Software Developers Journey
#138 Kristy-Leigh Minehan almost burned seeking a crypto highscore

Season 4

Episode 7
Kristy took us from her early ROM-hacking years, all the way to her crypto-mining rabbit hole. She described in detail how she optimized her machines to ever-better mine cryptocurrencies. We then bifurcated toward the tale of how she almost changed the proof algorithm of Ethereum, became the center of a smear campaign, and earned a heavy burnout instead. We finally talked about helping developers as managers to not face those problems.
