"Every week on X somebody says software development is dead. I gave AI a medium-difficulty C++ problem this year. It couldn't do it." Will Briggs talks with @toddlmontgomery about learning languages in the AI era. 🎥 piped.video/ad7i3NN8cXI?list=PL…

Platform engineering started in IT–It's now eating the entire enterprise. Kaspar von Grünberg & @luca_cloud, authors of Thinking in Platforms, on why AI agents can't skip this step—and why 90%+ of orgs already have a platform initiative underway. Watch: piped.video/mfWRYv2V71k?list=PL…

Ever given advice that was obviously right, and watched it land as complete nonsense? Kent Beck has a name for it. The forest and the desert. #GOTOpodcast: he gets into what separates them, and how you get from crumbs to cake and stay there. Listen in: gotopia.tech/podcast

Your developers aren't users of the platform. They're customers. @danielbryantuk explains why platform engineering needs a product mindset—and why APIs, automation, abstractions, and composability matter more than simply adding more tools. Watch: piped.video/ROBX-P7q1d8?list=PL…

I'm teaching a two day masterclass at @GOTOcon Copenhagen this September, and it's built around the part of modernization everyone skips. That's why I built it around what I actually saw work while helping organizations through modernization at #AWS, and before that at #DAZN, where we took a monolith and turned it into over 200 hundred microservices spread across tens of teams without losing the plot along the way. The techniques in this workshop are the ones that shortened how long it took to get a proper modernization in place, not the ones that look good on a slide. Most teams reach for a target architecture diagram before they've done the harder work of finding real boundaries, understanding which architectural characteristics should actually drive the modernization goals, and building a team structure that will hold once the new architecture is live rather than fight it. We'll also get into where AI genuinely speeds this work up and where it just adds noise, which matters more right now than most people give it credit for. Over September 28 and 29, working with a small group on a realistic case study, we'll cover evolutionary architecture principles, Event Storming, trade off analysis for architecture decisions, extracting a first service step by step, what platform engineering should centralize versus what teams own, and team topologies for decentralizing decisions while keeping teams aligned. In this 2 days workshop, most of the time is spent applying these techniques in groups and getting feedback. If you're a senior developer, architect, or technical lead working on a system that's outgrown its shape, this one's for you. Details and registration: gotocph.com/2026/masterclass…

Events are everywhere in modern software—but the terminology can get confusing fast. 😵‍💫 @tekiegirl cuts through the jargon, explaining the different types of events, how to design them, and why event granularity matters. Watch: piped.video/1dIjb9A4uow?list=PL…

#Twitter started by giving users tools to control their own experience. Then recommendation algorithms changed the game. @j2bryson argues AI companies risk repeating the same mistake: concentrating power in 1 place while claiming being your best friend. piped.video/shorts/PBGEol4c-…

New #GOTOpodcast episode out now. @j2bryson argues that debates about machine consciousness pull attention away from the ones that decide how this goes: who is accountable, what is visible, and who gets a say. Listen here: gotopia.tech/podcast

A 32GB stick of RAM was $69 a year ago. Today it's $440. Jim Ledin explains why — and what it means for GPUs and LLMs — in this GOTO Book Club chat with MJ Jedrzejewski. 🎥 piped.video/u7k1l_qkQH8?list=PL…

Your enterprise architecture has one enemy that never sleeps: #complexity. 😳 @sirohrer explains why modern architecture needs continuous evolution, rapid feedback & a focus on outcomes—not just architecture review boards & big design documents. Watch: piped.video/UMaZ-O2KRCw?list=PL…

AI agents aren't just chatbots anymore. They're getting tools, permissions, and access to sensitive data. 😳 In this @yow_conf talk, @InsiderPhD explores how malicious prompts can hijack agents—and turn them into an insider threat. Watch: piped.video/fuJq99juh0Q?list=PL…

Technical leadership isn’t about telling people how to code. It’s about aligning a team on how you use your tools. @patkua explains how something as simple as a Git PR review can reveal—and fix—team misalignment. Watch the Short: piped.video/shorts/y9vyl6o37… #TechnicalLeadership
