Episode 15 - UCSD Spits on Spritz, MapReduce for Rubes, BASIC is 50, Brain Rules

from Informatonauts Hosted by Informatonauts

Nikhil runs for knowledge. IBM studies people. Study shows Spritz is terrible for comprehension, (but good for forgetting things, we think). Mapreduce uses a mafia structure (masters, mappers, groupers, reducers). A fondness for BASIC and variables named A1. You don’t need to learn to program. Yes, really. Nick mixes all the metaphors, in a pool.
