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…
It's been far too long since we've chatted with the great Brian Beckman, an astrophysicist, software architect, and
Channel 9 icon. Some of you may know him as the wizard who appears out of
thin air whenever the word Monad is said three times in succession. :->A few weeks ago,…
Happy new year! It's hard to believe that it's 2010. To start off the new year, 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 decided…

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…
Clojure is a dynamic programming language created by Rich Hickey that targets both the Java Virtual Machine and the CLR. It is designed to be a general-purpose language, combining
the approachability and interactive development of a scripting language with an efficient and robust…
Erik Meijer and team (developer Wes Dyer, in particular) have created a profound and beautiful .NET library that will take managed event based programming to new levels. Of course, many of you wish that you could write LINQ expressions over events. Well,
now you can thanks to Erik's and Wes…
