As always, no quantization or pitch correction. Far from perfect, but better than where I was 6 months ago. It took me more than 150 takes to get all 4 instruments.
The podcast is live on freeCodeCamp's YouTube.

Also note that they keyboard in the video doesn't line up with the audio. The take in the audio got mixed up with dozens of other takes. :)

Haha I can't remember but a lot of 80s stuff. Some Japanese like T-Square and some western like Brand X.

Looking for chill people who are serious about their skills, their career, and being part of the global developer community long-term.
Ideal guests:
- Have been working as a dev for at least a year
- Primarily an IC (not a PM / Dev Advocate / Founder)
2/3

Yes – I'll see if @rafaeldavish.bsky.social can order some 2XL shirts, screen print them, and add them to the store. Thanks for the suggestion.

Haha that's an awesome one. That involves some pretty fast shredding but I'll work up toward it.

We screen print these shirts within two weeks of you ordering them and ship them your way.
You can pick up as many of these shirts as you want at shop.freecodecamp.org.
Happy coding.

We made one-time investments in the screen printing gear, flash dryer, platens, thermal printer, and other tools.
A dev on our team has experience with screen printing.
And the US Postal Service gives us reliable and inexpensive infra to get the shirts to you.

You may be wondering: why print our own shirts and ship them ourselves? Why not just outsource it?
Simple: we want to keep costs as low as possible, so everyone can afford one. We want to ensure quality is as high as possible.

That's right – we'll do this for you. Not that we don't trust authors to not create good thumbnails, but we want to ensure there's no AI art, and that the text has high enough contrast for accessility reasons.
