Derick, do you want to introduce your self really quickly? DERICK:  Sure. Derick Bailey, obviously. I work for Kendo UI at the moment. We build HTML 5 and JavaScript controls for the web and global and all kinds of fun stuff. I’ve been working in JavaScript off and on for, let’s see, it was released in ’94. So, about 19 years, I guess. I got into it right when it was first out in Netscape 2.0 and it was a love/hate relationship for a long, long time until I finally found that I really do love it in the last couple of years and started working with it full time. I’m just enjoying the heck out of it at the moment with all of this server side stuff we can do in Node.js and all the big apps we can build with Backbone and Ember and Angular and everything else. CHUCK:  Nice. JOE:  That was a lot of enthusiasm, I liked it. MERRICK:  Yeah. CHUCK:  Yeah. It’s like JavaScript’s cool again or something. DERICK:  Yeah, it’s crazy. Everything old is new again.

This week on our panel, we have Jamison Dance. JAMISON:  Hello, friends. CHUCK:  Merrick Christensen. MERRICK:  Hi. CHUCK:  I’m Charles Max Wood from Devchat.tv and this week, we have a special guest and that’s Zach Kessin. ZACH:  Hey everybody. CHUCK:  Did I say your name right, Zach? ZACH:  Yep, you got it right. CHUCK:  Alright. This week, we’re going to be talking about functional programming in JavaScript. You want to give us a little bit of a background on you, so that you can kind of explain, I don’t know, who you are and your expertise here? ZACH:  Oh, okay. So yeah, I’m Zach Kessin. I’ve been a software developer for close to 20 years, on the web, close to 20 years now. My first web app in PHP version -- oh, not PHP, in Perl version 4 with mSQL, because MySQL didn’t exist yet. That was, like, 1994. And let’s see, I’ve been doing web applications ever since. Worked in Boston area, in London and then in Israel for about 10 years now. I’m also the author of ‘Programming HTML5 Applications’ and ‘Building Web Applications with Erlang’, both published by O’Reilly. And my interests include functional programming, code generation and concurrency in Erlang. So, well, that’s a different show. That’s sort of my background. And I work at a small Tel Aviv startup called Product Structure that we build [inaudible] components and workflows that will be self-optimizing on your website. So, that’s what we’re doing. We’re launching it soon. CHUCK:  Cool. MERRICK:  Very cool. CHUCK:  You just launched your own podcast, didn’t you? ZACH:  Yeah. I just launched my own podcast called ‘Mostly Erlang’. It’s going to cover Erlang and occasionally other functional languages like Haskell and OCML. We had our first, we recorded our first episode last week. And the first episode is called ‘Building Skynet’. And the second episode will be on the Webmachine framework, which is an HTTP framework, backend framework though, to do semantically correct Webmachine.

BRIAN:  Sure, my name is Brian Hogan and I’m a web developer and I like to spend a lot of time hacking on code in Ruby and JavaScript. I also am an author. I’m a development editor with The Pragmatic Bookshelf. And I have a fabulous new gig where I get to teach brand new programmers how to get started programming now. So, that’s what I’m doing myself. CHUCK:  So where’s that at? AJ:  Cool. BRIAN:  That’s at a little technical college in Eau Claire, Wisconsin called Chippewa Valley Technical College. CHUCK:  Oh, cool. Yeah, speaking of your reviewing books for The Pragmatic Bookshelf, Ruby Rogues, we actually interviewed Bruce Williams and John Athayde about The Rails View this morning. They mentioned you, and I was like “Oh, we’re talking to him in a couple of hours.” BRIAN:  Oh, those are some great guys and that’s a great book. CHUCK:  Yup. So, the reason we brought you on the show is because, at least in my case, I know absolutely nothing about building accessible websites.

And we have a special guest, Todd Parker from the jQuery UI team. TODD:  Hey everyone. CHUCK:  You want to introduce yourself really quickly? TODD:  Sure. My name is Todd Parker. I am a partner here at Filament Group in Boston. We’re a small web design shop. And I’m also the project lead for the jQuery Mobile team. And previous to that, I was on the jQuery UI team as well. So, I’m both covered. CHUCK:  Did I say jQuery UI? I meant jQuery Mobile. TODD:  You did. I was covering for you though, it’s okay. CHUCK:  [Laughs] Awesome. Before we get too far into this, I want to make one announcement and that is that I’ve set up an Indiegogo campaign for the network of podcasts that this is a part of. So, we’re trying to build a website that has all the features that people have been asking for. Mostly it has to do with search and some RSS feed management stuff. So, if you would like to support the show, then by all means do so. You can do it by going to Indiegogo.com/projects/DevChat-tv. And I’ll put a link to the show notes so that you can find it. Alright. Well, let’s talk about jQuery Mobile here. I’m a little curious. I’ve played with it a little bit, but I haven’t really had to build too many Mobile sites. So, can you explain a little bit about what the focus is and how it’s different from the jQuery that we all know and love? TODD:  Sure. So, jQuery Mobile started its life, it’s very similar in concept to jQuery UI, so it’s a user interface framework that’s built on top of jQuery core. The difference between UI and Mobile is obviously UI is much more desktop focused, and Mobile is mobile focused. That said, jQuery Mobile, from the beginning,

