The PHP Roundtable podcast (videocast) has posted their latest episode: Episode #53: Why I'm Afraid to Admin to Using PHP. In this show host Sammy Powers is joined by Evert Pot and Davey Shafik.

So you spend most of your time programming in PHP. You meet another programmer out in the wild. You begin explaining what you do. Do you find yourself using vague terms and actively trying to avoid the word "PHP?" Do you dread the question, "What language do you primarily code in?" Do you anticipate them scoffing at you when you say, "PHP?"

The Three Devs & A Maybe podcast has posted their latest episode (#53, released December 31st) with a year in review and some of their own experiences over the last year.

In this weeks episode Mick and Edd reflect on their busy years. We first discuss how work has wrapped up for the new year, and how subtle design changes result in huge benefits. Following this, we compare our personal experiences with product and agency work - chatting about the different programming design mindsets and work-flows used in each case. This leads on to the well-timed appreciation for the work of Martin Fowler, Uncle Bob and Greg Young - inc. valuable tests, the importance of a name and there not being a single 'silver bullet' to solving a problem. Finally, we wrap up with what we both would like to learn this upcoming year and Edd's experiences building a mega PC for a friend.

Topics mentioned include hexagonal architecture, using pull requests as code reviews and domain driven design. You can listen to this latest episode either through the in-page audio player or download the mp3 directly. If you enjoy the show, be sure to subscribe to their feed too.
