Building high-growth data businesses with Lillian Pearson (Ep. 149)

Is there a gap between life sciences and data science? What's the situation when it comes to interdisciplinary research? In this episode I am with Laura Harris, Director of Training for the Institute of Cyber-Enabled Research (ICER) at Michigan State University (MSU), and we try to answer some of those questions.   You can contact Laura at training@msu.edu or on LinkedIn

Pandas vs Rust (Ep. 144)

In plain English, concurrent and parallel are synonyms. Not for a CPU. And definitely not for programmers. In this episode I summarize the ways to parallelize on different architectures and operating systems.
