Podcast Episode 317: Quantum Diamonds, Public Research, and Transitioning Cobol into Artificial Intelligence

Fresh Take:

Hey there! Got a juicy roundup from our cool cats Elliot and Al on this week's podcast. They loosened their typing fingers to gab about some mind-blowing tales they've been drooling over lately. Let's dive in, shall we?

In an unconventional game of cat and mouse, a listener took the reins and submitted the sound for our "What's This Sound" competition. Our boys were left scratching their heads. Can you beat them at their own game? If so, you could win yourself a flashy our website Podcast T-shirt.

The hacking world had Elliot and Al all worked up, discussing their hopes for the pet hacking contest, quantum diamonds (yes, seriously), spectrometers, and an array of science projects.

The conversation then shifted gears to talk about a mini robot, a digital space mouse (not a real rodent, don't worry), and even an old-school photophone that allowed Alexander Graham Bell to channel the sun like a string on a paper cup telephone. Exciting, right?

As the podcast neared its end, things heated up with a lively chat about computer programming, from COBOL to Vibe. Are you ready to hand your work over to AI? Maybe if your job is to sort through piles of old COBOL code.

Ever wondered if you could read along? The links are below. Don't forget to drop your brainstorms for AI-generated Vibe limericks or COBOL war stories in the comments!
