Episode description

In todays episode we get to talk with a group of people that are each doing amazing things in the computer programming space as it relates to structural engineering and sharing their work in an open source platform. Listen in to learn about Python, open source, a bit of AI, and much more. You may find, like I did, that understanding the programs we use at a deeper level will absolutely make us better in our field, and it's pretty dang fun to learn as well.
