A viewer wanted to know how much your major in post-secondary education matters when it comes to software development.
As with all things software engineering... it depends!
Let's discuss considerations for your major.
Can't Deal With It! This Software Developer Won't Follow Standards!
A topic from Reddit for this video: How do we handle a developer who refuses to follow standards?

I'll share my thoughts on this in this video!
How To Level Up As A Tech Lead - Interview With Anemari Fiser
What does it take to be a Tech Lead in software engineering? I sat down with Anemari Fiser to discuss!
We dug into:
- What is a tech lead?
- How to move into the role?
- How do soft skills fit into the picture?
Thanks so much for the perspective, Anemari!
Use Redis With HybridCache to Cache Your EF Core Data!
In earlier videos in the series, we saw how we could convert our Entity Framework Core data access from IMemoryCache to HybridCache!
But... there was one big problem:
It was still just a memory cache behind the scenes!
Let's see how we can get Redis wired up to our HybridCache!
It's INEVITABLE! Software Engineers MUST Choose Manager or IC
From the ExperiencedDevs subreddit, the original poster asked about what seems like the inevitable scenario for all software developers: Do you stick to the IC path or go to management?
But... is that the inevitable decision for everyone? Why should you consider the management track?

Be kind. That's it. That's the post. And there's a video too, I guess.
Dealing with WRONG Feedback as a Software Engineer
From the ExperiencedDevs subreddit, the OP wanted to know how to deal with feedback from a manager that is not correct. Sounds like some lingering issues from their previous software engineering manager.
Let's discuss!
Just Vibes? Software Engineering Doom or Productivity Boom?
Everyone is talking about AI, and software engineers are put into a pretty awkward spot with all of the discussions.
Are we in an AI bubble? Is it all just hype? Is AI stealing our jobs or making us better?
Where do we go from here, as software engineers?
