There was a podcast with Joel and Jeff as they talked through the development of Stackoverflow. It seemed that Joel had hired Jeff to code it, and then discussed what it should be like, and then as Jeff had something to show they talked about where it would go.
Meanwhile, there is plenty of software physiology sprinkled all throughout. It was a fascinating podcast.
At least that's what I remember from it, I haven't listened to it since it came out, what... 15 years ago??

- codinghorror 3y ago"hired" is a bit of a stretch! Joel had some design input, and the original "let's replace this terrible thing with something better" idea for sure, and Expert-sex-change was the mimeograph, but it was me, Jarrod Dixon and Geoff Dalgas and then Kevin Dente in the earliest days.
- thefourthchime 3y agoHoly shit! Thanks for the correction Jeff!