The first thing that I want to ask is, the semi-holy war between Windows machines and Macs and Linux machines. What are you guys all using for your development? MERRICK:  I use Mac. I feel so lost anytime I’m on a Windows machine and set. AJ:  I only use operating systems. So, the only two that I know of that are readily available are Mac and Linux. CHUCK: [Laughter] How about you, Joe? JOE:  I use both, significantly. CHUCK:  Both, meaning both Windows and Mac? JOE:  OSX and Windows. I don’t use Linux. CHUCK:  Awesome. I mostly use Macs.

CHUCK:  Does that make it older than jQuery? DYLAN:  It does, yes. JQuery, I think, started about seven years ago, maybe. Six or seven years ago. CHUCK:  I remember seeing a couple of websites built in Dojo way back in the day. I don’t remember exactly which ones they were. For some reason, I got the impression that it was a framework, but it’s more of a toolkit. It’s much more like jQuery than it is like, say, Backbone or Ember or any of those. DYLAN:  It’s kind of everything. You can use it as a simple toolkit like jQuery. You have DOM manipulation,

JAMISON:  I was reading on Wikipedia, as one does when you’re trying to learn about something. It says it’s a psychological term for long-term exhaustion and diminished interest in work.

I’ve been writing JavaScript for five years now or something like that. I just picked it up. I was sick of the engineers at my company telling me that things were impossible. So, I started to show them that it was possible and then ended up getting paid more money. CHUCK:  Is that at Instructure or is that somewhere else? RYAN:  No, that was at a company actually in Idaho. CHUCK:  Ah, I see. RYAN:  So now, I work at Instructure. We build a learning management system for schools and universities. We also have Canvas.net, which is open courses for anyone to take. There are some pretty interesting ones on there like gender and comic books, things like that. It’s a fun place to work, fun product to work on. CHUCK:  Yeah, you inherited a lot of my old coworkers. I used to work for Mozy. RYAN:  Yeah, half our engineering team used to be Mozy.

CHUCK:  And Merrick Christensen. MERRICK:  Hey guys. CHUCK:  I’m Charles Max Wood from DevChat.TV. And this week, we’re going to be talking about, I think it’s kind of a blend of making the transition from one primary language to JavaScript, it usually happens through web development, and some of the mistakes that people make when their primary language is not JavaScript. Let’s go ahead and get started. Merrick, you’re kind of the expert guy that I always look at and go, “Man, he’s awesome at JavaScript.” So, I’m wondering, did you start out at JavaScript or did you come in from somewhere else? MERRICK:  Oh, that’s really nice of you, man. I actually started out with ActionScript. I really loved Flash developments, but it’s the same thing, really. They’re both based off of ECMAScript. So, I guess you could say I’ve always done JavaScript. JOE:  So, ActionScript is nearly identical to JavaScript? MERRICK:  Well, not anymore. ActionScript 3 developed classes and they typed it and they did some interesting things to make it more of a full-featured language. It’s got more [inaudible] than JavaScript now, I think. But I ended up getting into JavaScript when I was like 17 or so. I came across the MooTools framework and ever since then, it’s been all JavaScript all the time. CHUCK:  You’re pretty young. Wasn’t that last year? [Laughter] MERRICK:  Close. No, about six years, five years of JavaScript. JOE:  You’re also, though, like a real student of languages. You love studying other languages. MERRICK:  I love programming languages, yeah. JOE:  I think you’re a pretty funny, not necessarily unique,

I’m writing a book on the next version of ECMAScript and a dad with three kids. So yeah, that’s me. JOE:  Aaron’s too modest. He’s also a big-time conference speaker. He’s a regular presenter at local user groups. And like I said before, he’s one of our evangelists, so he was hired as a really high-level frontend engineer here at Domo to help us take our JavaScript and frontend work into the next level, really. CHUCK:  Yeah, I also showed up late to a workshop that he was putting on using Node and Twilio and that was pretty cool. JOE:  Yeah, that thing has been the bomb. Also, Aaron’s presentation at Fluent Conf with Dave Geddes was apparently the hit of the entire show, the best received. The organizer said he thought it was definitely one of the best presentations done at Fluent Conf. AARON:  Yeah. They said it was the most entertaining and Simon said he wished we could cut it down in ten minutes and that they had made us keynote, because it was pretty fun. We had a lot of fun with it.

