We have reached the end of the podcast. At least 100 times Ed and I got together to talk about our thoughts, mostly about technical things, sometimes it was funny, sometimes it was serious. But people change and decide to put their energies into other activities. It is neither good nor bad, it is just how people grow and evolve. If Ed and Chris had not grown and changed as people since we shared the first episode on December 11, 2011, that would’ve been a huge failure.</p> <p>Thank you to everyone that supported this podcast over the years and reached out to us and became friends with us. Ed and Chris might do something else in the future, but it will not be /dev/hell.</p> <p>If there is one constant theme, it has been how programming slides towards being complex and fails instead of the majority of people working hard towards making it simple. We end the same way we started — with Ed complaining about the developer experience being so terrible for so many people.</p> <p>Take care of yourselves and always be pushing to make things better for everyone around you, not just yourselves.</p> <h2>Do these things!</h2> <ul> <li>Buy stickers at <a href="http://devhell.info/shop">devhell.info/shop</a></li> <li>Follow us on <strong>Twitter</strong> <a href="https://twitter.com/dev_hell">here</a></li> <li><strong>Rate us</strong> on iTunes <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/dev-hell/id489840699">here</a></li> </ul> <h2>Listen</h2> <iframe height="200px" width="100%" frameborder="no" scrolling="no" seamless src="https://player.simplecast.com/8e92122c-5541-49be-8929-4d5f2e5d1a44?dark=false"></iframe> <p><a href="https://cdn.simplecast.com/audio/ccd866/ccd86610-7d0a-4103-8187-4ab21b1bbe8c/8e92122c-5541-49be-8929-4d5f2e5d1a44/ep100-128stereo_tc.mp3" rel="enclosure">Download now (MP3)</a></p> <h1>Links and Notes</h1> <ul> <li><a href="http://web.mit.edu/2.75/resources/random/How%20Complex%20Systems%20Fail.pdf">How Complex Systems Fail</a></li> </ul>

Between Ed making faces at Chris while recording and Chris' totally messing up who wrote the testing blog post he went on and on, it was clear /dev/hell is not in the groove.</p> <p>In this episode Ed talks about some of his personal struggles that led to a long absence, Chris asks about what to do when the time frame for your goals doesn’t align with the types of places you work, and Chris and Ed try to enjoy being together in the same place while hoping the noise from the hand dryer in the bathroom on the other side of the wall from them doesn’t cause a ton of noise.</p> <p>Don’t worry, the podcast isn’t dead! Ed and Chris intend on talking to each other for a very very long time to come. However, you can expect to see less of us on the conference circuit in 2018. Both Chris and Ed have decided that for personal reasons they need to reduce their travel schedules.</p> <h2>Do these things!</h2> <ul> <li>Support us via our <a href="https://patreon.com/devhell">Patreon</a></li> <li>Buy stickers at <a href="http://devhell.info/shop">devhell.info/shop</a></li> <li>Follow us on <strong>Twitter</strong> <a href="https://twitter.com/dev_hell">here</a></li> <li><strong>Rate us</strong> on iTunes <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/dev-hell/id489840699">here</a></li> </ul> <h2>Listen</h2> <iframe frameborder='0' height='200px' scrolling='no' seamless src='https://embed.simplecast.com/4c4fd48e?color=f5f5f5' width='100%'></iframe> <p><a href="http://audio.simplecast.com/4c4fd48e.mp3" rel="enclosure">Download now (MP3)</a></p> <h1>Links and Notes</h1> <ul> <li><a href="http://matchboxstudio.org/">Matchbox Cowork Studio</a></li> <li><a href="http://blacksparrowpub.com/">The Black Sparrow</a></li> <li>Apologies to Martin Fowler for attributing this awesome post about <a href="https://www.martinfowler.com/articles/testing-culture.html">testing at Google</a> hosted by Mr. Fowler and written by Mike Bland to Michael Feathers</li> </ul>

It has been probably the most gratifying year in a long time for both Chris and Ed. Chris' work at Mozilla has really changed his perspective on the value of the open web and his future. Ed finally got the chance to sink his teeth into a true leadership role at GraphStory and with a lot of help OSMI became a non-profit poised to continue doing excellent work in the field of bringing awareness to mental health issues.</p> <p>Crazy travel schedules, the last TrueNorthPHP, Chris and Ed laughing about things more than usual, and a very passionate non-testing-related speech from Chris can be found in this final episode of 2016.</p> <p>We know 2016 sucked for a lot of people and 2017 is likely to suck worse. Hang in there, we will be here for you.</p> <p>Feel like helping OSMI raise some money this Christmas while consuming conspicuously?
