Thanks for joining us! Let’s start with your background.
Who or what are your biggest influences as a developer?
What's an opinion you have that most people don't agree with?
What’s your most controversial programming opinion?
What is one app on your phone that you can’t live without that you think others should know about?
If you could dictate that everyone in the world should read one book, what would it be?
If you could teach every 12 year old in the world one thing, what would it be and why?
If I gave you $10 million to invest in one thing right now, where would you put it?
What are you currently learning?
What resources do you use to stay up to date on software engineering?
Do you listen to music while coding? If so, what have you been listening to lately? How do you separate good project ideas from bad ones?
Why was GUN started?
Does GUN stand for anything? If so, what?
Who, or what was the biggest inspiration for GUN?
What was your previous company?
Are there any overarching goals of GUN that drive design or implementation? If so, what tradeoffs have been made in GUN as a consequence of these goals?
This seems to be a very similar design goal to Bitcoin. Were you at all influenced by those design goals?
What is the most challenging problem that’s been solved in GUN, so far?
What is your typical approach to debugging issues filed in the GUN repo?
This isn't anywhere in the GUN code as a utility is it?
What an interesting technique! I feel this would be born of necessity while debugging distributed systems bugs since they're inherently more difficult to debug than non-distributed systems.
What is the release process like for GUN?
Is GUN intended to eventually be monetized?
Any idea when “someday” will come?
How do you balance your work on open-source with your day job and other responsibilities?
Do you think any of your projects do more harm than good?
What is the best way for a new developer to contribute to GUN?
If you plan to continue developing GUN, where do you see the project heading next?
What motivates you to continue contributing to GUN?
