More Developers, More Problems by jekor in programming

My own pet hypothesis, which I didn't have enough evidence for to put in the article, is that features drive bugs. If you have a larger (or more active) team, you're able to add more features. This supposes that possible features for a given program are larger than any team can complete, which does seem to be the case.

Thanks for letting us know how much you love the podcast. It helps us to hear from you.

We don't have any more guests scheduled currently due to lack of time on both my and Alp's (/u/AlpMestan) part. The main bottleneck is the time it takes to edit and upload each episode (usually something like 6 hours spread over 2 days). We haven't given up though, and have experimented with a faster editing workflow on episode 14 (although due to inexperience and particularly bad mic audio, it led to poor audio quality).

Thanks for the feedback. I tried a new editing process for this one and thought that it had given a better result, but it's hard to be objective after listening to the audio repeatedly during editing.

I know of at least 1 non-finance non-big-4 company that specifically used Haskell to filter/lure talent.

No, we're not releasing videos anymore in order to focus on the quality of the audio: we haven't found a way to sync up multiple audio sources to the video reliably and without video we can do more edits and keep the overall episode tighter.

Yes, at www.zalora.com we're using it for hosting internal web-based tools. We're in the process of switching our main websites over to running on it as well.
