Speaker: Professor Mateo Aboy (University of Cambridge)Session 1: AI Transforming Protected Subject MatterOn Saturday 29th March 2025, the Centre for Intellectual Property and Information Law (CIPIL) held its Annual Spring Conference entitled 'Is AI Transforming IP?'For the last few years, lots of attention has been paid to AI and IP. The Supreme Court has already considered whether AI can be regarded as an inventor. There is also on-going litigation, in various jurisdictions, on whether training AI systems with copyright material infringes copyright, in what circumstances the outputs might infringe; as well as when, if at all, AI-generated content, designs or other outputs might be protected by intellectual property rights and, if so, for whose benefit.While these are important questions that involve the application of the existing understandings of the law to new factual scenarios, the conference moved beyond them to focus on: (i) what AI reveals about existing law; and (ii) how AI might be changing IP, altering the legal tests with which we have become familiar, as well as the assumptions that underlie them – and what the implications might be.For more information see:https://www.cipil.law.cam.ac.uk/seminars-and-events/cipil-spring-conference

In this episode, we dive deep into the world of clean coding with none other than the master and pioneer of the field, Uncle Bob. We explore the nuances and the art behind writing effective and efficient scripts. This conversation covers the nitty-gritty of writing and editing scripts, from understanding how to break down large functions, to discussing principles like 'Single Responsibility Principle', 'Dependency Inversion Principle' and how to balance the 'DRY' (Don't Repeat Yourself) principles. Uncle Bob also shares valuable insights on testing, handling errors, naming conventions and how to work with different types of duplication in coding. He shares recommended resources and books that every coder should read.

Moderated by David Rosenberg, Professor from the Center for Corporate Integrity at Zicklin School of Baruch College, this lecture focuses on the new OpenAI's  ChatGPT. Last November 2022, OpenAI unleashed ChatGPT, a free chatbot that creates text using AI technology. ChatGPT demonstrates remarkable abilities, such as passing exams from law, business, and medical schools and its text-generation capabilities have also been used for simpler tasks such as to writing Shakespearean sonnets, discussing complicated topics, and composing heartfelt love songs. As the hype around ChatGPT continues to grow, new ethical concerns are emerging about the development and use of AI tools. In the chat, Professor Yafit Lev-Aretz and Professor Nizan Packin discuss the current state of ethics in artificial intelligence and machine learning, and the importance of responsible AI in today's society. Participants will have the opportunity to engage in the discussion, ask questions, and share their own experiences and perspectives on the ethical considerations of ChatGPT.

Lisp is the second oldest programming language still in wide use. Designed by John McCarthy in 1958, it introduced several new ideas to the field of programming languages, including but not limited to homoiconicity (code is data), the centrality of the list data structure, and automatic memory management. However, its parentheses heavy syntax and use of prefix notation have proved controversial amongst some programmers. For many decades it was the mainstay of AI research, and it even had entire hardware platforms designed around its efficient execution. Today, Lisp's legacy lives on through its influence on other languages and its modern dialects like Scheme and Clojure.

Overview Programming is not just about creating enterprise-level apps but can be put to work to help people express themselves creatively in many different ways. This is just one of a few profound takeaways from today’s show, where we got a chance to sit down with Pine Wu, former Visual Studio Code developer at Microsoft who built Vetur, a language server that enhances the Vue editing experience. We talk to Pine about Vetur’s background and functionality, his current nomadic pursuits, and his approach to programming as an art or a means to art more than anything else. On the subject of Vetur, Pine explains the context behind the name, and what led him to build the project in the first place. He speaks about how he built out early versions of Vetur by leveraging open source code from other platforms, how the project blew up overnight, its current abilities, and what the future holds. From there, we move on to discuss Pine’s thoughts about what coding means to him. We touch on ideas about the value of exploring content outside of one's discipline, the line between learning and building, and how the tools we create and use structure the way we think about what we work on as well as what we build. Pine also shares a bunch of cool resources today – creative projects using Vue and other frameworks, as well as key texts and talks that have influenced his ideas about art, perception, tools, and computer science. For a wide-reaching conversation about creativity, learning, and writing software that is useful to the world outside of corporations, be sure to tune in! Key Points From This Episode: The human languages and programming languages Pine is fluent in. Matthew Butterick’s work with Racket and why Pine wants to learn this language next. The line between learning and building; recent projects Pine did and what they taught him. Pine’s approach to learning programming as a means of achieving his creative ends. The added perceptive abilities you get from learning things outside of your field. Why ‘computer science’ is a misnomer, describing an art more than a science; how Pine got into programming. New features in Vue 3 and the changes Pine has to make to Vetur to support them. The online channels that Pine is most active on; where to find him if you’d like to get in touch.

