What’s it like to be a guest on Mentoring Developers? Sarah Mei special!

Hello dear listeners! I’m your host Arsalan and I am really glad you could join me in Episode 19. This episode will be different from the first 18 episodes and we will look back at the way the podcast has gone in 2015 and where it’s going in 2016.

If you have listened to past episodes, you may have heard me talk about doing panel discussions with a diversity of opinions from people at different experience levels and backgrounds. Well, now the time is right to alternate between in-depth and thoughtful interviews that you love so much with these panel discussions that are badly needed. We need to understand each other better in order to create better professional environments for everyone and it always starts with open and honest discussions. I am excited about these discussions and I am sure many of you are as well.

Please let me know if you would like to be part of a discussion panel or if you would like to share your ideas, opinions, or questions. This is, after all, a safe place for everyone. Alright, people. Let’s go!

In this episode, Arsalan talks to Matt Darby from Columbus Ruby Brigade and Rackspace about his journey into software development and how he feels about the idea of structured mentorship for new and aspiring developers.

Matt’s Bio:

Matt has developed on the web for 17 years. He can configure pools of servers, architect and develop the applications on those servers, and make it all look good (and run). He has a Master’s degree in Computer Science and he leads the Columbus Ruby Brigade. He has launched projects for folks from Rackspace, AT&T, Sprint, LivingSocial and SeoMoz to local engineering and consulting firms.

Episode Highlights and Show Notes:

Matt: I don’t see a lot of companies treating younger programmers as assets. They aren’t investing in them and they are using them to fill in some holes in their staffing but they probably are aware that a certain percentage of those people are probably gonna either not fit in, not like the job – you know certain amount have to shake out…

Matt: You are going to get bruised every single time you promote yourself. Someone’s gonna laugh at you or you’re gonna fail or get punched – metaphorically – but the key is getting over there and it’s like a standup comedian. You know you’re going to get bruised sometimes…

Matt: Keep your head up… programming is a tough journey – it really is. Once you learn something you tend to very quickly forget the pain you went through to learn that… keep working to promote yourself and make sure people know who you are…

How To Have A Real Discussion About Tech Diversity

November 6, 2020 By Sara Calderon Leave a Comment

Inevitably you’ve had a discussion about racism, sexism, discrimination, diversity, etc., in your workplace with your colleagues that probably started out with the best of intentions. And, most likely this conversation ended when someone shut it down by saying something along the lines of: “I believe that everyone is equal.”

This is not a real conversation about diversity, discrimination, or the things that cause it. Rather, it’s an illustration of the kinds of behavior that contribute to discrimination and a lack of diversity.

Real conversations about anything involve a lot of listening, consideration of others’ points of view, and a legitimate interest in how that information can affect future behavior. You would walk away from a real conversation about diversity thinking, “Wow, I didn’t know that when I did that I could potentially be shutting people out,” for example.

When someone starts to feel uncomfortable, and inserts a knee-jerk blanket comment about how skin color doesn’t matter, it is not an indication not of how non-discriminating that person may be, but rather, how uncomfortable they are with the subject of the conversation. I’m a big proponent of being the change you want to see. In that vein I wanted to provide a brief prescription from my experience that would be beneficial for folks who would like to have a real conversation about diversity.

Listen. Listen as hard as you can, try to really hear what the other person is saying, and see if you can identify with anything from their experience.

Ask. Ask questions that will help you get closer to understanding their experiences. Try really hard not ask a judgmental, leading, or insinuating question — that will only widen the divide you are trying to bridge. The easiest way to ask a good question is simply asking for clarification — Can you expand on that? Why is that? Could you tell me more? I’m not sure I understand. Simpler is better in this case.

Use your imagination. Try to see the world from their eyes. Take some time to try really, really hard to imagine what it would be like to feel their feelings, have their experiences, and reactions.

Empathize. Take a second to ask yourself: How would I feel if that happened to me? How would I react if that were me? What would I have done in that situation?

Say thank you. You might be tempted to share what you think about this situation, but it’s important to recognize that maybe this conversation isn’t about you. Your opinion or feelings about this topic may not be vital to the discussion. Start by saying, “Thank you for sharing,” and know that, oftentimes, just listening to someone can go a long way in bridging gaps.

Most importantly, if you feel the urge to make a blanket statement about how you don’t see color, or that everyone is the same, or that differences don’t matter to you — reconsider. Try listening to whoever is speaking and try to understand their point of view before you say anything, and recognize that “not seeing color” is a meaningless phrase. It’s like saying you really like eating food or that clothes are an important part of your life: it’s a bland, non-specific blanket statement that’s something everyone can agree with. Which is to say, it doesn’t really mean anything or hold any weight at all.

Talking about diversity and the issues around it is going to be difficult. But I hope these tips are useful to someone, as I know in my experience that being able to speak openly and respectfully about these issues goes much further in solving problems than listening to how people feel about diversity without actually ever discussing it.

CSS or LESS or SASS – Which one is the right web styling language for you and why!

Kevin and Arsalan discuss the different options available to software developers to style their web pages. CSS is great for browsers to interpret and machines are great at using it but is there an easier, more intuitive way of describing the look and feel for a user interface? Certainly! There are many preprocessing tools and languages that are available to the modern web developer. But are they all equal? What are some good options and which are better for you if you are a new or aspiring software developer. CSS or SASS or LESS or something else? Watch the show to find out.

