Developer VoicesMaking Software Crash Before It Breaks (with Isaac Van Doren)At 23, Isaac is already jaded about software reliability - and frankly, he's got good reason to be. When your grandmother can't access her medical records because a username change broke the entire system, when bugs routinely make people's lives harder, you start to wonder: why do we just accept that software is broken most of the time?Isaac's answer isn't just better testing - it's a whole toolkit of techniques working together. He's advocating for scattering "little bombs" throughout your code via runtime assertions, adding in the right amount of static typing, building feedback loops that page...2025-06-1957 minDeveloper VoicesMaking Apache Kafka Diskless (with Filip Yonov & Josep Prat)How do you retrofit a clustered data-processing system to use cheap commodity storage? That’s the big question in this episode as we look at one of the many attempts to build a version of Kafka that uses object storage services like S3 as its main disk, sacrificing a little latency for cheap, infinitely-scalable disks.There are several companies trying to walk down that road, and it’s clearly big business - one of them recently got bought out for a rumoured $250m. But one of them is actively trying to get those changes back into the comm...2025-06-051h 29

He’s a Java & Kotlin programming, a JVM enthusiast in general, and an advocate for Spring, and he has chapters full of news about what’s been happening in Javaland over the past few years. Everything from new threading models to C interop changes, custom primitives to high performance computing and all the ways in which Java is modernising for age of AI workloads.2025-05-231h 24Developer VoicesThe State & Future of Apache Kafka (with Anatoly Zelenin)I’m joined this week by one of the authors of Apache Kafka In Action, to take a look at the state of Kafka, event systems & stream-processing technology. It’s an approach (and a whole market) that’s had at least a decade to mature, so how has it done? What does Kafka offer to developers and businesses, and which parts do they actually care about? What have streaming data systems promised and what have they actually delivered?

There are just so many parts that you have to implement before you even get to a decent prototype, and so many hours of work before you could begin working on the ideas that would make your database unique. Apache DataFusion is a project that hopes to change all that, but building an extensible, composable toolkit of database pieces, which could let you build a viable database extremely quickly, and then innovate from that starting point. And even if you’re not building a database, it’s a fascinating project to explain how...2025-04-251h 32Developer VoicesJupyter's Architecture Unpacked (with Afshin Darian & Sylvain Corlay)Jupyter’s become an incredibly popular programming and data science tool, but how does it actually work? How have they built an interactive language execution engine? And if we understand the architecture, what else could it be used for?Joining me to look inside the Jupyter toolbox are Afshin Darian and Sylvain Corlay, two of Jupyters long-standing contributors and project-steerers. They’ve going to take us on a journey that starts with today’s userbase, goes through the execution protocol and ends with a look at what Jupyter will be in the future - an ambitious framework for in...2025-04-101h 29

Is this a good idea for Kris Jenkins?2025-04-0915 minDeveloper VoicesNix, The Build-Everything Language (with Julian Arni)Ever since we invented makefiles, the programming world has been wrestling with the problem of building software stacks reliably. This week we’re going to look at one of the most ambitious solutions available - Nix. Nix tries to do everything from invoking your compiler to installing your language, and even providing your operating system. But how does it work in theory, and how well does it work in practice?Joining me to discuss is Julian Arni, a Nix-enthusiast and creator of a build/test/deploy service called Garnix.Nix has been one of my go...2025-03-271h 20Developer VoicesGraphite: Image Editing as a Syntax Tree (with Keavon Chambers & Dennis Kobert)Graphite is a new image editor with an interesting architecture - it’s a classic UI-driven app, an image-manipulation language, and a library of programmable graphics primitives that any Rust coder could use, extend or add to. The result is something that you can use like Photoshop or Inkscape, or make use of in batch pipelines, a bit like ImageMagick.Joining me to discuss it are Keavon Chambers & Dennis Kobert, who are hammering away on building a project that’s potentially as demanding as Photoshop, but with a more ambitious architecture. How can they hope to compete? Perh...2025-03-131h 17Developer VoicesReScript: A Better Typed JavaScript? (with Gabriel Nordeborn)ReScript is a strongly-typed programming language that compiles to JavaScript, and that puts it squarely in competition with TypeScript. So why would a JavaScript developer choose to learn it next? What does it offer that makes it a tempting proposition? And how are the ReScript developers making life easier for anyone who wants to make the switch?To answer all these questions and more, I’m joined this week by Gabriel Nordeborn, one of ReScript’s compiler contributors. --ReScript: https://rescript-lang.org/ReScript & React: https://rescript-lang.org/docs/react/latest/intro...2025-02-201h 32Developer VoicesA universal query engine in Rust (with Predrag Gruevski)Trustfall is a library based on a simple question - what happens if we can query absolutely anything? If you could join REST APIs and databases with filesystems and dockerfiles? It’s possible in theory because those are all just datasources. Predrag Gruevski is trying to make it easy by building a universal query engine, with pluggable datasources, all in Rust.This week we dive into Trustfall to figure out how it works. How do you model nearly anything as a datasource? How do you make it easy to extend?

