My Coding Over Cocktails Interview Is out Now
Bill Doerrfeld | May 17, 2021
I recently was interviewed for the Coding Over Cocktails podcast by TORO Cloud. We talked about the Nordic APIs mission, trends we're seeing in the API economy in 2021, and where the future lies with improved developer experiences and new abstraction layers. And yes, I had a cocktail — a Moscow mule. 🍹
The podcast is on Spotify below. It's also on Apple Podcasts. There's also a full transcription here. It was an honor speak about my career thus far and what I've noticed profiling the API economy over the past six years. Congratulations to the TORO Cloud team for organizing such a pro series.
Here's to "making the world more programmable!"
