Podcasts:
This show covers C++, a general-purpose programming language. News: Visualizing code to fail faster, the future of the used game market, Prince of Persia source code found. The tools of the biweek are sfxr and DC universe online.
This show covers Dart, a client-side browser alternative to javascript. Dart currently only runs in Chrome, but dart code can be compiled to javascript and then run in any browser. News: Raspberry Pi, California allows autonomous cars, Stanford online courses. The tools of the biweek are Disk Usage Programs (WinDirStat, Disk usage Analyzer, and Disk Inventory X), and Spelunky.

This show covers Lisp, one of the first functional langauge that is often used for academic purposes, but also has a place in industry. The episode talks about Cuda, how to write a Roguelike, becoming a good programming, and DOS games on Chrome. The tools of the biweek are Google Native Client (NaCl), a way to run native C/C++ code in a browser, and Handbrake, a way to make copies of your video DVDs.

This show covers Javascript, the only client-side scripting language built into most modern browsers. The episode talks about Patrick's move to Silicon Valley, Codecademy, The HP Touchpad Fire sale, and Minecraft's Notch challenging Bethesda to Quake 3. The tools of the biweek are Low-Level Virtual Machine (LLVM), an open source virtual machine and suite of compilers that compile and run code from many languages. and Hamachi, a free virtual private networking solution.

This show covers HyperText Markup Language (HTML) and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), two of the three languages that make up most client-side Internet programming. The episode talks about the Humble Indie Bundle 3, Linux Kernel reaching 3.0, and the end of manned space flight program. The tools of the biweek are Freemind, an open source brainstorming assistant, and Picasa, a free photo editing and hosting service.

This show covers Assembly, the lowest level language used to program a computer. This episode talks about the amount of traffic Netflix is generating, how many ebooks Amazon now sells, Apple not standing up for its developers, how young is too young for facebook, working on open source projects, and a new tool called Hype. The tools of the day are FileZilla, a cross platform ftp client, and PuTTY, a Windows SSH tool.
