Our guest in Episode 015 is John Newman, Senior Software Engineer (Java/Spring/Oracle). After growing up on a steady diet of BBSes, John went from the physical therapy program to the programming program. After his start in Ops he moved to Dev and has been coding ever since. John talks about developing for the fun of it, his early days on the dial-up bulletin board systems in Boston, and how coaching youth sports helps him with his job.    What is a BBS - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulletin_board_system Commodore 64 - https://www.google.com/amp/s/gizmodo.com/a-commodore-64-clone-with-a-working-retro-keyboard-will-1835836875/amp Umass Lowell CS Dept. - https://www.uml.edu/sciences/computer-science/ BU Met CS - https://bumetprograms.bu.edu/computerscience/ Spring Boot - https://spring.io/projects/spring-boot
