Engineering Conversations with Michael Feathers

A wide-ranging conversation on contemporary and classic software engineering and design with Michael Feathers, author of "Working Effectively with Legacy Code"

It was my pleasure to speak with Michael Feathers this week on a wide variety of subjects in the domain of systems design and architecture. A big thank you to everyone who joined!

Michael wrote the seminal book (one of my absolute favorites) on wrangling gnarly software, “Working Effectively with Legacy Code”.

In this conversation, we cover:

  • AI/LLMs’ outsized influence on software engineering and how we’re using it in our workflows

  • Design principles that get rediscovered or re-invented with new generations

  • The extinct mathematics of dirigible (blimp) construction and flight