The goal of the “busy beaver” game is to find the longest-running computer program. Its pursuit has surprising connections to profound questions in math.

Key Points From This Episode: - An intro into Pine, his experiences at Microsoft, and the work he does in Visual Studio Code. - What leading a nomadic life means to Pine, and the things he enjoys learning as a freelancer. - Pine’s ideas about not only being a programmer but wanting to study graphic design too. - An intro into Vetur, Pine’s project that provides autocomplete functionality for Vue files. - How Pine has expanded Vetur’s functionality beyond autocomplete and diagnostic errors. - The beginnings of Vetur: Pine’s love of Vue which wasn’t compatible with VS Code. - How Pine developed early Vetur versions by copy-pasting and modifying parts of existing support from other platforms. - The story of Vetur’s huge early success after the creator of Repl tweeted about it. - Humor in Pine’s talks and how his non-sugarcoated approach plays into this. Pine’s rapid prototyping tool and how it fits in with his passion for enabling expressive coding. - Perspectives on the idea that tools shape how we think and what we build. - Pine’s thoughts on future Vetur upgrades: A type renaming tool and more. Tweetables: - “If you are editing a TypeScript or JavaScript file in your Visual Studio Code, you see that after you press a dot you see a lot of autocompletions. Those are powered by what is called a language server and a language server basically analyzes the whole code base, breaks your code into abstract syntax trees, analyzes them, and then gives you autocompletion and diagnostic errors. Vetur basically does that for Vue files.” — @octref [0:07:34] - “As a programmer, my passion is not writing enterprise-level or large scale Vue apps. My interest is more in the expressive side of coding.” — @octref [0:17:01] - “Without a microscope, you are unable to work with bacteria. Without a telescope, you are unable to work with galaxies. It’s only with these tools that you can perceive certain things.” — @octref [0:22:10] Links Mentioned in Today’s Episode: - Pine Wu on GitHub (https://github.com/octref) - Pine Wu on Twitter (https://twitter.com/octref?lang=en) - Pine Wu Blog (https://blog.matsu.io/) - Vetur (https://vuejs.github.io/vetur/) - Mrmrs (http://mrmrs.cc/) - Von, 菅野 よう子 (Kanno Yōko), ft.

There is lots of talk about Functional Programming but how do you make the transition to this different programming paradigm? John Novak is a very talented software engineer who has always been fascinated by computers since he was a teenager! He has a deep understanding of a variety of programming languages including C/ C++, Java and has been programming commercially in Scala for the past 4 years. John describes how initially learning Functional Programming as a hobby fundamentally changed his problem-solving skills and way of thinking. John offers lots of advice on how other programmers can make the transition to Functional Programming. Please find below books and online courses he recommends.

Adam talks to Hal Abelson about the textbook he coauthored in 1984, SICP and why it is still popular and influential today. "If you pick up almost any computing book it starts out 'here are these datatypes, these operations that you do' and somewhere around 20 or 30% through the book, they show you how to define a function or a procedure. Whereas we really take the opposite approach. We say the key thing is abstraction. So we kind of start there." "The axe [the book] is grinding is that people write programs to do one particular thing. And then the price of that is that a whole lot of software engineering ends up being trying to get out of the hole you dug yourself into because you made a program that was too specific."

This week David and Marina discuss software in design and architecture. Don't worry! It's not as boring as it sounds! The two cover the more pragmatic and specific issues and the more conceptual ones: everything from what programs you need to know to design and to get hired different offices; how to learn programs; balancing technical skillsets with conceptual thinking; why working in the computer is both advantageous and dangerous; 2D drafting versus 3D modeling; things to consider when choosing a software; the failures of successes of BIM programs for employers and employees; key issues to consider before transitioning to BIM; what BIM programs are best (Revit or ArchiCAD?) for small and large offices and which project types (the more office-focused and BIM-focused conversation starts at 37:30) and workflows between different programs.   ------------------------------------------------------------ The Midnight Charette is now The Second Studio.

Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs talked about abstraction barriers as a way to hide the intricacies of data structures made out of cons cells. Is this concept still useful in a world of literal hashmaps with string keys? I say, yes, but in a much more limited way than before. In this episode, we go into what abstraction barriers are, why (and why not) to use them, and the limits of their usefulness.

HOW TO SHORT CAPITALISM: THE CRYPTO-POLITICAL ECONOMY OF ECSA Economic Space Agency (ECSA) is building the next generation network infrastructure for programmable economies. Most blockchain and distributed ledger technologies applications are oriented toward the creation of distributed markets, reinforcing rather than disrupting oligarchic concentration of wealth over time and questioning what “value” is actually traded. ECSA offers something different: a fully integrated, commons-oriented approach to cryptoeconomy. Economic Space + Cryptophilosophy + Post-Capitalism + Speculative Economy + Fabulation I met with Erik Bordeleau at the ECSA 'Economic Space Design Program' in the Haus der Statistik Werkstatt in Berlin to find out exactly what is 'Economic Space' and how we can claim agency. The readings and notes come from the subsequent 'Token Logic Design' seminar series with Erik at the School of Disobedience, Art and the Blockchain. ----more---- Edited transcript: JR: Can you tell me what exactly the Economic Space Agency is? I imagine intergalatic cryptocurrencies… EB: As it exists now comes from an initiative called ‘Robin Hood Hedge Fund Coop’ making captures on the actual financial markets. We were able to gather some money and redistribute it to projects that we found interesting. Commons-oriented projects essentially. And then blockchain and distributed ledger technologies came in. We were being Robin Hoods of the traditional markets, which can only go up to a certain point. Then with distributed ledger technologies, you can start to imagine creating new markets or new financial stratas that you can start operating with. The way I understand it is the opportunity to create a thousand financial plateaus, from which you can start deterritorializing finance as it exists, and start making value a little bit more multi-dimensional. One of the things we used to say at ECSA is that we are stuck in a mono economy, where everything gets valued within a very narrow set of coordinates, which we call capitalism. Which generates as all we know tremendous externalities. The way forward towards a post-capitalist economy needs to be towards recognising all these values that are considered external to our economic system. JR: What is fabulation? EB: Fabulation is a way of saying that you can't think of the 'real' economy, as opposed to the speculative economy. The economy is always speculative, all the way down. That's not something to judge, or it's not something to deplore. It's something to accept, to deal with, so we need to accept that we are also part of self-fulfilling prophecies or processes. We are part of that. We're a little bit lunatic at times, we are entertaining ideas that seem completely incredible. But it's part of the game. The economic game is fuelled with dreams, and fabulation is a term to name the passage from the virtual to the actual. As one philosopher I really like says 'Only people who are dreaming can modify someone else's dream'. You can't just go up to someone and make them change their minds. You have to be meeting people in the space where they dream, they're also dreaming of something... So, the open office was organised here at Haus der Statistik which is a dream itself. But a dream with a fantastic reality.. I would like to have this collective adventure keep on going, and grow organically. So there's a mix of fantasy, craziness, crazy ambition that we express collectively, but I also want other types of intelligences that are more grounded, closer to the granular aspects of all the relationality of our lives. I want that to be more and more part of our process. Because that's how something sustainable, organic will sustain in the future. That's really important. We're coming in with quite radical ideas but they need to be translated, converted into practices of different kinds, and that's what I envision for the future. A very multi-dimensional proliferating set of practices that share some sort of common financial or alter-financial understanding, so that we can federate when necessary for a common agenda, but otherwise most of the time developing these practices for their own sake. Economic Space Agency is a group of radical economists, software architects, finance theorists, game designers, critical thinkers and artists, coming together to reimagine the future of the economy.

