  • All your packages are belong to us (Interview)
    Nov 13 2026
    AI agents can write the code, choose the packages, and run the install. Who's checking what they just invited onto your machine? This week I'm joined by Ahmad Nassri, CTO of Socket and former CTO of npm. We get into the trust built into a package install, the new ways attackers are using agents, and what it takes to keep building without handing over the keys or your wallet.

  • We now have Kerr’s Law (Interview)
    Nov 4 2026
    Dave Kerr created hacker laws, and now he finds himself reviewing agent-written code for them. Back on the show after six years, Dave names what he sees limiting teams today: keeping everyone’s mental model in sync with what’s actually been built. Adam declares it Kerr’s Law on the spot. We get into why Dave’s team treats code review as a deliberate slowdown, how Shellwright lets agents bring evidence to a pull request, and what living with bipolar disorder has taught Dave about noticing when the excitement of these tools stops being healthy.

  • The future is Postgres (Interview)
    Oct 28 2026
    Craig Kerstiens returns to talk about the ever-expanding world of Postgres: a deliberately boring core, a thriving extension ecosystem, and pg_lake bringing DuckDB and Iceberg into the mix. We dig into the pain of ETL, what Craig is watching in Postgres 19, the impact of AI on open source maintainers, and why the database still has plenty of room to grow.
