It's been WAY too long since we've had Brian Beckman sharing knowledge, insights and perspectives on Channel 9. This changes now! Needless to say, I was incredibly happy to spend an hour with Brian learning all about what he's up to these days. Not surprisingly, he's writing code and employing…

In this latest edition of Expert to Expert (and Going Deep), the great Brian Beckman, astrophysicist and software architect, is joined by Greg Meredith, a mathematician and computer scientist. It's just bound to be an intellectual jam session!The idea for the format of this…

By now, you know Brian Beckman given how many times he's been featured on Channel 9 and, well, just how amazing he is. Brian is an astrophysicist and software architect currently working on a technology we can't talk about...yet...  Stay tuned for that. Dr. Beckman is the perfect…

Part 3 of the Beckman Meijer Co/Contravariance in Physics and Programming Hypothesis/Challenge has finally arrived, Niners!  You learned about Brian Beckman's perspective on covariance and contravariance in physics. Erik Meijer found this topic to be incredibly interesting and the…

Happy new year! It's hard to believe that it's 2010. To start off the new year right, how about some Beckman and Meijer? You recently learned about Dr. Beckman's perspective on covariance and contravariance in physics. Dr. Meijer found this topic to be incredibly interesting and the two geniuses…

The Coding4Fun Show is a new series dedicated to interviewing people creating fun and interesting projects with a bit of "how to" mixed in. In this first episode, I interview Andy Beaulieu, creator of the Physics Helper for Silverlight, Blend, and Farseer.  Learn a bit about…

Before a plane flies for the first time, in the sky, it has flown many thousands of virtual miles in distributed clusters of computation cells, calculating non-linear differential equations of fluid dynamics.  Intelligent Light, with its Fortran and Python writing programmers, represents a…

Damian Conway is widely-known for his event speaking and software development training skills—areas in which he's among the world's best. He's also contributed important modules to Perl and is an important member of the Perl community. He is the CEO of Thoughtstream, a training company for…

From something as simple as a paperclip to far more complex machines such as computers, there are a wide variety of machines forming a regular part of our daily lives. None, however, come close to the complexity found in the machine that is the human being.When you think of Microsoft, you might…