His work articulates at the intersection of political philosophy, media and financial theory, contemporary art and cinema studies, with a marked interest for the speculative turn and the renewal of the question of the possible in contemporary thinking. He recently taught a seminar series in critical cryptoeconomics at the School of Disobedience at Volksbühne (Berlin) and is currently working on the creation of an MA program in Cryptoeconomics at the Global Center for Advanced Studies (GCAS). With Saloranta & De Vylder, he is developing The Sphere, a p2p community platform for self-organization in the performing arts, which is also part of ABC’s research projects. He is based in Berlin.

Programmed decentralised commons production, April 2017 Video: After Scarcity "A compelling economic sci-fi is mathematic disguised in a well-crafted storyline." SCREENING + DISCUSSION around "After Scarcity" (Bahar Noorizadeh, 2019) with Stefan Heidenreich and Economic Space Agency. Haus der Statistik, Monday 6th May, 19:30 to 22:00 pm  For many of us, computer technology seems almost inseparable from the corporate hypercapitalism of Silicon Valley. In "After Scarcity", Bahar Noorizadeh explores the soviet cybernetic past in search of our possible post-neoliberal future. "How might we use computation to get us out of our current state of digital feudalism and towards new possible utopias? After all, what would Vladimir "socialism is electricity plus statistic" Lenin have to say about blockchain?" This fascinating 30 min. sci-fi essay film will act as a free indirect entry point for a wider discussion around the disruptive potential of crypto- and cyber-economies. Including: Stefan Heidenreich's recent work around a non-money economy partly based on algorithmic matching formulas, and ECSA's general proposal to build a financial and computational infrastructure for post-hayekian economy. “Flying through swarms of floating dots outlining monasteries and city streets, After Scarcity flashes through decades of history to propose the ways contingent pasts can make fictive futures realer, showing us that digital socialism was inbred into the communist revolution and that computation doesn’t mean we’re condemned to today’s tyranny of total financialization.” Complementary readings Imagine there's no money: dialogue between Stefan Heidenreich & Geert Lovink  Geert Lovink: German media theorist Stefan Heidenreich has produced a concise proposal for a ‘non-monetary economy’. The book is entitled */Money/* and came out late 2017 with Merve Verlag in Berlin. Excerpts in English can be found at the Transmediale website. There we find the following description of Heidenreich’s project: ‘Given complex information infrastructures that have already been developed for documenting transactions, tying consumer habits to identities, and accurately predicting future exchanges, the substructure of a new kind of economy is now in place.’ March 2018 How Not to Network a Nation: The Uneasy History of the Soviet Internet. Peters, B. (2016) Cambridge: MIT Press. Red Plenty: Inside the Fifties’ Soviet Dream. Spufford, F. (2010). London: Faber & Faber. Review by Philip Cunliffe In the fifties, Soviet economic growth made it seem that the USSR might still win on the front of delivering material abundance to the masses: ‘Moscow would out-glitter Manhattan, and every Lada would be better engineered than a Porsche’... The heroes of Spufford’s Soviet dream are an entire generation of peasants brutally torn off the land and propelled on an astonishing ascent in the breakneck process of Soviet industrialisation.

