The Last Coder | CR 290 Jan 01, 2018

Show notes

Mike lays it all out for 2017 and makes the case that the small independent development model is fundamentally doomed. We spend the last Coder of the year being very honest about what hasn't worked in our businesses, about the limitations that life and circumstances put on us all & how we try to make the very best of the hand we’re dealt.

It’s not a typical end of year episode, but it might be the most important.
