Description

Web development isn't as simple as it used to be. We can't view the source of any webpage and be able to recreate it anymore, it's all bundled and obfuscated. That increased complexity comes from the increasingly larger role that the internet is taking on in our society and the need for our websites to do more than display static information.The growing role of software in our society has had its consequences. Addictive design, and biases being built into software waste people's time at best, but also have the devastating ability to ruin lives. In this episode, Cher Scarlett brings awareness to these issues and recommends some books that you can read to educate yourself further.HomeworkRead one or more of the following booksRace After TechnologyTechnically WrongAlgorithms of OppressionHello World: Being Human in the Age of AlgorithmsGuest: Cher ScarlettTwitter: @cherthedevGitHub: @cherscarlettWebsite: cher.devHost: Kent C.
