This week I talked to Ben Johnson, who built the authlogic and memorylogic (among many other) libraries for the Ruby and Rails communities. He talked to me about the side business he’s running, what he looks for in developers who come work for him, and about being a passionate programmer.
If you want to keep up with him and what he’s doing, you can check out his blog or his github profile. He also said that he’ll be at RailsConf this year in Baltimore.
[...] just got done doing an interview with Charles Wood at Rails Coach. Check it out if you are interested. Man I hate hearing myself talk. [...]
Sweet deal!
Man I hate hearing this guy talk; if only a text transcript!
Just stumbled across this and look forward to catching up on older episodes.
This was invigorating and inspiring. I think I listened to it over and over again this afternoon. My favorite quote, “typlically I’m doing something nerdy…” No kidding.
