What do web development, Twitch, VR, and blockchain all have in common? More than you might think. After years as a game developer, Ship Shape's longest-tenured employee Rob Cary was bound to put those unlikely virtual dots together and today he's here to share a few original insights. After meeting Robbie Wagner in an elementary school play as a couple of accountants, their lives continued to overlap. From a choice in college to a knack for web development, making sweet beats, and ultimately, their careers, an intro to Rob may sound identical to an intro to Robbie. But unlike Robbie Wagner, Rob Cary has years of VR experience under his belt. Not to mention, some interesting ideas about the future of our virtual metaverse. In this episode, Robbie, Chuck, and Rob discuss the wonders of WebStorm and IntelliJ, what on earth decentralized gaming is, how VR has transformed the gaming world, and the mostly unknown link between Twitch and web development. Key Takeaways * [00:28] - Introduction to Rob. * [01:27] - A whiskey review.  * [06:57] - Rob, Robbie, or both?  * [13:05] - Rob's technical background and the state of decentralized gaming. * [16:12] - A game of Stumped. * [24:50] - What Rob likes about WebStorm and IntelliJ. * [30:16] - A conversation about the VR universe, how it's transformed, and where we're headed.   * [39:10] - Why NFTs are everywhere.  * [43:20] - Rob's hobbies outside of gaming and websites. Quotes[26:35] - "VS Code is one of the few examples I've seen of an IDE that's really universally been adopted really quickly." ~ @r0bc4ry [https://twitter.com/r0bc4ry][34:50] - "Some of the things you can do on VR, you could just never do in a traditional game. The technology has a ton of promise, there are just fundamental issues that still are being worked on that I think need to be fixed." ~ @r0bc4ry [https://twitter.com/r0bc4ry]Links * Rob Cary [https://twitter.com/r0bc4ry] * React [https://reactjs.org] * Ember [https://emberjs.com] * Dojo [https://dojotoolkit.org] * Vuori [https://vuoriclothing.com] * Lululemon [https://shop.lululemon.com] * Widow Jane Rye Mash, Oak &amp; Applewood-Aged Whiskey [https://widowjane.com/whiskey/oak-and-apple-wood] * Twitter [http://twitter.com] * Whiskey Web and Whatnot: Next.js 12, React vs. Svelte, and the Future of Frameworks with Wes Bos [https://www.whiskeywebandwhatnot.fm/nextjs-12-react-vs-svelte-and-the-future-of-frameworks-with-wes-bos/] * Virginia Tech [https://vt.edu] * StarCraft [https://starcraft.com/en-us/] * Zoom [http://zoom.com] * Unity [https://unity.com] * Blockchain [https://www.blockchain.com] * Halo [https://www.halowaypoint.com] * Syntax [https://www.syntax.fm] * Web3 [https://web3js.readthedocs.io/en/v1.5.2/] * DoorDash [https://www.doordash.com] * Uber Eats [https://www.ubereats.com] * Async/await [https://javascript.info/async-await] * NativeScript [https://nativescript.org] * BlueJ [https://www.bluej.org] * JSON [https://www.json.org/json-en.html] * IntelliJ IDEA [https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/] * WebStorm [https://www.jetbrains.com/webstorm/] * Visual Studio Code [https://code.visualstudio.com] * Atom [https://atom.io] * yarn install [https://classic.yarnpkg.com/en/docs/cli/install/]

Decentralized Gaming, IntelliJ, Twitch, and the Shortcomings of Modern VR with Rob Cary

Senator Ted Stevens was charged in federal court right before his election. He turned the famed criminal defense firm of Williams &amp; Connolly to defend him. Rob Cary, who tried the case with Brendan Sullivan, discusses defending a well-known political figure at trial and also what turned into one of the biggest cases of prosecutorial misconduct in this Nation's history.

Rob Cary for Sen. Ted Stevens

Today, Rob Cary, a defense attorney for Senator Ted Stevens of Alaska, released a new book – Not Guilty: The Unlawful Prosecution of U.S. Senator Ted Stevens (NACDL Press/Thomson Reuters) – recounting the trial six years ago of a powerful senator. On Oct. 27, 2008, Stevens was wrongfully found guilty of allegedly failing to disclose gifts, leading him to lose reelection just  eight days later by 3,953 votes. But in April 2009, Judge Emmet G. Sullivan vacated the verdict at the request of Attorney General Eric Holder after it was revealed that prosecutors had withheld evidence of innocence from the defense. More than the story of a trial, Cary details how a federal prosecution team conspired to bring down Stevens by hiding evidence and manipulating facts. I caught up with Rob in his office last week here in Washington, DC. Learn more about NACDL. Ivan J. Dominguez, host; Isaac Kramer, production assistant.