Pando is a fully distributed and immutable VCS based on top of IPFS, aragonOS and the ethereum blockchain. Developed by the Ryhope Network’s team, it intends to become a community-driven standard. Its goal is to provide content creators, and mostly software developers, with a universal open-source versioning, cooperation and archiving layer. Pando has been crafted with the intent to be faithful to git’s philosophy while creating a bridge towards blockchain’s and ethereum’s rationale: a common good providing one more brick towards the decentralization of societies and the empowerment of human beings. That’s why we are building pando as an open source and standalone tool. No token, no ICO: just a medium to provide the blockchain community with a way to self-organize its development and its growth — though the Ryhope Network will use an homemade token to offer an income to free and open contents. Decentralized Autonomous Literary Organization: a decentralization of literature Pando Network, by inaugurating both a protocol and an interface capable of hosting and organizing collaborative creation, also opens great perspectives for literature. More broadly, should we not consider the possibilities opened up by the Ethereum blockchain, Aragon and Pando on the decentralization of literature, understood both as a historical mode for the valorization, diffusion and distribution of works, and as writing activities that govern these works?   CIRCLES A self-issuance based cryptocurrency basic income Circles is an electronic cryptocurrency with the aim to create and distribute a globally accessible Universal Basic Income. In traditional debt-based currencies one sells goods, borrows money, or invests working power to receive money. With Circles, one receives money unconditionally to engage with their community, creating value through offering goods or services. Cryptoeconomics Is Hard Aleksandr Bulkin  We are not used to designing economic structures. This is a wholly new territory. This article is an attempt to illustrate some very subtle problems people encounter on this road, often well after fixing them stops being easy or even possible. Economics is hard in general. The reason is that economics studies interactions in a very large group of people and people are not something you can model mathematically very well. But traditional economics works because it studies behaviors in a long-established system which changes very slowly. The way mainstream economic structures work is a product of years of research, governance, and social dynamics. In some sense you can say it was designed but a better way to look at it is that it was partly designed, partly discovered, and partly evolved on its own. So cryptoeconomics is harder, precisely because the economics of every single cryptoasset is designed from inception. This includes supply, inflation, rewards, fines, and so on. Cryptoeconomics of a token is a hybrid between rules programmatically implemented on a blockchain and the entire world of interactions real human beings have with it. Designing good rules necessarily entails understanding the way humans will interact with them. Talking token The full guide for understanding a token role in a token-enabled ecosystem  Today seeing a yet another blockchain-powered project promising to change how the old world works is not a news. None of such projects fail to emphasize that “token is an essential part of the ecosystem”. Yet, a rare project convincingly explains “why it needs a token in the first place.” Often times a seemingly simple answer leads to countless nuances and triggers a lot of consequences. A token is a tool that ignites and powers a “digital cooperative” around some activity. The incentives it carries determine whether the cooperative outlives its creators (the token issuers) or becomes a facade for speculative activities with no one giving a damn what the token is needed for. Measuring Value in the Commons-Based Ecosystem Bridging the Gap Between the Commons and the Market Primavera De Filippi and Samer Hassan (MoneyLab reader #1) Lovink, G., Tkacz, N. (eds.) The MoneyLab Reader. Institute of Network Cultures, University of Warwick, 2015  January 31, 2015 Commons-based peer-production (CBPP) constitutes today an important driver for innovation and cultural development, both online and offline. This led to the establishment of an alternative, Commons-based ecosystem,based on peer-production and collaboration of peers contributing to a common good. Yet, to the extent that this operates outside of the market economy, we cannot rely on traditional market mechanisms (such as pricing) to estimate the value of CBPP. We present here a system - which we will name Sabir - that can resolve some of the most recurrent problems encountered within CBPP communities. The Sabir system is composed of three layers that will help us: (1) Understanding the social value - as opposed to market value - of different CBPP communities, so as to compare them to one another. (2) Identifying the value generated by individuals contributing to the Commons and evaluating it through a common denominator of value. (3) Creating an interface between the market and the CBPP ecosystem so that the two can interact, and benefit from each other. Keywords: commons-based peer-production, alternative economies SELF-CAPITAL (1, 2, 3) Self-capital is an ongoing video series by Melanie Gilligan. Smart art tv series to learn to see and feel like Capital. First shown Sept. 2009. POPULAR UNREST Popular Unrest is a multi-episode drama set in a future much like the present. Here, however, all exchange transactions and social interactions are overseen by a system called ‘the Spirit’. A rash of unexplained killings have broken out across the globe. They often take place in public but witnesses never see an assailant. Just as mysteriously, groups of unrelated people are suddenly coming together everywhere, amassing new members rapidly. Unaccountably, they feel a deep and persistent sense of connection to one another. The film explores a world in which the self is reduced to physical biology, directly subject to the needs of capital. Hotels offer bed-warming servants with every room, people are fined for not preventing foreseeable illness, weight watching foods eat the digester from the inside and the unemployed repay their debt to society in physical energy. If on the one hand this suggests the complete domination of life by exchange value do the groupings offer a way out?

