In this episode, Jon speaks with Viktor Gamov, Principal Developer Advocate at Kong, a cloud connectivity company backed by the likes of Jeff Bezos (Amazon) and Eric Schmidt (Google). He is the co-author of books Kafka in Action and Enterprise Web Development. Prior to this, he worked for Confluent as a Developer Advocate. With years of experience under his belt, he is doing his utmost to help others learn software development. 

They discuss how information is far more easily accessible in the 21st century, how much time and research it took to write his books, whether or not technology is indistinguishable from magic, and what the process of working for Kong is like. They also dive into building software for customers who could potentially know more than you.
