Never Rewrite: Software Engineering & AI Coding

Isaac Askew and Jeffrey Sherman

‘Never Rewrite’ is a mantra of ours in the programming realm. Often times when software developers encounter nightmare codebases, the thought crosses their mind to work towards a rewrite, a port to a new language, or despair that their code is unfixable.

It’s not unfixable, and we explore how to get started along with an array of other software topics in our eponymous podcast.
