I was a little late for doing assembly on PC, but I very distinctly remember programming assembly games on a TI calculator. And I read this book on call it cryptography, make it sound cool. Codes, you know, Caesar's site for rail fence, the stuff you could do on a piece of paper and just sounded cool. So I remember writing a program that encode and decode in cipher and decipher strings. It all was again, just like what would be the other thing that you would do rather than this? This just seems right.
In this episode of the State of Developer Education podcast, Jon speaks with Tim Berglund, Vice President of Developer Relations at StarTree, a cloud-based software company enabling business customers to derive advanced insights from real-time and historical data. Previously, he was the Senior Director of Developer Advocacy at Confluent, and was also the Vice President of Developer Education at DataStax.
Together, they discuss what has and hasn’t changed in the world of developer education, why hardware feels so magical when compared to software, and why being a teacher and an outstanding developer are two completely different skills. They also get into how our lives can sometimes feel directionless, especially in the world of coding.
