The conversation explores the tension between emergent and designed architecture, the importance of sustainable versus &quot;slash-and-burn&quot; development approaches, and how architectural decisions scale with organizational growth. Key themes include the critical role of communication and coaching in architecture, the dangers of pattern cargo-culting, and the fundamental reality that all architectural challenges are ultimately people problems requiring empathy, shared language, and cultural change.

He envisions a future where AI eliminates programming barriers, democratizing computing power so anyone can instruct computers through natural language. While acknowledging concerns about job displacement and societal equity, Matt believes this transformation will unleash unprecedented human creativity by putting the full power of computing in everyone&apos;s hands, moving beyond the current &quot;programming priesthood&quot; to universal access to computational problem-solving.

The Death of Classical Computer Science • Matt Welsh & Julian Wood

This interview was recorded for the GOTO Book Club. http://gotopia.tech/bookclub Read the full transcription of the interview here: https://gotopia.tech/episodes/397 Patrice Roy - Author of &quot;C++ Memory Management&quot; Kevin Carpenter - Software Engineering Manager at EPX RESOURCES Patrice https://bsky.app/profile/patriceroy1.bsky.social https://www.linkedin.com/in/patrice-roy-a050b02a4 Kevin https://www.linkedin.com/in/kevinbcarpenter https://github.com/kevinbcarpenter Link https://www.eventbrite.com/e/c-memory-management-masterclass-tickets-1580340644409 DESCRIPTION Kevin Carpenter talked to veteran C++ programmer Patrice Roy. The conversation explores the intricacies of memory management in modern C++. Patrice, who has been programming in C++ for over 30 years and serves on the C++ Standards Committee, shares wisdom from his new book &quot;Memory Management in C++&quot; while discussing everything from the pitfalls of over-allocation to the nuances of smart pointers. The conversation reveals how proper memory management isn&apos;t just about performance—it&apos;s about writing safer, more maintainable code that leverages C++&apos;s powerful abstractions while avoiding common traps that lead seasoned developers astray.

She discusses the most common leadership skill gaps she sees in CTOs, particularly around setting clear expectations without falling into the &quot;micromanagement spiral of doom&quot;. Laura explains the development of the DX Core 4 framework for measuring developer productivity through four balanced dimensions: • Speed • Effectiveness • Quality • Impact She emphasizes the critical importance of connecting technical work to business outcomes, arguing that the era of engineering having a &quot;blank check&quot; is over and that today&apos;s leaders must think like business leaders who speak in terms of ROI and impact. The conversation with Charles Humble also covers emerging trends in AI-assisted development and unconventional approaches to performance management.
