon: https://patreon.com/DeveloperVoices Support Developer Voices on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@developervoices/join Isaac on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/isaacvando/ Kris on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/krisajenkins.bsky.social Kris on Mastodon: http://mastodon.social/@krisajenkins Kris on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/krisjenkins/…

Making Apache Kafka Diskless (with Filip Yonov & Josep Prat) 1:29:29

לפני 8 weeks1:29:29

1:29:29

How do you retrofit a clustered data-processing system to use cheap commodity storage? That’s the big question in this episode as we look at one of the many attempts to build a version of Kafka that uses object storage services like S3 as its main disk, sacrificing a little latency for cheap, infinitely-scalable disks. There are several companies trying to walk down that road, and it’s clearly big business - one of them recently got bought out for a rumoured $250m. But one of them is actively trying to get those changes back into the community, as are pushing to make Apache Kafka speak object storage natively. Joining me to explain why and how are Josep Prat and Filip Yonov of Aiven. We break down what it takes to make Kafka’s storage layer optional on a per-topic basis, how they’re making sure it’s not a breaking change, and how they plan to get such a foundational feature merged. – Announcement Post: https://aiven.io/blog/guide-diskless-apache-kafka-kip-1150 Aiven’s (Temporary) Fork, Project Inkless: https://github.com/aiven/inkless/blob/main/docs/inkless/README.md Kafka Improvement Process (KIP) Articles: KIP-1150: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-1150%3A+Diskless+Topics KIP-1163: Diskless Core: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-1163%3A+Diskless+Core KIP-1164: Topic Based Batch Coordinator: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-1164%3A+Topic+Based+Batch+Coordinator KIP-1165: Object Compaction for Diskless: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-1165%3A+Object+Compaction+for+Diskless Support Developer Voices on Patreon: https://patreon.com/DeveloperVoices Support Developer Voices on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@developervoices/join Filip on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/filipyonov Josep on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jlprat/ Kris on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/krisajenkins.bsky.social Kris on Mastodon: http://mastodon.social/@krisajenkins Kris on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/krisjenkins/…

DataFusion - The Database Building Toolkit (with Andrew Lamb) 1:32:10

לפני 14 weeks1:32:10

1:32:10

Building a database is a serious undertaking. There are just so many parts that you have to implement before you even get to a decent prototype, and so many hours of work before you could begin working on the ideas that would make your database unique. Apache DataFusion is a project that hopes to change all that, but building an extensible, composable toolkit of database pieces, which could let you build a viable database extremely quickly, and then innovate from that starting point. And even if you’re not building a database, it’s a fascinating project to explain how databases are built. Joining me to explain it all is Andrew Lamb, one of DataFusion’s core contributors, and he’s going to take us through the whole stack, how it’s built and how you could use it. Along the way we cover everything from who’s building interesting new databases and how you manage a large, open-source Rust project. – DataFusion Homepage: https://datafusion.apache.org/ DataFusion on Github: https://github.com/apache/datafusion DataFusion Architecture (with diagrams!): https://youtu.be/NVKujPxwSBA?si=tw9ACxlbdpBuVsnv&t=1045 Datalog: https://docs.racket-lang.org/datalog/ Tokio: https://tokio.rs/ Andrew’s Homepage: http://andrew.nerdnetworks.org/ Andrew’s Blog Post about Tokio: https://thenewstack.io/using-rustlangs-async-tokio-runtime-for-cpu-bound-tasks/ Velox: https://velox-lib.io/ Arroyo: https://www.arroyo.dev/ Synnada: https://www.synnada.ai/ LanceDB: https://lancedb.com/ SDF+DBT: https://docs.sdf.com/integrations/dbt/integrating Support Developer Voices on Patreon: https://patreon.com/DeveloperVoices Support Developer Voices on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@developervoices/join Kris on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/krisajenkins.bsky.social Kris on Mastodon: http://mastodon.social/@krisajenkins Kris on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/krisjenkins/…

This week we dive into Trustfall to figure out how it works. How do you model nearly anything as a datasource? How do you make it easy to extend?

Software Systems Aren't Just Software (with Diana Montalion) 1:50:14

לפני 28 weeks1:50:14

1:50:14

If you want to build really large software systems well, you have to stop thinking of them as just software systems. Beyond a certain size, everything your software touches becomes part of the wider system. You’re part of the system, your users are part of the system, and every other employee & department & priority eventually forms part of that system. And that can make it incredibly difficult to make changes, or even to understand which changes will actually matter. That might be overwhelming, but there's hope. Understanding how systems work and how to improve them is something that can be learnt, and improved at. So in the pursuit of better systems understanding, I’m joined this week by Diana Montalion, coder, architect, and author of Learning Systems Thinking. She takes us through how she sees systems, and how we can get better at discovering and understanding our own systems, as we both chew through some difficult systems we’ve worked on in the hope of figuring out how to do it better next time… – Learning Systems Thinking (book): https://www.amazon.co.uk/Learning-Systems-Thinking-Essential-Professionals-ebook/dp/B0D9KWZRT2 Diana’s Website: https://montalion.com/ Scientific Management (Tailorism): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_management Jay Wright Forrester: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jay_Wright_Forrester Support Developer Voices on Patreon: https://patreon.com/DeveloperVoices Support Developer Voices on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@developervoices/join Diana on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dianamontalion/ Diana on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@dianamontalion Kris on BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/krisajenkins.bsky.social Kris on Mastodon: http://mastodon.social/@krisajenkins Kris on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/krisjenkins/…

As we dive into Fyrox, Dmitry explains what it takes to build a game engine, why he chose Rust (and why he’s happy with the choice), and how one person can hope to build a project of that size. – Support Developer Voices on Patreon: https://patreon.com/DeveloperVoices Support Developer Voices on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@developervoices/join Fyrox Homepage: https://fyrox.rs/ The Fyrox Book: https://fyrox-book.github.io/ Rapier Physics Engine: https://rapier.rs/ The Mine (on Steam): https://store.steampowered.com/app/898980/The_Mine/ Dmitry’s Engine: https://github.com/mrDIMAS/DmitrysEngine GJK Collision Detection Algorithm: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gilbert%E2%80%93Johnson%E2%80%93Keerthi_distance_algorithm WPF: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Presentation_Foundation PICO-8: https://www.lexaloffle.com/pico-8.php Kris on Mastodon: http://mastodon.social/@krisajenkins Kris on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/krisjenkins/ Kris on Twitter: https://twitter.com/krisajenkins…
