Andrew and Chris dive into issues with SMTP configuration on new Digital Ocean droplets, their experiences with various email delivery gems like Postmark and Mailtrap and go over some best practices for handling account creation and user associations in Rails applications. The conversation also touches on deployment automation, developing new features like the inbox on Podia, and the importance of having visual tools and browser extensions for effective debugging. They share some lighter moments discussing fun side projects, including Andrew's insult generator app and their humorous take on turning everyday developer annoyances into creative gem ideas. The episode wraps up with some Stripe announcements and TV show recommendations.
