Sophie Wilson designed the Acorn Micro-Computer, the BBC BASIC programming language, and the ARM (Acorn RISC Machine) processor instruction set. Her engineering literally surrounds us every day. This is an extra-special edition of the Cross Cutting Concerns podcast! Once I got Sophie on the line, I didn't want to hang up, so the episode is a bit longer than my normal episode length. Also, the recording was done over a regular phone line instead of a VoIP line, so you will notice that in Sophie's audio.

Want to be on the next episode? You can! All you need is the willingness to talk about something technical.

Theme music is "Crosscutting Concerns" by The Dirty Truckers, check out their music on Amazon or iTunes.
