LI_S02E32_FLOSS_in_the_real_estate_biz
In this episode, Martin and Chris talk about the use of FLOSS in real estate. Chris laments his big landowner woes which he got into after inheriting a zoo of different pieces of real estate some time ago. And how he solved this using FLOSS components that put sense into half-baked billing information coming from property management companies and how a neural net was recruited to help along the way. Even if you're not insane but just curious about how it's done you don't want to miss this episode. Plus bonus content about what happened to format of the show and why that was.

LI_S02E31_Talking_Kotlin
In this episode Martin and Chris host Hadi Hariri and Sebastian Aigner from Jetbrains to talk about Kotlin, IDEs, world domination and many other topics. Such as politics (maybe). And protein bars and their rise to fame in Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan. And how Google was actually kidnapped. Confused? You should be. But don't miss this episode for the resolution of all this, fun on Google and money, programming languages and more. Much more.

LI_S02E30_The_Five_Year_Plan_again
In this anniversary episode our two ageing heroes recount the last five years of the Inlaws and the progress of the famous five year plan (as avid listeners will probably recall from earlier anniversary episodes - if you can't, there's always the back-catalogue). Plus some more NoSQL/Cache Software Bashing. In case you're interested...

LI_S02E29_The_Free_Software_Foundation
In this episode the Inlaws host Zoë Kooyman and Greg Farough from the Free Software Foundation (FSF), one of the backbones of the FLOSS movement. Home to many primordial projects including the GNU congregation of free software such as Emacs and its compiler collection, the FSF can look back on forty years of shaping the FLOSS ecosystem in a way that few other organisations have managed to achieve. So if you wanted to know why Emacs is actually an operating system rather than just an editor, what the FSF really is beyond Richard M. Stallman and what's in store for the FSF, then you don't want to miss this episode! Plus bonus content: the low-down on Dutch street organs and a really well-kept Dutch secret (woa!). Ya REALLY dunt wanna miss tis! :-)

LI_S02E28_A_kernel_slightly_rusty
This episode shines some light on a new (?) technology entering the Linux kernel. Traditionally the Linux has been programmed using C, a programming language almost as old as our two hosts, and assembler for the machine-dependent parts which cannot be done in C. A few years back a couple of kernel devs started to explore the possibility of using a modern, much safer system programming language by the name of Rust (as featured quite a few times on this podcast in the past - check out the back catalog for the details). Even if you're not a kernel dev check out the episode if you're interested in kernel programming or the use of Rust in system programming in general.