On Sunday, February 5, 1984, Judge Stephen G. Breyer of the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit addressed the Congressional Copyright and Technology Symposium, making five points about copyright law and policy. A transcript of his address is available here. Among other things, Breyer reflected on his influential article, "The Uneasy Case for Copyright: A Study of Copyright in Books, Photocopies, and Computer Programs" (1970), which he wrote as a law professor, as the Copyright Office was considering what became the Copyright Act of 1976. Breyer discussed the economic and moral justifications for copyright, the application of the economic justification, why it should apply differently in different contexts, how new technology requires rethinking of the scope of copyright protection, and why we should be wary of extending too much protection. In 1994, Breyer was appointed to the United States Supreme Court, where he has been the key dissenter in many copyright cases.Also of interest in relation to this speech might be:Barbara A. Ringer, The Demonology of Copyright, October 24, 1974.Stephen G. Breyer, The Uneasy Case for Copyright: A Look Back Across Four Decades, 79 Geo. Wash. L. Rev. 1635 (2011).Pamela Samuelson, The Uneasy Case for Software Copyrights Revisited, 79 Geo. Wash. L. Rev. 1746 (2010).I found Breyer's address especially interesting because of his brief and oblique reference to the story of St. Columcille and the "Battle of the Book," in which he references High King Diarmed's ruling, "To every cow its calf; to every book it's copy," as the origin of the moral theory of copyright. This observation reappears in Breyer's dissent in Golan v. Holder, 132 S. Ct. 873, 902 (2012). Breyer understandably relies on Augustine Birrell's 1889 account of the Columcille legend. A. Birrell, Seven Lectures on the Law and History of Copyright in Books 42 (1899). But in a forthcoming article, I will argue that the treatment of the "Battle of the Book" as the "first copyright litigation" reflects only a misunderstanding of what was intended as an allegorical claim to political legitimacy by a 16th century Irish king.

Dean Phillips, founder and owner of Longevity Industries, an International Director for SME, and a Production Enhancement Engineer at LINK Systems, dives into how artificial intelligence (AI) and computer programs like Watson will help manufacturers achieve five-year goals. Watson, he notes, is helping manufacturers avoid the “garbage in, garbage out” phenomena that happens when people ask the wrong questions. He also describes standout opportunities for AI program applications. “We’re trying to close the loop” with Big Data—without involving people all the time, he says. Less than 40 percent of U.S. manufactures in the U.S. have closed the loop, he said. And he weighs in on the workforce skills gap, the IIoT, system integration and predictive maintenance.

In this episode of the Data Show, I spoke with Fabian Yamaguchi, chief scientist at ShiftLeft. His 2015 Ph.D. dissertation sketched out how the combination of static analysis, graph mining, and machine learning, can be used to develop tools to augment security analysts. In a recent post, I argued for machine learning tools to augment […]

