In this episode, co-hosts Derrick Harris (ArchiTECHt) and Barb Darrow (Fortune) discuss Cisco's big $3.7 billion acquisition of AppDynamics; Oracle's mega hardware layoffs; Microsoft appointing former LinkedIn SVP Kevin Scott to CTO; and the trend of NBA teams putting advertising on their jerseys (yes, there's a tech hook).
Derrick also interviews Instagram's head of engineering, James Everingham, who shares his insights of more than 30 years as a software engineer. Everingham talks about how software has evolved, how software developers have evolved and how his management style has evolved (hint: it involves quantum physics).
