• Joe Eames
• AJ O'Neal
• Special Guests: Orta Therox

In this episode, the JavaScript Jabber panelists talk about the tool Danger with Orta Therox. Danger allows you to create cultural rules about your pole request workflow. They discuss what Danger is, how it works, and how it can help you to catch errors and speed up code review. Danger lets you erase discussions so that you can focus on the things that you should really be focusing on, like the code. They also compare Danger to other ways of doing test converge.

In particular, we dive pretty deep on:

• What is DangerJS?
• Think of it as being on the PR level
• Provides an eval context
• Used on larger projects
• React, React Native, Apollo, and RxJS
• Experimenting with moving Danger onto a server
• Danger can run as a linting step
• Pre-commit hooks
• Prettier
• How do you use Danger on your own machine?
• Danger Ruby vs Danger JS
• NPM install
• How is using Danger better that other ways of test coverage?
• What kinds of rules can you write for this system?
• Can use with Ruby or JavaScript
• React Storybooks
• Retrospectives
• And much, much more!

Episode Summary

Dominik Kundel works as developer evangelist at Twilio. Dominik talks about the history of Twilio, which actually started with integrating phone calls into apps and then moved to SMS integration. 

Today Charles and Dominik are talking about how the SMS message approach can augment your user experience. Since many people are not familiar with implementing SMS, Dominik talks about how Twilio can help. Twilio created was a supernetwork where they work with carriers and gateways around the world to ensure that they provide reliable services. They also focus heavily on making sure that the developer experience is great.

Uber and Lyft are two of the companies that use Twilio, and Dominik shares some of the interesting things that they’ve accomplished. He is particularly excited about phone number masking to support privacy. Uber and Lyft use phone number masking so that your driver doesn’t see your real number and you don’t see theirs. Instead, each of you sees a Twilio number. This use case is becoming more common. 

Twilio recently introduced Flex, which Dominik explains is their contact center solution. Flex is designed to keep with their philosophy of everything should be programmable and configurable, and take it on to a software shipment. This is their first time shipping software instead of just APIs. Flex is highly customizable and flexible, allows you to build React plugins that let you change anything you want.

Charles asks Dominik about some of the gotchas in telephony. One major issues is spam calls, which Twilio is trying to work with some providers on a ‘verified by Twilio’ list. This list lets companies get verified, and they’re working on ways to let you know the reason why they’re calling without having to answer your phone. This can be difficult because each country has different regulations.

Dominik talks about what it would take for someone who wanted to build an SMS gateway themselves. They would have to work with carriers and learn SMS protocols. It’s important to note that SMS and phone calls have different protocols

Dominik talks about some of the unique use cases they’ve seen their system. Some examples are contextual communications, account verifications, and codex creation. There are other fun examples, such as a drone controlled via text message, a fake boyfriend app, and a dog that was taught to take selfies that are sent to his owner. 

Charles asks about ways to get started with Twilio. If you want to explore this and don’t know where to get started, try Twilio Quest, a game to teach you how to use Twilio. There is also documentation, which is good if you know exactly what you want to achieve, or if you just want to explore possibilities then download Twilio Quest. 

They delve into a more specific use case for Twilio to send text to subscibers of DevChatTV. Dominik talks about ways of dealing with sending notifications to people outside of the US. You can send with a US number to any country code, or you can personalize it, so that people in the UK receive it from a UK number and so on through automatic geocode matching. They talk about Twilio’s billing. 

Finally, they talk about security within telephony in light of recent hacks. They discuss the security of two factor authentication.Two factor authentication and security, especially in light of recent hacks. Dominik talks about the API called Authy, where you can implement different ways of doing two factor authentication, such as push notifications, time based one time password, sms, and phone calls. For most people in the world two factor authentication is very safe, unless you’re a very important person, then you’re more at risk for targeted attacks. They conclude by talking about Twilio’s acquisition of Sendgrid.

This webinar introduces you to a relatively new social science paradigm, Followership. For many years followership was viewed as an appendage to leadership and in many business schools, the focus has been on leadership. Why? The answer is really very simple. Leadership has always been viewed as the foundation of organizational power and influence. Did you know that leaders really spend 20 to 30 percent of their time leading, and 70 to 80 percent of their time following, but that following has never been viewed as an essential activity?

Most people have a rather negative perception of followers. Children’s games of Follower the Leader, automotive manufacturer Audi’s bold declaration of “Never Follow” and parent’s warning to their children if “”Johnny is going to jump off of a bridge, are you going to follow him? ; reinforce the negative societal perception of sheep –like followers who are easily influenced, molded and are of little worth. Like with leadership,  there are specific  and distinct followership styles and associated behavioral attributes that certainly have an effect on organizations and their performance.

Leadership model’s like the Hersey-Blanchard Situational Leadership Model, focuses on leadership style based on the follower or group maturity level. Though this particular model has much research to support the premises of the theory, the focus is still on leadership influence and power based on a follower maturity level, versus a behavioral interaction and follower influence on the leader. What you will learn during this webinar is the use of a behavioral based leadership model that focused on the development and power-sharing relationship with organizational followers that is essentially a mutually beneficial symbiotic relationship where the leader and follower grow and learn from each other where leaders learn to become Transformational Leaders and followers learn to become what is termed Exemplary Followers. This will not be an attempt to conduct a comparative study of various leadership styles.

The concepts behind Exemplary Followership and Transformational Leadership become essential in organizations that are focusing on becoming self-directed team based organizations. Unfortunately, organizations that bandy the team word around and say: We are going to be a team! Or We have a team based organization, when in reality; the teams are just miniature versions of the larger rigidly formal hierarchy of the larger organization. At that point, the team concept becomes a joke and sinks beneath the waves of failure. In order to successfully implement these concepts in your organization, major organizational cultural change will become necessary in order to adopt and integrate e