Tech Comadres: Women Helping Women Grow Professionally in Tech

November 1, 2020 By Sara Calderon Leave a Comment

I didn’t even really want to be there the night I met my tech comadres. I had been looking for a software developer job in Austin for several months already and I was tired and grumpy and I didn’t want to leave the house — but I forced myself, because I figured nothing worse could happen than being by myself at home, unemployed and desperate for a job.

It wasn’t my first tech event in Austin, but it was the first time I had connected with folks on a visceral level. It was February 2015, at the Women Who Code Austin Lightning Talks at the Capital Factory. I was just blown away by all the women coming together to talk about their work — good and bad — and the honesty and openness that accompanied that conversation.

That night changed my life, as I am now a member of a community of intelligent, driven, successful, technical and kind women who work in Austin Tech and are determined to see people like me succeed here. What’s more, I made an awesome group of friends who have proven to be caring, kind, diverse, supportive and genuine that has made all the difference in my life in this city.

That night in February I wanted in, and I told WWCodeATX Founder Holly Gibson as much when I met her — How can I help? I can do social media. — and these months later I find myself co-director of Women Who Code Austin, having successfully doubled our social media presence online, the proud co-organizer of a diversity hackathon, a mentor to women looking to enter Austin Tech, now a happy member of Austin’s tech crowd myself.

Finding this community of women turned out to be a game changer for me. I now understand the hype around women in tech not so much as an abstract ideal, but a tangible, useful, practical way for women from diverse backgrounds to make up for lost time and connections in tech by consolidating resources. After all, a high tide lifts all boats.

$100,000 is about how much more money the women in the circle have earned since we started helping each other with interviews, resumes, LinkedIn profiles, job referrals coding projects and general encouragement and advice. In less than a year women in Austin Tech have earned more because they’ve had a support system, but we also feel supported, more confident, like we belong — and you can’t put a price on that (especially since we’re almost always the only woman on our respective teams).

Additionally, several of us are working on pet projects together, our social media presences are growing, we’re being headhunted on LinkedIn, several of us will be on a SXSW Interactive panel this year, and while many of us are the only women on our dev team, none of us feel alone because we have a support group where we can ask questions without feeling talked down to, and we can share advice and tips to accelerate our professional development.

In short, serendipity has allowed us to make up for a lack of women I tech by forming a social group that has helped us all grow as professionals.

Imagine the potential for us if there were more diversity in tech to begin with! To any women out there in tech looking for professional growth and not finding it at work, I highly recommend getting out to Meetups, hackathons, tweet chats, and anywhere else you think you might find people like you and introduce yourself — you never know how life changing the people you meet might be.

Why You Need To Go To Your First Hackathon, And How To Get There

November 1, 2020 By Sara Calderon Leave a Comment

This post is dedicated to my friend Tricia, who just killed it at the Lowe’s Hackathon in Austin. Follow her on Twitter @techxastrish.

So you’ve heard of hackathons, maybe you even have friends who have gone, and you’re curious but haven’t taken the plunge yet — why not? I urge you to go as soon as you can, because if you’re interested in technology or a career in this sphere, you can’t afford not to go.

First off, a hackathon isn’t anything illegal and has nothing to do with “hacking” that will get you in trouble. It’s basically a contest or competition in which teams get together and bust their behinds to build a project in a short amount of time, usually over a weekend.

There is often prize money associated with hackathons, but it’s also a great chance to try new things, meet new people, test out some skills and get some more code or experience under your belt for that next job interview.

You need to go to a hackathon because, if you want to work in tech, hackathons are where you get a hands-on view of how tech sausage is made. It’s the extremely abridged version of what it’s like to work in a startup, gives you the chance to perform in several different roles (marketing, designer, coder, user experience, etc.) and whether or not you perform is entirely up to you.

At the end of this experience, you will have learned a lot about yourself, and if nothing else, you’ll know more about what you want to do in tech than you did before. For example, perhaps you think you want to be a coder but have never actually coded — going to a hackathon might help you realize you’re much more interested in design or project management. Maybe you thought coding was too hard for you, but when the judges call your name and you won, you realize that you can actually do this.

Go to a hackathon. Do it.

The face you make when you win 2nd place at a hackathon after only 7 weeks of coding.

The face you make when you win 2nd place at a hackathon after only 7 weeks of coding.

How do you find out about hackathons? I personally have Google alerts set up, but I also see them periodically on Twitter or Meetups, there are tons of ways to find out, but you have to put yourself in the pathway of discovering them. Follow people on Twitter that tweet about things like that, set up a Google alert, or ask around.

How do you prepare for a hackathon? Read up on what the rules/guidelines will be, if you can find a team of people you know, maybe organize ahead of time, and if you know what the APIs, tools or frameworks are going to be, brush up on those. If you have a team before you head in, start sketching out the basic idea of what you want to build if that’s allowed.

If you don’t have friends who want to go with you, think of this as an opportunity to enjoy being outside of your comfort zone. I’ve made some really great friends by just taking a chance and asking if they wanted to work together, or sit together, or hang out sometime. Get yourself a nametag, add your skills to it, and start glad-handing. Perhaps you’ll meet a team, or perhaps they’ll find you!

Most importantly, though, ask yourself why you’re going to this hackathon:

Do you want to meet people?

Do you want to win?

Do you want to flex your code muscles?

Do you want to make some money?

Do you need code samples for that job you’re applying to?

Do you want to network with a sponsor or showcase a particular framework or technology in a project?

If you can define a few of these goals for yourself ahead of time, you’re practically guaranteed to have a successful experience at a hackathon. You’ll always learn something and grow from a hackathon — but not if you don’t get started and attend your first one.

Good luck!
