NPR's Book of the Day - Two books revisit the cultural impacts of Tina Turner, Duke Ellington and more

Today's episode highlights two books that revisit the cultural contributions of some pretty big names. First, Here & Now's Deepa Fernandes speaks with Deborah Paredez about American Diva, which reclaims the word 'diva' to celebrate the singularity of women like Serena Williams and Celia Cruz. Then, NPR's Michel Martin speaks with Larry Tye about The Jazzmen, which traces the role that Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong and Count Basie played in the civil rights movement.

The Stack Overflow Podcast - Battling ticket bots and untangling taxes at the frontiers of e-commerce

You can find Ilya on LinkedIn here.

You can listen to Ilya talk about Commerce Components here, a system he describes as a "modern way to approach your commerce architecture without reducing it to a (false) binary choice between microservices and monoliths."

As Ilya notes, “there are a lot of interesting implications for runtime and how we're solving it at Shopify. There is a direct bridge there to a performance conversation as well: moving untrusted scripts off the main thread, sandboxing UI extensions, and more.” 

No badge winner today. Instead, user Kaizen has a question about Shopify that still needs an answer. Maybe you can help!