CHUCK:  Jake, do you want to introduce yourself for the folks who haven’t heard of you before? JAKE:  Sure thing. I work on the Google Chrome team as part of DevRel. What I’m doing there is a combination of speaking at conferences about particular stuff. I got to do a lot in performance at the moment, but I also do a lot of standards work where I’ve done a lot with an alternative to application cache, which we’ll be talking about, but also looking at things like script loading and some of the resource priority stuff. CHUCK:  Cool. So it sounds like you’re smart on a number of levels then. JAKE:  Or dumb at all. [Chuckles] I can only see what I work on. I don’t know if I’m any good at it. [Chuckles] CHUCK:  So we brought you on to talk about the application cache. I’m not completely sure I know what is totally involved there. Is it just the cache like you clear the browser cache cache or is it something else? JAKE:  Well. the aim for the application cache was to let you make a site that works offline. So we’ve got the http cache and that works, in a manner of speaking. But if you have, say a website where you’ve cached your JavaScript, you’ve cached your CSS. You’ve cached your html page and some images. That’s great, but the user will visit another website and the browser will go and delete the CSS file from your site from the cache just to make room for the stuff from this other site. That means that if we were just going to use the http cache for making things work offline, people go to your site, your html’s there, your images are there, your JavaScript’s there, but your CSS is not and that’s going to break your site.

I’m in an epic battle right now with the Scott toilet paper people. You’ll find me just below Scott toilet tissue. I’ve been blogging for ten years. More than ten years, 13 years. I work at Microsoft right now. Before that I worked in finance at a company called Corillian that is now Fiserv. I’ve been building big systems on the web for as long as the web’s been around. CHUCK:  Wow. What do you do at Microsoft? SCOTT:  I work in Azure and Web Tools. I’m a program manager. I’m in charge of the experience from file new project until deployment. I call myself the PM of miscellaneous. I spend time going through that experience making sure that it doesn’t suck. My focus is on web tools but also ASP.NET Runtime and what the experience is when you deploy something into Azure. That might be everything from what’s it like editing JavaScript in Visual Studio and I’ll find some issue and go and work with the guys that own that, or it might be someone’s trying to do something in Node on Azure and that experience is not good. I’m like an ombudsman or a customer liaison. But the simplest way would be to say I’m the community PM, community program manager, for web tools at Microsoft. CHUCK:  Okay. AARON:  Cool. CHUCK:  So, is JavaScript your primary focus? SCOTT:  I would say that my primary focus is just anything that makes the web better and moves the web forward.

JOE:  Hey there. CHUCK:  I’m Charles Max Wood from DevChat.TV. And this week, we’re going to be talking about screencasting and sharing what you know through that kind of a visual medium. Before we get going, I’m wondering how much of this have you guys done? JAMISON:  None. JOE:  [Chuckles] I’ve done a fair amount. I’ve got my three courses with Pluralsight that I’ve done. That’s pretty much all the screencasting that I’ve done, is through Pluralsight. But I have to say I’ve definitely done a fair amount, several hundred, maybe a thousand with the screencasting. CHUCK:  Nice. JAMISON:  When you say a thousand hours, do you mean a thousand hours of recorded video or a thousand hours of time put into this? JOE:  Yeah, a thousand hours of time actually spent. So I’ve probably produced ten or fifteen hours of recorded video. Probably about that much and five or six hundred hours of time spent producing that much video, right around that. CHUCK:  Well there you go. If you’ve read outliers, you know you have nine thousand hours to go, right? JOE:  [Chuckles] Yeah. Exactly when I’ll be an expert. CHUCK:  That’s right. I’ve done a fair bit of screencasting as well. In fact, I got into podcasting through screencasting and I ran TeachMeToCode.com for a few years.

But yeah, it’s definitely a fun and interesting thing to do to share what you know and get the word out about whatever technologies you’re passionate about.

