Episode Synopsis

In this podcast episode, we discover why most developers stick to databases they know, even if they're not the best fit for the job. Then, we blast off to 1991 for the first email sent from space, complete with a cheeky sign-off. We also rewind to a time when the first-ever webcam was set up for an unexpectedly mundane reason, and for the gamers, we explore the amusing story of why a gun sound in Wolfenstein had to be toned down, because of it's unexpected effects on the gameplay.Stay updated with new weekly episodes every Thursday – and don't forget to subscribe!
