On this week's episode of the podcast, freeCodeCamp founder Quincy Larson interviews Scott Hanselman. Scott's a developer at Microsoft, a prolific teacher, and has hosted the Hanselminutes podcast for nearly two decades.
We talk about:
How he leads a fully-remote team from his home of Portland, Oregon
His 11-year journey to getting his degree
What he learned from teaching programming at community college
What he's learned about software development from recording 980 podcast interviews across 20 years
Can you guess what song I'm playing on my bass during the intro? It's from a 1994 punk song.
