The Future of Data w/ Kelsey Hightower
<p>This episode features <a href="https://twitter.com/kelseyhightower">Kelsey Hightower</a> for a discussion across numerous topics.

How has that shaped your view on the industry? How do you think the industry performs at mentoring/cultivating young engineers, including those from non-CS degree backgrounds?</li><li>What are your thoughts on where distributed vs. monolithic architecture is going? How is “Edge Computing” impacted by this?</li><li>There has been a focus in the cloud provider space of bringing on new locations, trying to put infrastructure in hard to reach places.
