The Unhandled Exception Podcast

In this episode, I was joined by Matt Pocock - creator of Total TypeScript, and the author of the wildly popular mattpocock/skills repo of agent skills, which work with any agent or model. We deliberately agreed beforehand not to plan this one, and just let the conversation go wherever it wanted to! We chatted about his grill-me and wayfinder skills, the death of tactical programming, the "smart zone" and the "dumb zone" of context windows, whether sprints still make any sense, and the era of personal software.

In this episode, I was joined by Tabish Bidiwale, the creator of OpenSpec! As a daily user (and big fan) of OpenSpec, this was a great honour to geek-out about it with the creator, and chat in general about coding with AI agents.

This was another live audience recording, hosted once again at the DDD South West conference in Bristol (UK) - two years on from the first live panel we recorded there. I was joined by a panel of speakers, and this time the conversation focused specifically on what AI means for software developers. After introductions, we dug into whether AI is going to take our jobs, how much code we actually still hand-write, whether (and how) we review every line of AI-generated code, what's going to happen to programming languages, and what advice the panel had for developers just starting out.

They both recently ran for the .NET Foundation’s board of directors, and were elected! 👏 We chatted about their experiences running for the board, what the election process was like, and their initial experiences as board members.