MJS 028 Zach Kessin In this episode we have another JavaScript Story, this time our guest is Zach Kessin. Zach is a Developer and consultant. On the server side he works with Erlang and Elixir. On the front end he works on Elm. He also also written a few books for O’Reilly and a video course for Manning available sometime in the fall. He was a guest on episode 57 and is here with us today to tell us his story. Stay tuned! [2:48] How did you get into programming. Zack tells the story about how when he was 7 he asked his mother for a computer. She agreed that if he paid for half of it somehow, then she would help him get it. He Gathered his half by calling relatives and gathering funds. His mom taught him Basic and Logo. He also learned Pascal. While in University he picked up the book Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs and loved it. He talks about remembering writing a HTML forum but not knowing how to submit entries. After college he started working. [4:38] Resources then vs now. Charles adds that if you’re tenacious enough to call your family members to find funding to buy a computer to learn, then you probably have the drive it takes to be a programmer. Charles and Zack talk about how in the 80s it was rare to have access to a computer, and now homes have multiple computers throughout. The resources are more readily available now with the internet. If you’re looking to get into development, there are plenty of great resources. [7:45] How did you get into JavaScript and Erlang? Zach starts explaining by telling how he get into JavaScript before the internet really existed. His first JavaScript program exposure was a loan calculator at a bank. Early on the only thing you could do was validate forms, but over time it grew. He started working for a company writing php. He felt like it wasn’t as functional or elegant as he was hoping for. He found various languages and landed on Erlang. Erland was designed to work for programming telephone switches. Due to phone services nature, It handles high scale, high reliability, has to be upgraded on the fly, etc. Zach talks about how server programming looks very similar to phone line programming. Zach adds that a few years ago he wanted work on some front end and after looking around finally he learned about Elm. He says that he is always looking for what’s new and useful. [14:26] Programming Languages Change the Way We Think Charles points out that it’s very interesting out about how functional programming has played out. He mentions that many JavaScript programmers use functional style programming to help with speed or efficiency. He adds that a fully functional programming language is very interesting and could be helpful. Zach talks about how learning new languages helps adjust the way we think. [16:45] How have you contributed to the development community? Charles starts off with mentioning Zach’s podcast that was called Mostly Erlang. Zach adds that he has wrote two books for O’ Reilly, one on HTML5 and Erlang. He has done some blogging and is creating a video course called Startup Elm. He mentions that he spends most of his time teaching. He admires people who write libraries and sustains them over years, but it isn’t something he sees himself getting into. He adds that having the libraries are useless unless you have someone to communicate about it and teach it. Charles mentions that contributions come in various ways and the community needs those sort of teachers. Zach mentions that he often speaks at conferences and meet ups. Public speaking can be a great way to progress your career. Charles brings up the idea of “Sweeping the dojo floor”. He was introduced to this idea by Dave Hoover. Sweeping the dojo floor means that you’ve got enough experience to talk about the topic, but maybe not fully contribute and so you do things like document code, or write articles and outreach for the topic. Talks can lead to work. You can easily find research papers and do talks on that. Zach adds that sometimes in a community, you see the same speakers over and over and new speakers are needed. Zach also mentions that there are plenty of opportunities to do talks in something other than english. [26:36] What are you working on now? Zach talks about the list of things he is working on. Starting with Startup Elm and it’s live course that will be happening in October. He is also working on a SaSS product for Instagram marketers called SquareTarget. He adds that he has a day job as well. Picks Zach Intrepid Large Format Camera Kickstarter Charles Toast Masters Zapier Javascriptjabber.com/slack

Join us as we explore Clojure, the robust, practical and fast programming language. Kenneth, Kevin & Len talk to Robert Stuttaford (@RobStuttaford), co-founder and CTO of Cognician, about the Clojure programming language and his experience using it for the last few years. We discuss the language itself as well as some tools. We sing the praises of Rich Hickey, even if it just for his great talks, and stroll around the ecosystem including the obligatory stop at Datomic. Robert really did a great job of guiding us through the landscape and we're very excited about Clojure after this call. We'll definitely have Robert back in the future to cover Datomic and other parts of Clojure we didn't cover. Quick aside, the conversation was very organic and we skipped the formal introductions, and we had a few small technical snags with the recording, but the content is still great and we hope you enjoy listening as much as we did recording.

When we run our own businesses and don't have a "boss" to answer to, it can be easy to fall back into old habits of goofing off. It's easy to fall back into the habit of filling up time because when you worked at your "day job", the objective was to fill up 8 hours a day. Today, we're going to talk about getting all that clutter that we're used to from a day job out of the way. Quick Computer Programs Everyone Can Use to Improve Their Productivity Online Stopwatch: Use this to time yourself doing a task so that you truly commit to getting it done in a certain amount of time, i.e. knock out a blog post in 10 minutes instead of thinking about it for an hour. Camtasia: This software can record everything you're doing online. This is excellent software for recording tutorials, software walk-through demo's, etc. You can simultaneously record your processes as well as your spoken audio. We'll talk more in depth regarding Camtasia a little later in the episode. Google Calendar: This is free and you already have it if you have a Gmail account. If you don't, you can just go to www.google.com/calendar to get it. It's great because you can synchronize it to your iPhone and iPad as well as share it with other users, such as spouses and business partners. It will send you popups/emails for upcoming appointments. Don't schedule EVERYTHING you do on your calendar-you'll just end up creating a glorified to-do list. Use it for essential appointments, such as meetings and webinars, etc. Don't forget to check out Robert's Book, 100 Time Savers for more useful advice. Essential Software/Programs for Internet Marketers Camtasia Studio (again): You can record a full video and save that but also have the option of saving just the audio portion. You could use the audio for doing something like a podcast. You can even record tutorial videos or "helper videos" just for yourself. If Robert has a particular process he has to go through, that he doesn't want to forget, he can record the entire process and then post that video to YouTube. Some examples would be how to convert a .wav audio file to an MP3 file: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o4Z7_47zToA ... Or how to convert any graphics file into a JPEG thumbnail: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hy75zatrDcQ ... Or how to upload a book to CreateSpace: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_wRgqMasgk Now that you have this process, you don't have to write it down on a piece of paper or make extensive notes. Your entire tutorial is accessible anywhere you can access internet to get to YouTube. Access Robert's video tutorials at his YouTube channel. Be sure to subscribe too. GoToWebinar: Use this software for setting up all of your webinars. WordPress Most all other things that Robert needs to accomplish in his business can be taken care of through WordPress and various WordPress plugins. He uses a plugin called Paper Template to create landing pages, opt-in pages, download pages, thank you pages, etc. He uses a WordPress plugin called Member Genius to take payments in combination with PayPal. Then, he uses a plugin called Backup Creator to back up his WordPress sites and if you back it up to another place (i.e. your hard drive, etc.), you've now cloned that site and you can use it over and over (with editing) to produce multiple sites. These are all plugin's that Robert has created and you can get all of them in one package by joining Income Machine today. Additional Software/Programs You'll Find Useful GoodSync: Developed by the same creators of RoboForm, it allows you to synchronize your folders with FTP websites, Dropbox or Amazon S3 buckets. Let's look at this scenario: When you record a video that you want to put online (like your membership site), first you have to record it, then you have to edit it, then you need to produce it and save it to a folder on your computer, then you would have to open up an FTP program (like FileZilla), then you have to drag the file over and wait for i...

