Pioneers: Experts gather to talk about the impact of Richard Hamming

A mathematician by training, Richard Hamming contributed significantly to the computer science and telecommunications industries. Of his work in information theory, digital filters and numerical methods, the most widely known is the Hamming codes — a family of formulas that allowed computers to detect and correct their own errors. This work would go on to be foundational for computers and communications, being used in modems, embedded processors, satellites, and more.   For more episodes of Pioneers, including photos and transcripts, please visit: https://www.notion.so/blog/topic/pioneers​  Produced by Notion: http://www.twitter.com/NotionHQ​ Hosted by Devon Zuegel: https://twitter.com/DevonZuegel​ Audio by This Land Films: https://etfilmhome.com/
