One tech story a day, and the call I'd actually make. Daily podcast for people who build and run software in production. Each episode turns one tech-industry story into a concrete engineering or operational decision: ship vs rollback, architecture, security, reliability, cost, on-call, migrations, or AI in prod. Not general news, politics, lifestyle, or transport unless the production lesson is the spine.
