Today Quincy Larson interviews Chris Griffing is a software engineer and prolific streamer of live coding on Twitch. He spent 10 years as a snowboard bum doing odd jobs at ski resorts to facilitate him spending as much time on the mountain as possible.
At age 28 he taught himself PHP programming and started building websites for friends. In 2018 he started streaming himself programming on Twitch, which blew up during the pandemic and has lead to more opportunities as a dev and developer advocate.
We talk about:
- How he learned programming at age 28 and built projects for friends before going pro
- How learning Go made him a better Rust Developer and why you should be a polyglot programmer
- How Chris uses LLM tools but still builds most codebases manually
- Tips for building projects in public for anyone interested in also stream coding
