Description

In this episode, Dave and Jamison answer these questions:





  1. Hey Jamison and Dave, love your show!



    A question for you guys coming all the way from the Netherlands 🧀



    I’ve started as a software engineer in a gambling company lately and the moral aspect of it bothers me a bit.



    And while listening to you talking about the importance of accessibility in the last episode (#488) I came up with this moral dilemma: should a developer push for making a gambling app more accessible for users with disabilities or better not to? 😅



    Thank you 🖤




  2. Listener Arie Marie asks,



    What are some good ways to research prospective employers to see if they have a strong commitment to ethical and human values? What are good questions to ask prospective employers during an interview? How can I be a developer and do what I love, and know that I’m not making the income inequality greater? How do you develop a lens to look at a company and discern it’s positive impact? How do you know if you’re making the world a better place?
