  • Claude Shannon: A Mind at Play Interview with Authors Rob Goodman & Jimmy Soni
    Claude Shannon made our modern digital world possible. He wrote a landmark paper called "The Mathematical Theory of Communication" which gave birth to computer networks, cell phones, compact discs, digital recording and video. It also lent huge insights into genetics and biology. Rob Goodman & Jimmy Soni have written the first full biography of Claude Shannon and it’s great. It’s called "A Mind at Play: How Claude Shannon Invented the Information Age". In this video, we discuss the quirky world of one of the 20th Century's great geniuses.

  • Evolution 2.0: Highly Abridged - The Road To Code
    What we know about codes has sweeping implications for not only science but philosophy and religion as well. We define terms and make clear who should read this book, and who will likely be too offended to bother reading it.

  • Evolution 2.0: Highly Abridged - Ch#2 Evolution: Truth Or Fiction
    Because I’m an Electrical Engineer, I decided to let science decide this for me: Does nature really point us to atheism? Or does science favor faith? Darwinian theory is consistently challenged by doctors and engineers. Does that mean the engineers know something the biologists don’t? Or do the biologists know something the engineers don’t know? I resolved to find out. And I also encountered strong evidence for an evolutionary history of the earth.

  • Evolution 2.0: Highly Abridged - Ch#4 Pity The Fruit Fly: Testing Randomness
    100 years ago, biologists discovered they could generate DNA mutations with radiation, which was easy to do. They were excited because they believed they could now accelerate evolution. They tried experiments with fruit flies for decades. They learned a great deal about which genes perform certain functions… but as far as generating evolutionary events, those experiments were a total failure. There had to be something more to evolution that we didn’t understand.

  • Evolution 2.0: Highly Abridged - Ch#5 Eureka! Information. Theory!
    I had a huge epiphany when I realized that everything I knew about 1s and 0s as a communication engineer applied to DNA. This sliced through a LOT of nonsense a lot of people were spouting about evolution. It also indicated who I could safely listen to and what I was likely to find as I dug deeper.
