This is an interview with Brian Beckman. He works at Microsoft in research.

He has worked in creating military simulations and in cosmology.

The first 20 min or so of the interview is non-programming specific and very interesting.

Have you ever wondered who is the biggest risk in credit card fraud and why credit card transactions are so insecure? Some answers here. (And they are depressing.)

The second half is pretty interesting to anybody with a bit of programming knowledge.
