Is the future of work co-located, hybrid, or online? How can we efficiently integrate design & development teams around agile ways of working? Are there any shortcuts in that process? Our guests, Gabi & Panu, bring unique theoretical and practical perspectives to the table. Tune in and share this with your teammates. 😉 Guests Panu Korhonen is a designer and has been in this business since -86. That is NINETEEN-eighty-six - almost 40 years ago. So he has seen quite a lot of different ways of doing design and development of digital products. Most of the design processes have been quite bad. Therefore, he is constantly looking for ways to shake the thinking on this, especially his own. Gabriella Ingman is an agile coach, in her 6th year at Reaktor. She facilitates, trains and coaches individuals, teams, and organizations through change toward better Monday mornings for employees, customers, and the organization as a whole.

53:59

Is development becoming obsolete? We invited Miku and Pauliina to talk about software engineering — how the roles have been shaping, what the current trends and challenges are, and how we can shape the future of our profession. Tune in and join our semi-practical, semi-philosophical conversation. Guests Pauliina started her career as a communications consultant, but slowly life took her back to her childhood hobby - coding. She moved all the way to Australia to study at a coding bootcamp and has now been working as a software developer for over 5 years. She still thinks it was the best decision of her life. What she loves most about coding is how tangible it feels to build software one piece at a time and how rewarding it is to solve problems with technology. In her free time,, you will find her on a yoga mat or wandering in a forest. With nearly 20 years of experience, Mikael is a passionate, future-oriented technology leader with a cultivated interest in cutting-edge technologies and the methodologies of creating exceptional digital products. While he currently has limited time to actually code at work, he still does it as a hobby. Mikael is a fan of functional programming and loves exploring new tech, surfing, and cooking. Mikael’s core expertise and interests are the design of technology organizations, technology strategy, business, and digital strategy, innovation, software and enterprise architectures, modern process methodologies, modern leadership, self-organization, systems thinking, data, and AI. Host Anna Fröblom is a great programmer, problem-solver, hobby photographer, lego enthusiast, and simply a nice person. Guest Host Ross Langley is a human-centered designer from Reaktor Helsinki. He loves helping teams excel in challenging environments. Ross shines when he does concept modeling, validates ideas, or makes celebrity impressions.

Deep dive into advanced TypeScript 52:44

Microsoft is arguably taking over the open source world. Esko, Paavo, Juuso and Sam debate the role the company plays in today’s open source community – TypeScript, GitHub, VS Code, npmjs.com and all – and discuss the advanced features of TypeScript. Guests Paavo Huhtala joined Reaktor at the age of 19. A self-taught hobbyist programmer since middle school, he likes pretty much everything – from writing compilers in Rust to adding that missing 0.5 pixels of left padding to the signups form's submit button. Juuso Mikkonen has been programming professionally since 2015 but still learns – mostly through mistakes – something new every day. His day-to-day tasks usually involve programming in TypeScript, building web services, remote teamwork and managing time zone differences. Sam Grönblom is from Finland but relocated to Tokyo a decade ago. He’s partial to pragmatic, statically typed functional languages, and he wishes he could only program in F#. Host Esko Lahti is a programmer who loves to have his weekly mind blowing experience caused by a yet another neat TypeScript typing system trick.

Cheers to the 14th trip around the sun of the language that’s made up of data! In this episode, Esko, Matti and Toni discuss Clojure, REPL, and how you can use them in your next project. Guests Matti Lankinen ’s programming career started from the little boy's dream of making his own games. C++ was too hard at the time, so he started making his own programming language. It was never finished. (Hands up, who can relate?) Toni Vanhala learned the alphabet by typing on the keyboard and copying BASIC programs his mother read aloud. A couple decades later, Toni got his Ph.D. after programming a custom gaze tracker, virtual humans that react to facial expressions, and a chair that senses emotions.

Two years ago, David and Tijn formed Amsterdam Hackers: a group of developers willing to conquer and learn from tech problems they had previously found impossible. In this episode, Esko talks to the two Amsterdam-based engineers about the group’s philosophy, as well as their two largest projects; the gbforth and Delisp. Guests David Vázquez grew up sitting next to his father, watching him code in Clipper. Having coded in Microsoft Access and Visual Basic, he got into Linux and C around 2002. David then learned Emacs and Lisp that introduced him to programming language design and implementations. The rest is history. Tijn Kersjes discovered programming as a kid when he realised you can create games rather than just play them. Eventually, he decided to combine his two passions (drinking coffee and writing code) into a software development career. Host Esko Lahti is an engineer who enjoys team work over solo work of any kind.

The Promise of Tasks: Concurrency in a Single Threaded World 32:51

Multiple threads or only one thread, and why should it matter? Blocking or non-blocking IO, and what benefits do each of them offer? What’s the problem of using callbacks? Hold on to your hats, folks – in this episode, Esko, Andy and Otto plow through some of the most fundamental questions regarding runtime environments. Guests Andy Davies is a software developer who likes making other developers’ lives easier, usually by providing libraries, tooling, infrastructure, build systems, and ways of working. He likes keeping things simple. He doesn't like Kubernetes. Otto Paaso also likes simple things (and static types). For the past 12 years he has been working on embedded, desktop and web products, as well as the necessary backend and infrastructure technologies to make things rock. Host Esko Lahti is an engineer who wants to know how things work under the hood, no matter how many threads are involved. He has no horse in the Node.js vs JVM race.

Still writing bespoke functions and boilerplate to immutably manipulate a complex data structures? Statically typed optics will both do the heavy lifting for you, AND give your TypeScript hustle an unforeseen boost. Guest Petri Lehtinen started programming with Basic in the mid-90s. Open source projects and functional programming in typed programming languages are close to his heart. Host Esko Lahti is an engineer who saw the light after first encountering the partial.lenses optics library in 2017.

GraphQL has arguably changed the entire paradigm of writing full-stack web applications. In today’s episode, Esko, Ian and Dirk discuss GraphQL, Apollo, and Relay, and why they can, in good conscience, be called a web developer’s cheat codes. Guests Ian Fosbery is a big believer in good communication—both face-to-face, and through code. For the past 15 years, he has been building products, writing code, and getting excited about everything from good software design to devops and scale. Dirk Geurs is a technologist interested in creating high-performing software teams. Over the last year, he worked on various cross-platform mobile applications. Host Esko Lahti is an engineer who is lazy and loves to take the easy way out. (Editor’s note: No one has ever witnessed Esko take an easy way out of anything.)
