You maintain a project with 10,000 stars. You depend on 50 upstream packages. You follow 5 RFC processes across different ecosystems. GitHub notifications: 200+ per day.
You’re drowning in information about code you’re responsible for.
Reading all of this takes 2-3 hours per day. Time that should be spent writing code.
Save the blog posts, RFC summaries, and security advisories to audiclip. Listen during your morning coffee before opening the IDE.
What to save:
Two hosts discuss each: “The new React RFC proposes [X]. Here’s what it means for library authors.” “A CVE was published for [dependency]. The second host asks: Are we affected?”
Maintainers make decisions that affect thousands of downstream users. An uninformed decision — using a deprecated API, missing a security advisory, ignoring an RFC that changes the ecosystem — creates work for everyone.
20 minutes of daily listening keeps you informed enough to make good architectural decisions without spending half your day reading.
Your code affects thousands. Stay informed without drowning.
