Ben is the longest tenured employee at Stack Overflow and he joined because of unicorns. It was his first developer job and he loved it. Then one he realized he might be an asshole to work with. New @corecursive episode is out and its Ben's story. Starting from coding side projects to working on one of the highest traffic web sites out there. And ending with a reflections on personal character and the perils of engineering driven orgs that frankly I needed to hear.

A four-panel meme image of the "Guy Incognito" scene on the Simpsons, inside and outside Moe's Bar. Guy: "Greetings good people, might I attempt to post a link?" Moe: "We will no longer allow free promotion of certain social media platforms on Twitter." Guy: "Social media? What is that? My name is Maast O'Don." Homer: "Oh my god! This man is my exact double."
