- deep conversations on technology’s meaning and messages
I love how Henry Zhou, the main host, gets straight to the point. No intro. No ads. No music. Just intellectually-dense organic conversations on various tech topics from a Christian perspective. Henry is a software developer in the open-source community and he sees open-source as an appropriate outflow of Christian generosity. Very cool. Nadia Eghbal is a great co-host, though she’s not always available.
