One of my ex colleagues used to talk highly about The Software Engineering Daily and I finally got around to hearing it. Can’t believe I waited this long. What really stood out to me about it is how much first principles matter. I started hearing with an episode on Serverless Computing and it talks about so much of the basics in software engineering, right from how the basics of testing (test as close to production as soon as possible, faster the better), and logging (how good logging in the end helps you understand where the problem is and what your function is doing), and how log aggregation is just a tool.

Really into this now.
