In this episode of the State of Developer Education podcast, Jon speaks with Titus Winters, Principal Software Engineer at Google (a company that needs no introduction), and the Founder and TLM for Abseil. Titus is also the Author of Software Engineering at Google: Lessons Learned from Programming Over Time.
When he was asked for whom the book was intended, Titus said: “We were aiming for this to provide the “Why”, and our understanding of best practices at Google scale. I think it’s probably most useful for people involved in policy and decision making for a software organization - whether that is the people making the decisions or the people proposing changes and improvements”.
This conversation gets right into why computing education should really focus on the craft of programming rather than the mathematical side, especially in an increasingly automated world, whether or not the increase in automation will pose a threat to programming education, and just how much the programming industry has evolved and grown in such a scarily short time!
