139: Process Improvement with Stefanni Brasil

Every once in a while, it is wise to stop for a second and think about why we do things in a specific way and whether we need to change something. This is where rethinking processes kick in.


Today we talk with Stefanni Brasil, a co-founder of hexdevs, a senior developer at Thoughtbot, and a core maintainer of faker-ruby. Stefanni is also a co-host of the hexdevs podcast, a show helping developers take their Ruby career to the next level. 

She tells us about her keen interest in processes, why they matter, and when the time is ripe to reevaluate them. 

When you finish listening to the episode, visit Stefanni's blog, check out the Hexdevs website, and listen to the hexdevs podcast.

In this show, hosts M. Scott Ford and Ray Myers are out to change the way you think about legacy code.

If you're like a lot of people, when you hear the words "legacy code" it conjures up images of big mainframes and archaic punch card machines. While that's true — it only tells a small part of the story. The code you leave behind is your legacy, so let's make it a good one.
