TechChat Tuesdays #18: Dev News with Sujan Kapadia

Today we welcome Sujan Kapadia to the show, Director of Consulting here at Chariot Solutions, and Dev News veteran from days past. He and Ken bring a whole slew of dev topics to the livestream today, and we pilot a new feature section: Unpopular Tech Opinions. Tweet us yours @techcast, or drop us a comment on our next show on Tuesday at noon!

• TypeScript 4.0: Microsoft’s announcement, Fernando Doglio’s Medium post about the features he’s most excited for, and a great podcast interview with Luke Hoban.
• Tesla’s full self-driving beta. Deep learning, sensor integration, and 4D data continuity and trajectory prediction. To see FSD beta videos, search on Twitter for #FSDbeta.
• Testing React Hooks: separating out purely functional web components in React and Vue, and adding “hooks” for things like managing context, state, side effects, and more.
• Hackity Hack! Develop audio applications, even control Ableton or other Digital Audio Workstation tools with the Neotrellis M4 DSP-based processor (uses Arduino or CircuitPython).
• How Go Helped Save Healthcare: “Exercise your path to production as early as possible, even if it’s hello world – DNS, hosting, CI/CD, auto-scaling, etc.. The higher the stakes, the bigger the audience, the simpler it should be, don’t be clever! Things break in a non-linear, catastrophic way.”
• Burning iron – a carbon-free fuel that you can also re-use (recycle the rust into iron again with renewable electricity), and the brewery that’s using this new method.
• The Virgin Hyperloop’s first trip – 500 meters in 15 seconds = 33.3 meters per second = 107 feet per second. Apparently will go 620 miles per second. Why does all the cool stuff have to happen in Cali?
• Introducing a new segment: Unpopular Tech Opinions. Tweet us yours at @techcast
