How I got started as a dev (& in Postgres) w/Melanie Plageman & Thomas Munro | PathToCitusCon Ep04

There are as many stories about how people got started in software as there are developers out there. In this episode of Path To Citus Con*, Melanie Plageman, Thomas Munro, Claire Giordano, and Pino de Candia talk through all the different ways they got started as developers. Does making your first patch to Postgres get you hooked for a lifetime? Do you have to be a tinkerer to be a good software engineer? What is the “toothbrush test”—and how do you make your avocation be your vocation? We hear stories about dropping out of school or dropped out of career fields before they found their true passions in development and Postgres. And finally, the cambrian explosion of Unix systems. *[Update: July 2024] Path To Citus Con has been renamed to Talking Postgres.
