Stephen Wolfram answers questions from his viewers about the history of science and technology as part of an unscripted livestream series, also available on YouTube here: https://wolfr.am/youtube-sw-qa
Questions include: What is the history of dimensional regularization and zeta regularization? How are they related to renormalization? - When and how was the first compiler made? What language was it for, and what language was it written in? - Can you talk about the history of computer graphics standards and libraries, such as OpenGL etc.? - Larry Sanger - HP 9800s were awesome. They had two overlap video memories. One was ASCII character–based, and the other was HP plotter language controlled. They both showed up on the screen. Handy/versatile.
