Best podcast for programmers

Far and away, this is the best podcast for people who build software. The pace and discussion is the same as talking and brainstorming with your colleagues at work. This podcast is about the practice of software, with a healthy dose of theory, but heavy focus on to use the latest tech stacks. It is how I stay up to date and relevant in the industry. Kudos for work on ‘data intensive systems’, best book out there, without this podcast, I wouldn’t have read it.

Why did two Java methods get a divorce ?
They had a constant arguments

Why below formula throws type cast exception:
⭐️ * mean([range(1), range(5)])
Stars can’t “float”, they are hanging.
