Magpie Talkshow Episode 10 - Martin Fowler

Many of you have probably heard of my colleague Martin Fowler before. I'm lucky enough to get to work with him on occasion as part of my role on ThoughtWorks' Technology Advisory Board (or TAB), which is an internal body inside ThoughtWorks itself. One of the main responsibilities of the TAB is putting out the twice yearly Technology Radar, and I was in our New York office recently to work on the new version when Martin and I found time to catch up for a chat.

Recorded in a rather cozy room, we talked about many things, including how Martin got where he is today, how the tech radar is created, and even the future of computing books.

During the interview we reference quite a few things, so there are a bunch of links for further reading if you're so inclined:

Toby Clemson's Infodeck on Testing Microservices
Martin's early writing (late 90's)
Recent refactoring articles
General microserservices resources
Infodeck on the future of data
What makes a good Anti-pattern
On Feature branches
And on Taking responsibility for what we build

I hope you enjoy the episode!