Specifically a device called the µseq, which reads Lisp programs and uses them to drive synthesizers to make music. In this episode we go through the full platform that he's building, from soldering resistors to an RPi chip, up through writing a Lisp interpreter, to the design ideas that make Lisp a good choice for composing both software and music.–uSeq Homepage: https://www.emutelabinstruments.co.uk/useq/Emute Lab’s Homepage: https://www.emutelab.org/2025-01-231h 34Developer VoicesSoftware Systems Aren't Just Software (with Diana Montalion)If you want to build really large software systems well, you have to stop thinking of them as just software systems. Beyond a certain size, everything your software touches becomes part of the wider system. You’re part of the system, your users are part of the system, and every other employee & department & priority eventually forms part of that system. And that can make it incredibly difficult to make changes, or even to understand which changes will actually matter.That might be overwhelming, but there's hope. Understanding how systems work and how to improve them is something th...2025-01-161h 50Developer VoicesBuilding Fyrox: A Rust Game Engine (with Dmitry Stepanov)To kick off 2025 we’re looking at Fyrox a game engine built in Rust, largely by one person - Dmitry Stepanov. For an individual project, it’s covered an incredible amount of ground, covering the rendering and animation features you’d expect from a game engine, with some features that might surprise you - like Rust scripting support with hot-reloading.As we dive into Fyrox, Dmitry explains what it takes to build a game engine, why he chose Rust (and why he’s happy with the choice), and how one person can hope to build a project of that...2025-01-091h 43Developer VoicesTesting TVs At Scale With Elixir (with Dave Lucia)Integration testing is always a tricky thing, fraught with problems setting up the right environment and attempting to control the system’s state. That’s particularly true when you’re dealing with a mix of software and hardware, and even worse when you don’t have control of what the hardware can do.This week I’m joined by Dave Lucia of TVLab’s, who’s building systems for testing television software at scale, and it’s a problem that needs a huge variety of techniques to crack it. He’s using cameras, real time video processing, Erlang & Elixir an...2024-12-191h 16Developer VoicesProgramming As An Expressive Instrument (with Sam Aaron)Sam Aaron is the creator of Sonic Pi, one of the most unusual software platforms you’ll encounter. It’s a live-coding playground for making music. A tool that lets you write code that defines sounds and musical phrases, and build up a hole program that plays anything from a short bleep to a whole nightclub set. And Sam’s creator has been using it live for years, weaving drum & bass nights out of thin air, all driven by the Ruby-esque he writes.In this episode we go through Sam’s career path and design journey as we look...2024-12-051h 50Developer VoicesElm & The Future of Open Source (with Evan Czaplicki)Evan Czaplicki—the creator of the Elm programming language —joins me to discuss the state and future of Elm, the friendly, type-safe functional programming language. On many fronts Elm has been a huge success: it’s been popular with new and seasoned programmers alike; it’s helped push several language ideas into the mainstream; it’s been a key part of several successful software businesses and he even found himself employed as a kind of Language Designer in Residence. And yet, the material rewards of a successful open-source project were…lacking. Was he naive? Can an open-source developer stay true to open...2024-11-2850 minDeveloper VoicesProgrammers, ADHD, And How To Manage Them Both (with Chris Ferdinandi)This week we’re going to look at the most essential piece of firmware in a programmer’s toolkit - the brain. I’m joined by Chris Ferdinandi to explore what it’s like to be a programmer with ADHD. It’s an unusual topic for the channel, but the more I spoke to him, the more I wanted to know what coding is like when your brain is wired differently, how we can work more effectively with people with ADHD, and critically, how you manage coders with ADHD. And the answer to that comes full circle, in understanding how coders...2024-11-211h 39Developer VoicesMicroServices For Better And Worse (with Ian Cooper and James Lewis)What have we learned from more than a decade of deploying microservices? Was it a good idea? Are we any better at figuring out what a microservice is, or where its boundaries lie? Does splitting things up create fragmentation problems? And is it too late to put the genie back in the bottle? This week we’re going to look at all these questions and more as we reflect on the lessons learnt from this big architectural idea.This interview was recorded live at GOTO Copenhagen, with two microservice experts and thinkers: James Lewis of Thoughtworks and Ia...2024-11-1447 minDeveloper VoicesPony: High-Performance, Memory-Safe Actors (with Sean Allen)Pony is a language born out of what should be a simple need - actor-style programming with C performance. On the face of it, that shouldn’t be too hard to do. Writing an actor framework isn’t trivial, but it’s well-trodden ground. The hard part is balancing performance and memory management. When your actors start passing hundreds of thousands of complex messages around, either you need some complex rules about who owns and frees which piece of memory, or you just copy every piece of data and kill your performance. Pony’s solution is a third way - a nove...2024-10-311h 13Developer VoicesArchitecting a Rust Game Engine (with Alice Cecile)This week we take a look at Bevy, a new game engine written in Rust. And in particular, we look at a core component of Bevy that has something to teach you even if you never write a game: its Entity Component System, or ECS. An ECS is an approach to managing complex systems with large numbers of moving parts, that takes some inspiration from the Relational Database world, and a little from Functional Programming to build something entirely unique and surprisingly high-performance.Joining us to explain all is Alice Cecile. She’s part of the Bevy fo...2024-10-231h 18Developer VoicesWriting a CAD Language in Rust (with Adam Chalmers)Given how many languages have been written in C over the years, it’s not surprising to see new languages being written in Rust. What is surprising about this week’s guest is the domain he’s writing for: Computer Aided Design (CAD). Could Rust be sneaking its way into the CAD world too?Joining me to discuss the design and implementation of a CAD programming language is Adam Chalmers. He works at Zoo, developing KCL - a language that looks like JavaScript, runs on Rust, and offers users a seamless hybrid experience of both coding and point...2024-10-161h 22Developer VoicesText User Interfaces in Rust (with Orhun Parmaksız)For some kinds of application, there is no faster or cheaper way to build a user interface than in the terminal. Sure, it’s not going to suit every kind of user out there, but for those of us that are happy on the command line, rich Text User Interfaces (or TUIs) open all the exploration and discoverability benefits of a GUI are a fraction of the development time.This week we’re looking at a Rust TUI library with the excellent name ‘ratatui’.

