Episode 621: You’re Totally Gonna Pay For It
Hosted by
Daniel Jalkut
Manton tells Daniel about the accidental mini-disaster he caused at Micro.blog while daring to deploy changes while on a cruise. They talk about the risk of losing trust with users when you make mistakes, especially repeatedly, and how unit testing might be a good protection against such problems. Then they talk more about Bluesky’s recent surge in popularity, and prospects for the future of the open web.
