In this episode we dive into Isabelle, the interactive theorem prover based on Higher Order Logic directly from someone who spent quite some time hacking on its internals.

Me and Daniel also talk about Mizar, Isar, the seL4, and how it is formalized.

Torwards the end of the episode we also talk a little about his current work on the binary analysis of Aarch32 Arm Archtecture at Galois.

In this episode we interview Zeina Migeed, a PhD Student at University of

She Researches Gradual Types and had a paper published at POPL'20 named "What is

As the name of the episode suggests, I'll be asking her all the dumb questions

In this episode we interview Yves Bertot and we talk about the history behind his contribution with Pierre Castéran on writing Coq’Art. What is Yves’ role in the Coq Team, how the team works and what are the sort of contributions they accept.

A Genereic Approach to Building User Interfaces for Theorem Provers

In this episode we host Eric Bond to go through some real cool projects happening in the PL World and some of the companies behind them.

We discuss some technical differences between the major interactive theorem provers out there, some of their most popular projects, and a few companies that work in the realm.

Eric Bond works at 47 degrees, a consulting company on Functional Programming Languages, specially on Scala and Haskell. You can find Eric @ericbond10 on Twitter.

During the episode we mention PL Talks and the Midlands Graduate School in the Foundations of Computing Science 2021.

In this episode we host Dan Zheng, an alumni of Purdue University that now works at Google at real cool projects that relates ML and PL.

We chat about how was his transition from undergrad to such a huge company like Google. We talk about cool languages such as Lantern, LLVM, LMS, Julia, Rust, Racket, Scala. How does ML and PL can be used to enhance each other. And towards the end we shift our attention to mental health, both in the academia and in the industry.

In this episode we host Rajan Walia and John Sarracino. Rajan is a last year PhD Student from Indiana University, working under Sam Tobin-Hochstadt. And John is a Postdoc working with Greg Morriset at Cornell University.

We talk about Grad School life, how academia life looks like, pressure to publish, work-life balance, industry vs academia, and much more!
