53: Cache Machine
Laila and Derek go on a tour of the various caching mechanisms available to web applications in general, and Rails specifically. When is the right time to cache and at what level?
52: You're an Elixir Developer Now
Derek and Laila discuss Derek's excitement for Elixir and Phoenix. Is Elixir as fun to write as Ruby? Is Phoenix a better Rails?
51: Is Sim City Running? (Steve Klabnik)
We enjoy a wide-ranging discussion with Steve Klabnik on the importance of good documentation, the sometimes cloudy definition of a breaking change, the politics of open source contributions, and work/life balance or boundaries.
50: Open Mic
It's Open Mic day at The Bike Shed. We hear from other thoughtbot designers and developers about what they're excited to be spending their investment time on lately.
49: A More Practical Haskell
How can an ORM be faster than a SQL String? Laila and Sean discuss the latest happenings in Diesel and why it is that a systems language needs an ORM, anyway.
48: Is Everyone Trying Their Best?
Software is broken. In this episode, Derek and Sean discuss why exactly it's broken, and what we can do to make it better.
47: Star Wars Oranges
Ruby 2.3 is out! What are we looking forward to trying and what do we think of `&.` and `try`? Stick around after the credits for spoiler-filled discussion of Star Wars: The Force Awakens
46: Don't Breathe, Save the Planet
We discuss the maintenance burden of ActionCable and its dependencies on Rails 5, follow-up on Scenic issues, and discuss implementing migrations anew in Diesel.
45: I Think I'd Prefer An Error to Nonsense
Derek shipped Scenic 1.0, which spurs a conversation about semantic versioning and the value of the 1.0 milestone. We discuss what the bar for breaking changes in a library should be and look at some specific changes on tap for Scenic and whether they will or should carry a major version bump.
44: It Won't Crash... It Might Crash
Sean has shipped early versions of Diesel, an ORM for Rust! We discuss its semantic versioning, the ergonomics of use versus the complexities of implementation, early issues with the API and the road to Diesel 1.0.
