286 - Darwin, Science and Programming with Kate Holterhoff
In this episode I talk with Kate Holterhoff, senior analyst at RedMonk, about her PhD research on Darwin's methods, speculation in science, and how 19th century evolutionary thinking influenced literature. We discuss epistemology, conjecture and criticism, and how these ideas connect to programming. Links: RedMonkSpeculation and the Darwinian Method in British Romance Fiction, 1859-1914Nonsense Monthly
