Way Outside the Box ( Part 2 ft. Mark Miller) - .NET 102
It has been more than a year since we had Mark Miller on the podcast, which is too long, but he is back with us today to talk about outside of the box thinking. The first thing you need to know when thinking outside the box is that there is no such thing as impossible. Maybe it isn't financially feasible or would take an inordinate amount of time but it is not impossible. Next throw out any preconceived notions of what is required, untouchable or unquestionable. With those two in place you can do things like embed images in source...

Mark also addresses some commons misconceptions around React and Redux, such as: is React Context a perfect substitute for Redux (spoiler: it's not), and is Redux still relevant today (it is).

Are we ready to admit that we often actually don’t understand what’s going on? Mark Alfano joins Igor and Charles to discuss the importance of ‘intellectual humility’ when seeking a more accurate grasp of reality, the perils of poorly designed virtue education programmes, Nietzsche and his take on the intellectual virtues, and the training of machine-learning algorith...
