On last week's show, we talked about "Side Hustles" - those extracurricular activities that we do in order to earn a little extra income. On this week's show, we want to talk about the flip-side to that coin: the coding that we do on the side because we freakin' love coding! Carol celebrates the WordPress site that she's built and now maintains for her son's band, including the ability to accept payments and donations. And, Ben talks about trying to build a feature flag system using Lucee CFML and Angular. He also confesses that his blog has historically had a negative impact on his resolution to do more exploratory work. We also get to argue a bit about just how sexy TypeScript actually is.