CHUCK:  Since you guys haven’t been on the show before, do you want to introduce yourselves? We’ll have Pete go first. PETE:  Sure. So my name’s Pete. I work on general React stuff these days. But my day job is building the Instagram web experience. If you go to Instagram.com, we have a bunch of frontend stuff you can play with and a bunch of backend infrastructure that supports all that. That’s what I mostly work on. We’re big users of React at Instagram so I ended up contributing a lot to the React core as well. JAMISON:  So did you come from Instagram or from Facebook and then to work on Instagram? PETE:  Well it was actually a pretty good story just in terms of the integration of the two companies. I was originally at Facebook for a couple of years and we acquired Instagram and they came in and they wanted to build a web presence. Facebook’s core competency is definitely web technologies and Instagram hasn’t historically focused on that. So we were able to take the Facebook web expertise and get Instagram up and running really quickly. I came from the Facebook side but the team is still very much a separate team, their own building, that kind of thing. So that’s my background. CHUCK:  Awesome. JAMISON:  Sweet. CHUCK:  And Jordan?

You can find me online as @cowboy on Twitter or GitHub and I’m at BenAlman.com. And if you Google me, I have finally got enough SEO juice to beat the other Ben Alman who’s the Orthopedic Surgeon for sick children in Canada. So screw you, guy who helps sick kids. [Laughter] BEN:  No, it’s cool. It’s cool, right? But for a while, I was like, “Damn this guy.” But I can’t do anything because he helps sick children. So there’s another Benjamin Alman out there doing things for society and me, I just code. So, I work at Bocoup. We’re at Bocoup.com. Our logo is a rooster, Bob the Rooster, and we make a lot of cool web and open web and open source stuff. And so, I do training there. I teach people JavaScript and jQuery. But I also work on open source tools. I spend a lot of my time, actually, behind the scenes in Node writing JavaScript, experimenting, R&D, writing tools, et cetera. CHUCK:  Awesome. So,

I'm a software engineer that is working for Box currently. I think a lot of people probably know me from the books that I've written, mostly on the topic of JavaScript and the talks that I've given also on that topic. And a lot of that relates back to my work when I was at Yahoo. I was there for about five years and was the lead on the Yahoo homepage redesign. And a lot of what I do is really just try to solve problems in real life and then share what I did with everybody else in whatever way I think is most appropriate - writing or speaking or coming on podcasts.

We’ll have Marcus go first. MARCUS:  Sure. I'm Marcus Phillips. I'm a JavaScript enthusiast. I've been in it for a long time. Really excited about framework architecture and lately, all about teaching what I've learned over the course of time that I've been working in the Bay Area and working on the frontend of Twitter and things like that. Nowadays, I teach at Hack Reactor full time which is an immersive school for learning to become a developer over a period of three months. JAMISON:  Cool. CHUCK:  And which technologies do you teach at Hack Reactor? MARCUS:  We use JavaScript as our teaching language. Fundamentally, what we’re trying to do is teach people software engineering principles. So, JavaScript just turns out to be one of the most useful languages we can use to do that. But from there, we kind of want to give people practical skills that they can use immediately on the job. So, we definitely drive the entire curriculum out of GitHub repos and teach them some practical things like Backbone and Node and deployment strategies. So yeah, we kind of cover the gambit from frontend to backend with a focus on JavaScript in particular. CHUCK:  Awesome. That sounds really cool. JOE:  Yeah, it does. MARCUS:  It’s a lot of fun.

And before I introduce our guest, I just want to make a quick announcement. Tomorrow as we’re recording this, so when you get this episode it will be last Friday, is my Freedom Day. It’s the day I got laid off from my last full-time job and went freelance. So in honor of that, I’m putting together a video. I’ve called it ‘Going Rogue’. Yes, I know that there’s a political thing around that, whatever. Anyway, I called it ‘Going Rogue’. You can get it at GoingRogueVideo.com. It’s basically the first year of me going freelance. I’ve just talked through how it all went. The mistakes I made, the things I learned, the things I did right, and just gave general advice to anyone who’s looking to go freelance. Or if you’re interested in some of the challenges that come with that, it’s a video that I’m putting together to kind of explain that. Like I said, it’s free. You can get it at GoingRogueVideo.com. Yeah, I’m pretty excited about it. I’m also excited about Freedom Day. Anyway, we also have a special guest today, and that’s Alex MacCaw. ALEX:  How do you do? Thank you for having me. CHUCK:  You’ve been on the show before, but it’s been almost a year. Do you want to introduce yourself again? ALEX:  Well, I’m mostly a JavaScript programmer.
