Feelings are powerful. In almost every single episode [of Command Line Heroes] we see that movement forward, that progress, is tied to some type of emotion.

About this talk

The Key to Coding Progress

From the operating system wars to the agile revolution, at every moment when information technology leapt forward, there was code—and there was emotion. In this talk from Red Hat Summit 2018, Yitbarek, who is also the host of the Command Line Heroes podcast, traces the history of innovation in a series of moments where code expressed emotion.

What began as a weekly tweetup hosted by Saron has become a supportive, global community of people who want to write code. More than 4,000 people contribute to the group, which also encompasses a podcast, a blog, and CodeLand, an annual event for early-career developers.
