Are you still in touch with Jeremy, either by mail or in person?
Thank you for the podcast - you both should be very proud of it.

How has the govt/authorities pushed back on releasing Leo? Even with the confession

Okay, I will get on that soon. Due to some prior commitments, I won’t be able to put full effort into learning programming yet. Will have free time in late December, so I’ll get on that!
Even thought of trying to get into porn as an amateur. Thought those two would go well together

I love your experience and field you are in. This is an amazing journey that you have done. I'm happy to hear you worked for tinder.
As I'm seeing there are many problems with dating apps and less features (I have some idelogies regarding problems which still exists).
You know it as well. That's why I'm thinking about these things more deeply.🙂

Hey, not sure what you're getting at. I've been a professional software engineer for almost 20 years now and have built a bunch of things (Tinder and Porndora just happen to be 2 of many).
If you have a specific idea for an app, I'm happy to give my 2 cents ;)

I saw you were a tinder engineer earlier.
Why you don't think you can build a App like tinder or similar which preform well and people love it more than similar Apps?
I'm thinking to give a try for this idea.

Sorry for delayed response, I didn't realize I could keep answering after the live AMA ended (thank you for teaching this ol dog new tricks!). Surprisingly I dont think Ive ever been asked this before, but it does open up a whole can of potential jokes! Would I join the Mens department of the Navy? Chair Force? Big green machine?
All jokes aside, for me the question is a little more about which other component of the Special Operations Community would I join? Marsoc is the new kid on the block and advancing really quickly, but I would say the Marine Corps is my dad's service and sometimes the Marine Corps is too hoorah for my style (no offense, the fleet navy is the same way for me). Plus I look terrible with a high and tight and the Marines are pretty serious about their grooming standards. Army is great, and I love the SF ODAs and their mission and culture. All the door kicking, but they tend to be older and wiser than my community in the SEAL teams. Quite honestly Im not sure my language skills are up to par for SF. I would have to work real hard. That leaves AFSOC. The AFSOC community is the least known of the special operations component, but really interesting. At this stage in my life, the AFSOC emphasis on Pararescue I think would be my second choice behind Naval Special Warfare. Every PJ/Pararescue person I has met is the ultimate professional, and I think the mission and training is really unique and high speed. So gun to my head, yeah, Air Force (plus the golf courses are great).

We have a modern tech stack, full-stack Typescript with a GraphQL API. We run node on the BE and React on the FE.
It's actually easier to get a programming job in the adult industry I think as there are so many people who refuse to work in this industry because of moral or societal biases.
My advice is the same for anybody looking to become a developer:
-
Learn how to code. I recommend javascript as it's the most ubiquitous language and you can most easily work full-stack if you know javascript.
-
Practice. Do exercises on Leetcode or Hackerrank. Build your own things. Get good enough where you don't need to google in order to code simple tasks.
-
Pick a focus (e.g. web or mobile or backend). It's really hard to be a decent full-stack developer. Pick an area that you enjoy and get really good at it. You'll be much more hirable.
-
Interview, a lot. You'll probably need to interview at 10-20 companies before you can do well enough at the interview to get hired. This means you probably need to apply to 50 to 100 jobs just to past the recruiters and get enough interviews. At this stage in your career, it's a numbers game. Improve your odds by being a great communicator and a great problem solver.
-
Use Porndora, a lot. :) Lmk what you think of the site. As soon as you're ready, I'm happy to interview you for a role at Porndora. We're always looking for talented people who want to change the adult industry for the better.

Hi Gilbert & Kelsey! Are you planning on covering any other cases in future podcasts? I really enjoyed Bone Valley and would love to hear more.
my questions about Leo's case:
- if Jeremy committed the murder as he describes it, how can the lack of blood in the vehicle be explained?
- if Jeremy broke into her car and stole her stereo, how can the locked car be explained? (I'm no expert but I can't imagine a thief locking up after themselves)
- if Michelle picked up Jeremy to give him a ride on her way home from work, how can the fact that her purse was found in her and Leo's home be explained?
- I know this is not really an answerable question, but in case you did learn anything about this, why was Leo's father not more thoroughly investigated considering his vehicle was seen both at his son's trailer the night of the murder and at the location of the victim's car after her disappearance? and then to just magically know where to find her body? Does Leo have any suspicions about his father's possible involvement?