WHY LIFE IS LIKE A SET OF COMPUTER PROGRAMS with PAUL MORRIS Are we programmed, along with every other living organism, by the great coder in the sky? By coder I mean one who programs computers. I’m not just discussing people and animals, I’m including plants as well.  And not just application programs, currently known as “Aps,” but operating systems and utilities. I'll explain all this during the show. With 25 years of professional IT experience, 40 years of studying human behavior and a strong foundation in spirituality and science, I fell quite comfortable in giving this subject a go.

In this episode, Ben Orenstein is joined by Michael Klett, Co-founder and tech lead of Chargify. Ben and Michael discuss the evolution of Chargify and bumps along the way, underwear subscriptions, Michael’s transition from hardware to software, negativity in the Rails community, slow tests, and much more. Chargify Manpacks Bryan Helmcamp’s blog on 7 ways to refactor Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs @tenderlove’s keynote at railsconf Follow @thoughtbot, @r00k, and @moklett on twitter.

Ben Orenstein is joined by Joe Ferris and Mike Burns. They start off with some recommendations for awesome programming books and then dive right in to questions about not following "Tell don't ask" in the view, how MVC and the Single Responsibility Principle may be at odds with "Tell don't ask" in the view, and what a more object oriented approach may look like. They also discuss "Class-oriented programming", what it is, why it is bad, how Rails does it, and how to avoid it. They take a quick trip through Mike's experiments in Ruby and Smalltalk in creating his own programming language. The three codecateers then take on the really important topic of method order and code organization, and finally they reflect on how their code has changed over the years, how no solution is foolproof, and how to move to the next level as a programmer. These topics and more, in this installment of the GIANT ROBOTS SMASHING INTO OTHER GIANT ROBOTS podcast!

Here's the link to the pledgie where you can help me get to RubyConf. This week's episode is an interview with Corey Haines. He's pretty well known as the Software Journeyman and his coding tours where he traded time pairing on code for room and board. You can keep up with him at http://coreyhaines.com. You can also check out the following links for other things he's doing: http://www.katacasts.com/ http://www.coderetreat.com/ Here's a link to the Software Craftsmanship Manifesto which is tied a lot to the discussion we had on Software Craftsmanship. Corey mentioned the Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs – 2nd Edition (MIT Electrical Engineering and Computer Science) book, which is a mind-blowing set of instruction and exercises for computer programmers. We also discussed pairing in relation to the code retreats. Corey mentioned the paper by Arlo Belshee called “Promiscuous Pairing and the Beginner's Mind” You can reach Corey on twitter as @coreyhaines and by email at coreyhaines@gmail.com Finally, checkout the latest news on the XP Universe conference.
