<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Tomas Petricek is a lecturer at the University of Kent and a partner at fsharpWorks. He believes that the most fundamental work is not the one solving hard problems, but the one that offers new ways of thinking. He follows this belief in his academic research on programming systems and the history and philosophy of computing, but also in his writing on functional programming and in his F# training and consulting.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Before joining Kent, Tomas did a Ph.D. on context-aware computations at the University of Cambridge, worked on F# tools in Microsoft Research, and built novel tools for data exploration at The Alan Turing Institute.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Topics of Discussion:</strong></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">[4:19] The Turing Institute, and a little bit more about Alan Turing.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">[6:01] How can we distill 70 years into something understandable in a reasonable period?</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">[8:52] What were the early cultures of programming?</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">[14:00] Fortran programming and how ALGOL was designed by a sort of more academic crowd as a universal programming language.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">[15:00] We hear some well wishes from listeners and past guests for the 200th episode!