Even if you moved as much of the data-management as you can out to 3rd-party services, you’d still have a tonne of work to do weaving together map tiles, routing information, GPS data, points of interest, search and more. And as if that wasn’t enough, you’d probably want that software to work on a whole range of platforms, so you have to build something that works on iOS, Android and more.

So it’s a little odd that it hasn’t changed that much in the decades since the terminal first came into being. Is the terminal a “completed” project? Or are there new ways to look at it that might make it even more useful?This week’s guest—Zach Lloyd—is convinced the terminal is ripe for a new approach that’s more than just a new coat of paint. And in this episode we dive into what that approach is, what he’s trying to do with the War...2024-08-141h 07Developer VoicesBuilding A Programming Language From Its Core (with Peter Saxton)A language’s AST—it’s abstract syntax tree—is nearly always a hidden implementation detail. It’s not treated as part of the language, but merely the intermediate step between parsing and compiling. But this week’s guest aims to flip that relationship on its head... Peter Saxton joins me to talk about EYG - an AST-first language that defines the fundamental capabilities first, and then stretches out from there to surface syntax and final execution. The result is something that can teach us a lot about how a typed, functional programming language works; how an exten...2024-08-071h 01Developer VoicesPractical Applications for DuckDB (with Simon Aubury & Ned Letcher)DuckDB’s become a favourite data-handling tool of mine, simply because it does so many small things well. It can read and write a huge number of data formats; it can infer schemas automatically when you just want to move quickly; and it can interface with most languages, run like lightning on the desktop or be embedded into a webpage. I’m a huge fan.But I’m not nearly as knowledgeable as this week’s two fans, Simon Aubury and Ned Letcher, who’ve just written a book on all the many ways you can use DuckDB and...2024-07-311h 08Developer VoicesRecording and Replaying the Browser (with Justin Halsall)RRWeb is based on a simple idea: If you capture all the DOM events in a browser session, and when they happened, you could play it back later. Play it back for diagnosing error conditions, for understanding your user’s journey, or for creating demo videos that can be edited element-by-element instead of frame-by-frame.Unfortunately, the simple idea gets tricky when you try to implement, for a whole host of browser specific glitches, differences, and places where the HTML5 spec ran out.

Every design decision is a tradeoff, and inevitably some of those tradeoffs get fundamentally baked into the way it’s built. Take storage for instance - Postgres tables are row-oriented; great for row-by-row access, but when it comes to analytics, it can’t compete with a dedicated OLAP database that uses column-oriented storage. Or can it?Joining me this week is Philippe Noël of ParadeDB, who’s going to take us on a tour of Postgres’ extension mechanism, from creating custom functions and indexes to Rust cod...2024-05-221h 07Developer VoicesDesigning Actor-Based Software (with Hugh McKee)The actor model is a popular approach to building scalable software systems.

