Description

Hello all,

This podcast is going through an upgrade and I'm planning on having new episodes out sometime in 2021.



So you think you know tech.  Get a different perspective from someone that has been in the industry for 20 (ish) years. 

I'm going to explore the following topics:
  • Tech reviews - Software
  • Tech reviews - Hardware
  • DevOps
  • Software build tech
  • Software deployment automation
  • Infrastructure automation
  • Software testing
  • Test automation
  • New tech
  • Old tech
  • Fresh tech
  • And some that is not so fresh (go retro) 
So stay tuned and come along for the ride.
