About Me

I'm a sofware engineer at NeshanMaps, who has seen (and probably, caused) various production incidents. I started Podkates to be my diary of things i wish nobody see in my resume, and a guidline for my felow programmer friends to how not to mess things up.

Here we will laugh, be scared, and be shocked of what can our tiny fingers do to the production servers. I do this only to enjoy my time and life, and I hope this podcast makes you enjoy your life and time. Wether you're a programmer or a marketing manager, this podcast is my way to make you feel good. :)
