Software Engineering Daily - Engineering an Open Source CRISPR with Aadyot Bhatnagar
play

10/22/24 • 32 min

CRISPR is a powerful tool in biotechnology that allows scientists to precisely edit genes, much like editing lines of code in a computer program. Just as developers can remove or alter specific parts of a code to fix bugs or enhance functionality, CRISPR enables researchers to modify DNA to correct genetic disorders, improve crops, or develop new treatments. The development of CRISPR-based editing was recognized by the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2020 awarded to Emmanuelle Charpentier and Jennifer Doudna.

Profluent Bio is an AI-first protein design company that recently developed OpenCRISPR-1, which is an AI-generated, CRISPR-like protein that does not occur in nature. Importantly, the company also released the protein and nucleic acid sequences for OpenCRISPR-1.

Aadyot Bhatnagar is an ML Scientist at Profluent Bio and previously worked at Salesforce. He joins the podcast with Sean Falconer to talk about OpenCRISPR-1 and how it was made.

Sean’s been an academic, startup founder, and Googler. He has published works covering a wide range of topics from information visualization to quantum computing. Currently, Sean is Head of Marketing and Developer Relations at Skyflow and host of the podcast Partially Redacted, a podcast about privacy and security engineering.

Software Engineering Daily - Rust and C++ with Steve Klabnik and Herb Sutter
play

10/23/24 • 61 min

In software engineering, C++ is often used in areas where low-level system access and high-performance are critical, such as operating systems, game engines, and embedded systems. Its long-standing presence and compatibility with legacy code make it a go-to language for maintaining and extending older projects. Rust, while newer, is gaining traction in roles that demand safety and concurrency, particularly in systems programming.

We wanted to explore these two languages side-by-side, so we invited Herb Sutter and Steve Klabnik to join host Kevin Ball on the show. Herb works at Microsoft and chairs the ISO C++ standards committee. Steve works at Oxide Computer Company, is an alumnus of the Rust Core Team, and is the primary author of The Rust Programming Language book.

We hope you enjoy this deep dive into Rust and C++ on Software Engineering Daily.

Kevin Ball or KBall, is the vice president of engineering at Mento and an independent coach for engineers and engineering leaders. He co-founded and served as CTO for two companies, founded the San Diego JavaScript meetup, and organizes the AI inaction discussion group through Latent Space.

The Google Sheets calculation engine was originally written in Java and launched in 2006. In the early days of the product, all calculation happened on the server. However, starting in 2013 the engine has run in the browser using JavaScript.

Google Sheets is now one of the first products at Google to use WebAssembly Garbage Collection, or WasmGC, on Chrome.

Michael Thomas is the Multiplatform Lead for Google Workspace and Thomas Steiner is a Developer Relations Engineer at Google. They join the podcast to tell the story of why and how Google Sheets ported its calculation worker from JavaScript to WasmGC.

Sean’s been an academic, startup founder, and Googler. He has published works covering a wide range of topics from information visualization to quantum computing. Currently, Sean is Head of Marketing and Developer Relations at Skyflow and host of the podcast Partially Redacted, a podcast about privacy and security engineering.

Software Engineering Daily - Creating GUIs in Rust with Emil Ernerfeldt
play

08/07/24 • 43 min

Rerun is an open source SDK and viewer for visualizing and interacting with multimodal data streams. The SDK lets you send data from anywhere, and the viewer collects the data and aligns it so the user can scroll back and forth in time to interpret it. The tools have been applied in spatial computing, augmented reality, virtual reality, and mixed reality.

Emil Ernerfeldt is the Co-Founder and CTO of Rerun. Emil is also the creator of egui which is a popular GUI library written in Rust. He joins the podcast to talk about his history in game development, building super fast tools, and developing Rerun.

Gregor Vand is a security-focused technologist, and is the founder and CTO of Mailpass. Previously, Gregor was a CTO across cybersecurity, cyber insurance and general software engineering companies. He has been based in Asia Pacific for almost a decade and can be found via his profile at vand.hk.

Software Engineering Daily - Troubleshooting Microservices with Julia Blase
play

02/25/25 • 43 min

A distributed system is a network of independent services that work together to achieve a common goal. Unlike a monolithic system, a distributed system has no central point of control, meaning it must handle challenges like data consistency, network latency, and system failures.

Debugging distributed systems is conventionally considered challenging because modern architectures consist of numerous microservices communicating across networks, making failures difficult to isolate. The challenges and maintenance burdens can magnify as systems grow in size and complexity.

Julia Blase is a Product Manager at Chronosphere where she works on features to help developers troubleshoot distributed systems more efficiently, including Differential Diagnosis, or DDx. DDx provides tooling to troubleshoot distributed systems, and emphasizes automation and developer experience. In this episode Julia joins Sean Falconer to talk about the challenges and emerging strategies to troubleshoot distributed systems.

Full Disclosure: This episode is sponsored by Chronosphere.

Sean’s been an academic, startup founder, and Googler. He has published works covering a wide range of topics from AI to quantum computing. Currently, Sean is an AI Entrepreneur in Residence at Confluent where he works on AI strategy and thought leadership. You can connect with Sean on LinkedIn.

Rust’s ownership model ensures safe memory management, making it viable for tasks that require control over system resources, such as embedded systems, web assembly, and game development.

RustRover is a dedicated Rust IDE that was created by JetBrains to support the growing popularity of Rust. Vitaly Bragilevsky is a Developer Advocate at JetBrains, and has expertise in Rust and RustRover. He joins the podcast with Lee Atchison to talk about Rust, the Rust developer ecosystem, using an IDE to make Rust more accessible, and more.

This episode is hosted by Lee Atchison. Lee Atchison is a software architect, author, and thought leader on cloud computing and application modernization. His best-selling book, Architecting for Scale (O’Reilly Media), is an essential resource for technical teams looking to maintain high availability and manage risk in their cloud environments.
