Show Notes
In this episode of JavaScript Jabber, I am joined by three incredible guests — Ariel Shulman, Liad Yosef, and Evyatar Alush — to dive into the world of public speaking in tech. From the jitters of their first talk to the professional and personal growth that comes with hitting the stage, we unpack the full journey of becoming a tech speaker. Whether you're just curious about getting started or want to sharpen your presentation game, this episode is packed with real talk and insights from experienced voices in the community.
We get personal about the why, the how, and the what next of conference speaking — covering the motivations, the process of getting accepted, tips for preparing standout talks, and even how public speaking can open doors to career-changing opportunities. If you've ever wondered what it really takes to be heard on stage, this conversation might just be your launchpad.

AI is writing more of our code than ever before—but should we actually trust it? In this episode of JavaScript Jabber, I sat down with Itamar Friedman from Qodo (formerly Quoto) to dig into one of the biggest questions developers are wrestling with right now: What happens when AI is generating code, reviewing code, and shaping how we ship software?
