Microsoft recently released the Quantum Development Kit.Join Jerry Nixon as he welcomes Corporate Vice President of Microsoft Quantum, Todd Holmdahl , to the show as they discuss all of the major questions surrounding Quantum today. How does this division fit in Microsoft’s ecosystem? What is Q# and how will Quantum computing affect developers? Is Microsoft’s mission changing to “a Quantum computer on every desktop”? Find the answers to all of these questions and more!Subscribe and Watch the FULL interview here! [03:17] How do you anticipate your work at Microsoft Quantum to feed back into traditional products? What is it that you're doing exactly?[09:25] How does Microsoft Quantum relate to Microsoft Research?[09:55] Is Microsoft Quantum a software division, hardware division, or something else?[13:32] Microsoft is not the only group pursuing Quantum technology. Everyone quotes their number of qubits, sometimes physical, sometimes logical. Is there a difference?[19:15] Do you feel like there is room for more than one Quantum solution in the marketplace or is this a first-to-goal-wins scenario? Does Microsoft have a good chance?[20:33] Microsoft Quantum is special in many ways, and one of those is that we're building the "whole stack". How does this set us apart? Is this just marketing or is it truly meaningful?[24:39] Is Microsoft's mission changing to: "a Quantum computer on every desktop" soon? :) Or is this just for large enterprise organizations?[26:08] What do you see as the short and long term impact on developers?[33:30] Tell us about Q# and the Quantum Development Kit (QDK)?[41:00] What do you anticipate the first impacts being for the developer community?[47:15] What is the one take-away you hope our developer community hears today about MicrosoftIf you're interested in learning more about the products or solutions discussed in this episode, click on any of the below links for free, in-depth information:Websites & Blogs: Jerry Nixon's BlogLearn more about Microsoft Quantum and the Quantum Development Kit here

Git struggles to handle enterprise-scale repositories. Operations like cloning will slow to a crawl when you have millions of files in a repository, and even something as simple as getting your repository status will leave you waiting. The Git Virtual File System (GVFS) is an open source system that enables Git to operate at enterprise-scale. It makes using and managing massive Git repositories possible.In Part 3 of our 3 part series, Jerry Nixon, Saeed Noursalehi and Christian Allred show us what GVFS looks like under the hood and how you can start using it today. [01:36] Today you're going to show us some of the behind the scenes magic of GVFS, correct?[02:56] What is a mini-filter and why is this important in GVFS?[06:16] How does the mini-filter work in GVFS?[10:11] Can you give us some more info around the approach to cloaning?[23:45] Talk to us about Placeholder files[28:31] DEMO: What is tombstone?[48:13] What's next for GVFS?If you're interested in learning more about the products or solutions discussed in this episode, click on any of the below links for free, in-depth information:Websites & Blogs: Jerry Nixon's BlogLearn more about GVFS: Git at Enterprise Scale

Microsoft joined the Englander Institute of Precision Medicine (IPM) at Weill Cornell Medicine for a weeklong hackfest to develop a chatbot that supports both text and voice interactions with the Precision Medicine Knowledgebase (PMKB) for clinical cancer variants and interpretations.The knowledge base currently supports 163 genes and 518 variants with 404 clinical interpretations. Pathologists and researchers are tasked with accessing this information by clicking through the given portal; however, in an attempt to make the knowledge base more mobile, the team created a bot using the Microsoft Bot Framework that connects to several channels including Microsoft Teams, Skype, Slack, and WebChat. As a result, clinicians can now access this data in many different ways and make life-changing clinical decisions at a faster rate.Join Jerry Nixon and Heather Shapiro as they welcome Alex Sigaras from Weill Cornell Medicine as they walk us through the project and describe how they built their chatbot using various Microsoft technologies.[01:04] Talk to us a little bit about the Microsoft Bot Framework. What is it and what is it not?[07:25] What are some of the biggest barriers in medicine that are being broken down due to advancements in technology?[11:26] What project did Microsoft and Weill Cornell choose to tackle?[21:02] What was the expectation going into this project?

In the game of golf, many factors impact the ability to consistently drive or putt a golf ball to its exact intended destination. One of these factors is the pressure (or force) with which the golfer grips the golf club. There are multiple theories on what the right pressure on grip should be, but they are all subjective and hard to quantify. Until now.Join Jerry Nixon and Blain Barton as they welcome Davide Mauri, Director of Software Development & Cloud Infrastructure at Sensoria as they share with us how they developed a new high-tech IoT solution involving a smart, connected golf grip. Tune in as they discuss how they developed this “Smart Grip” solution along with professional golfer Bryson DeChambeau, which detected Bryson’s hand-on-grip position and levels of pressure, monitored his golf strokes on different clubs as well as relayed real-time data to Microsoft Azure intelligent systems.[14:37] Tell us a little bit about Sensoria. What do you do?[26:18] Tell us about the IoT project you worked on with PGA Tour professional, Bryson DeChambeau?[34:31] Can you describe how you created the special golf grip for the club and how you were able to collect data from it?[39:20] What's next for Sensoria?If you're interested in learning more about the products or solutions discussed in this episode, click on any of the below links for free, in-depth information:Websites & Blogs: Jerry Nixon's BlogLearn more about Sensoria here.