That task falls to any system that “does stuff and remembers stuff”. But it’s quite hard to really optimise one system for both use cases. There are different constraints on new and old data, and as a system gets larger and larger, those differences multiply to breaking point. That’s something Twitter’s engineers were figuring out in the 2010s.One solution that came up in those years was the Lambda Architecture. A two-pronged approach that recognises the divide between new and ol...2024-04-2451 minDeveloper VoicesAdvanced Memory Management in Vale (with Evan Ovadia)Rust changed the discussion around memory management - this week's guest hopes to push that discussion even further.This week we're joined by Evan Ovadia, creator of the Vale programming language and collector of memory management techniques from far and wide. He takes us through his most important ones, including linear types, generation references and regions, to see what Evan hopes the future of memory management will look like.If you've been interested in Rust's borrow-check and want more (or want different!) then Evan has some big ideas for you to sink your teeth into.2024-04-171h 09Developer VoicesBringing Pure Python to Apache Kafka (with Tomáš Neubauer)The “big data infrastructure” world is dominated by Java, but the data-analysis world is dominated by Python. So if you need to analyse and process huge amounts of data, chances are you’re in for a less-than-ideal time. The impedance mismatch will probably make your life hard somehow.

Those last two are so interesting I sometimes wonder why those ideas haven’t been ported to every language going. How much work would it be?This week we’re going to dig right down into that question with Leandro Ostera. He’s been working on Riot - a project to bring the best of Erlang’s runtime system and philosophy to OCaml. But why OCaml? Is it possible to marry together...2024-03-271h 03Developer VoicesHow Apache Pinot Achieves 200,000 Queries per Second (with Tim Berglund)The likes of LinkedIn and Uber use Pinot to power some astonishingly high-scale queries against realtime data. The numbers alone would make an impressive case-study. But behind the headline lies a fascinating set of architectural decisions and constraints to get there. So how does Pinot work? How does it process queries? How are the various roles split across a cluster? And equally important - what does it *not* try to achieve.Joining me to go through the nuts and bolts of how Pinot handles SQL queries is Tim Berglund, veteran technology explainer of the realtime-data world.

The idea that, instead of writing unit tests we describe some property of our code that ought to always be true, then have the computer figure out thousands of unit tests that try to break that rule.For example, you might say, “No matter which page you visit on my website, there should always be a login button or a logout button.” Then the test’s job is to try to break that rule, but clicking around until it finds some combination of clicks fails that a...2024-02-281h 07Developer VoicesBridging the Gap Between Languages (with Martin Johansen)If you ever feel overwhelmed by the number of different programming languages, this week’s episode might just offer you some solace, as we talk about an attempt to reunify many of the most popular languages by focussing on the bread & butter things that every language supports.I’m joined by Martin Johansen, who’s been working on a new tool called Progsbase.

(with Tyler Cloutier)The world of game programming might seem a million miles away from 'regular' programming. But they still have to deal with the same kinds of data, scale and concurrency problems that we’re all familiar with in the software world. And that makes the gaming world an interesting place for new ideas - under the hood they’re solving those same problems we face, but often with some novel ideas about the solutions.

(with 'Ginger' Bill Hall)Odin’s creator, Bill Hall, makes some bold claims about the language, including that it’s “programming done right”. Before that starts a war on the internet, we’d best ask him to explain what that means, and how Odin tries to achieve it. And while we get deep into the details, overall his answer seems to be, “By gathering masses of feedback and then refining C until it feels joyous again.Of all the C-like languages we’ve looked at on Developer Voices, Odin seems to be the most at-ease with its progenitor.

For a simple example, think of GOTO. We’ve been wisely avoiding it for decades because it makes confusing control flow desperately easy. Types and tests are other examples - they’re as much about specifying what shouldn’t work as what should. And perspective is what makes this week’s topic particularly interesting: Roc is a language that’s functional, fast, friendly, and extremely interested in making your life easier by enabling some possibilities and restricting others.So this week we’re join...2023-12-201h 01Developer VoicesIf Kafka has a UX problem, does UNIX have the answer?

(with Ben Gamble)Ask any software developer about their favourite stack, and they'll probably have strong opinions. (They might even have a snappy acronym for it, like LAMP or JAM or...) But if you ask any business about their stack, things aren’t so clear. They'll probably tell you the key components, and then add a laundry list of extra parts that got glued on later.
