In this video I talk to Alex from the "packagemain" youtube channel to understand about his developer workflow, get to know him a bit better and some of the tools he uses like Colima that I didn't know about.
He has a channel with 10,000 subs as of today, mainly talks about go, but expect topics related to programming in general
If you want to see more videos like this or you want me to continue with them, please let me know down in the comments

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
