MongoDB is a popular option for databases which provides objects that look and act like JavaScript Objects. We brought an expert, Joe Karlsson to clear up some of the confusion on how to arrange your data in MongoDB. Joe provides a rundown on how to think about your data with a smaller dataset, a medium sized dataset, and a large dataset. The panel also dives into how the database works and how things are managed and arranged by the MongoDB database engine.SponsorsThe Complete Software Developer’s Career Guide – Grab a Copy TodayCacheFlyPanelCharles Max WoodAimee KnightDan ShappirAJ ONealSpecial GuestJoe KarlssonLinksM320: Data Modelingdeveloper.mongodb.comPicksChuckLeadership in Turbulent TimesAimeeProsourceFit Acupressure MatAJAcupuncture MatSQL vs NoSQLChiron Beta Primessh-pubkeyArs Technica War Stories: Ultima Online (about sharding)Joe KarlssonStamped From the BeginningSpecial Guest: Joe Karlsson.

Our guest is Daniel Lathrop, a freelance investigative data journalist and educator, and formerly a newspaper reporter and Professor of Journalism and Media informatics at the University of Iowa. On this show, Daniel describes how JavaScript is a great choice for doing data analysis and data science, potentially even more so than other languages which are often used for this purpose, such as Python and R. Daniel also provides information about lots of useful tools and techniques to use in this context.SponsorsThe Complete Software Developer’s Career Guide – Grab a Copy TodayCacheFlyPanelAJ ONealAimee KnightDan ShappirSpecial GuestDaniel LathropLinkshttps://daniel.buzz/PicksAimeeForecasting at ScaleDan Shappirhttps://www.data-forge-notebook.comAJPropaganda in Nazi GermanyDaniel Lathrophttps://www.data-forge-notebook.comhttps://www.claudiajs.comhttps://js4ds.org/Follow JavaScript Jabber on Twitter > @JSJabberSpecial Guest: Daniel Lathrop.

Achieving work-life balance can always be a challenge in tech, but can be especially challenging when work and life mix in the same location. In this episode the panel discusses this important topic, and how it has impacted their own lives and careers. Also, how it changes over time and during a career.SponsorsThe Complete Software Developer's Career Guide - Grab a Copy TodayPanelAJ O’NealAimee KnightCharles Max WoodSteve EdwardsDan ShappirLinkshttps://www.figma.comJSJ 431: Personal Branding for Developers with Morad SternGPT3() - The spreadsheet function to rule them all.I built a React dice component with GPT-3PicksSteveHow Does The Internet Work? AJhttps://blerp.comhttps://webinstall.dev/curlieDanWear Maskshttps://github.com/openai/gpt-3 Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/javascript-jabber/donationsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacyBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/javascript-jabber--6102064/support.

Connell has been working on Universal AR, a cross-platform Augmented Reality kit for Mobile Browsers delivering native-level performance using only JavaScript (and a bit of WASM under the hood). We talk about what AR actually is, some of its use cases, as well as the fascinating details as to how the Zap.works team is delivering near native performance and accuracy without IR, LiDAR, or any other of the common advanced AR sensors - just the good ol' phone camera and advanced Computer Visual trickery.SponsorsScout APM | We'll donate $5 to the open source project of your choice when you deploy ScoutThe Complete Software Developer's Career Guide - Grab a Copy TodayDo you code in .NET?

The panel talks with Jonathan Reinink about his new library, IntertiaJS. InertiaJS is a tool that allows you to create a monolith server rendered site, but where you write your own custom back end, and then use a front end framework like React, Vue, or Svelte. We discuss how Intertia works at a very granular level, how it compares to tools like Next.js and Nuxt, why monoliths are better than using APIs, how Interita handles authentication and form submissions, and much more.PanelAJ O’NealAimee KnightSteve EdwardsGuestJonathan ReininkSponsorsScout APM | We'll donate $5 to the open source project of your choice when you deploy ScoutReact Native Remote Conf 2020LinksTurbolinks PicksJonathan Reinink:Follow Jonathan on Twitter > @reinink, WebsiteInertia.js - The Modern MonolithLost in SpaceAimee Knight:Our AWS bill is ~ 2% of revenue.

Danny Thompson discusses his road to a successful tech career, after working for years outside the industry (frying chicken at gas-stations). He explains the importance of setting goals and following through, and how to overcome adversity, and handle setbacks. It's simultaneously a very inspirational story, but also filled with lots of very practical advice and action items to pursue. For example, the importance of attending and participating in Meetups and engaging with the local tech community.PanelAJ O’NealAimee KnightCharles Max WoodSteve EdwardsDan ShappirGuestDanny Thompson SponsorsG2i | Enjoy the luxuries of freelancingScout APM | We'll donate $5 to the open source project of your choice when you deploy ScoutReact Native Remote Conf 2020LinksAI powered resume builderPicksDanny Thompson:Follow Danny Thompson on Twitter > @DThompsonDevJames Q Quick - YouTubeBrad Traversy - YouTubeFlorin Pop - YouTubeAJ O’Neal:TemplateResumeThis Video Is Sponsored By ███ VPN The Wisdom of the Ancients by Sir Francis Bacon Free AudioBook)Aimee Knight:Amazon Web ServicesEco Performance Bamboo Clothing I Handmade I by TransientCraftCharles Max Wood:The One Funnel Away Challenge!Devchat.tv ConferencesSteve Edwards:xkcd: Wisdom of the AncientsCasablanca (1942) - IMDbDan Shappir:Adopt a puppy or other petFollow JavaScript Jabber on Twitter > @JSJabber Special Guest: Danny Thompson.

Yoav Wiess is a Developer Advocate at Google on the Chrome team, and also co-chair of the W3C Performance Working Group. In this episode Yoav explains how JavaScript resources are currently being delivered to browsers, and limitations and downsides with these approaches. He then describes a proposal for an advanced JavaScript delivery method that addresses these limitations. When this proposal is implemented, it will enable much more efficient download of JavaScript into browsers, boosting Web performance. This is a public proposal, and Yoav invites the community to participate in the standardization process.PanelAJ O’NealAimee KnightSteve EdwardsDan ShappirGuestYoav WeissSponsorsScout APM | We'll donate $5 to the open source project of your choice when you deploy ScoutReact Native Remote Conf 2020LinksJSJ 434: Understanding and Using ES Modules in Node with Gil TayarPicksYoav Weiss McCumskey:Follow Yoav on Twitter > @yoavweiss Scroll to Text Fragment - Chrome Platform StatusAJ O’Neal:Follow AJ on Twitter > @coolaj86The Beatles: Abbey Road(great dynamic range) (note: the title I meant to use)Deno | webinstall.devDan Shappir:"Inspired by @Apple's #WWDC2020, I quickly built WashOSCharlie Gerard 🏳️‍🌈 (@devdevcharlie) / TwitterThe Beatles: a musical appreciation and analysis by composer, Howard Goodall CBESteve Edvards:Going Full Static - NuxtJSAimee Knight:Teach Yourself Computer ScienceFollow JavaScript Jabber on Twitter > @JSJabber Special Guest: Yoav Weiss.
