Our discussion ventures into the dynamic landscape of the tech job market, sparking a thought-provoking debate on the value of junior versus senior developers in building a resilient digital future. We also underscore the critical role of checklists in enhancing product development, inspired by insights from "The Checklist Manifesto." By integrating accessibility audits and security consultations, we reveal how checklists can transform development processes, ensuring products are secure and accessible from the start. The conversation extends to the cutting-edge application of AI in threat modeling, highlighting the importance of strategic objectives that place security and accessibility at the forefront. We further explore the essential art of communication within organizations and its pivotal role in seamless security integration. This dialogue emphasizes the significance of leadership in cultivating an environment where trust and verification coalesce, promoting a culture of thorough security checks and balances. As we dissect the concept of Service Level Agreements (SLAs), our discussion illuminates their dual function as both security mechanisms and corporate assurances, advocating for the early adoption of security measures in business strategies. Experience firsthand how security features, like multi-factor authentication, can serve not just as protective measures but as compelling marketing and product differentiators. Don't miss this enriching conversation that bridges the gap between cybersecurity practices and software development, offering invaluable insights for professionals navigating the intricate landscape of tech innovation.

Josh Goldberg Hi, I’m Josh! I’m an independent full time open source developer. I work on projects in the TypeScript ecosystem, most notably typescript-eslint: the tooling that enables ESLint and Prettier to run on TypeScript code. I’m also the author of the O’Reilly Learning TypeScript book, a Microsoft MVP for developer technologies, and an active conference speaker. My personal projects range from static analysis to meta-languages to recreating retro games in the browser. Also cats. Connect with Josh [bsky / GitHub / Mastodon / Twitter / Twitch / www] ...
