**Brian Ketelsen:** Ship it! Ship it? |
**Carlisia Thompson:** It worked! Nice, thank you! |
**Brad Fitzpatrick:** Yeah, no problem. |
**Erik St. Martin:** I did not have one this week because I hadn't been doing a whole lot of new stuff. I just give a shoutout to all the people who are contributing libaries for sensors and things like that for Arduino because on last minute notice Brian and I were able to throw together something very quickly to stre... |
**Brian Ketelsen:** It was so awesome. It was epic. Best Easter ever. |
**Erik St. Martin:** I love some of the conversions though I think that need a CRC between the chips because I don't think like 4 billion degrees is a thing. \[laughter\] |
**Brian Ketelsen:** That's how you get the caramelization on the skin. |
**Erik St. Martin:** Right. It's like alternate simmering right there. |
**Carlisia Thompson:** We were so fast this time and we are not gonna talk about the Docker name change? |
**Brian Ketelsen:** No. We are not talking about the Docker name change because we don't want Brian's blood pressure to go any higher than it already is. |
**Carlisia Thompson:** Let it go... |
**Erik St. Martin:** \[laughter\] |
**Carlisia Thompson:** Alright then. |
**Erik St. Martin:** Alright so with that a big thank you to everybody on the show especially to Brad for coming on. Huge shoutout to our sponsors for today [Toptal](https://www.toptal.com/) and [Datadog](https://www.datadoghq.com/). Definitely share the show with fellow Go programmers, coworkers, friends. You can subs... |
**Brian Ketelsen:** Thank you Brad! |
**Brad Fitzpatrick:** Yep! Yep! |
**Carlisia Thompson:** Goodbye! |
