Charles Max Wood started podcasting because it sounded fun and because he wanted to talk about technology. He learned pretty quickly that it got him access to people who understood the things he wanted to learn. The reasons changed over the years, as Charles explains before he talks about the big payoff he gets now from doing the podcasts.
Francois Bertrand is the author of a tool that builds in powerful data visualization tools for datasets that allow data scientists and machine learning engineers to look at their data and analyze various qualities that they have. This could allow engineers to make qualitative calls regarding the data they use to train their models or evaluate the results they get from models after the fact. Francois explains how he built it and how to use it for these types of uses.
Jason Weimann started out as an enthusiast of the Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game, Everquest. After becoming a software developer and building a collaborative community playing the game, learn how he used his connections to get a job working for the company that made the game, even if it wasn't a job working as a game developer and how that led to a career working on one of the most popular online games of the time.
Ather Fawaz joins the discussion to walk us through the world of qubits, quantum computers, machine learning algortithms, and what quantum computer means for machine learning. He explains the basics of quantum computer and who the major players are in the space and then explains some of the advancements people are making by scheduling time on their quantum computers.
Chuck outlines how he's used his podcasts to find mentors to continue his learning journey over 12 years of podcasting. Some mentors have been long lived relationships while others have lasted only a few months or even days. This episode shares Chuck's experience learning from the top people in the development community as a programmer and podcaster.
