Microsoft IntelliMouse Explorer – DTNS 4839
Brad and Will take a closer look at Microsoft’s IntelliMouse Explorer. These days it’s hard to remember that it was Microsoft who banished the infernal ball and introduced the optical mouse to the mainstream, so we head back to 1999 and discuss what mice were like beforehand, how mechanical and optical sensors work, debate PS/2 versus USB, make an argument that the whole PC gaming accessory ecosystem owes its existence to this product, and more.
Starring Brad Shoemaker, Will Smith
You can follow Brad and Will on their podcast “Brad & Will Made a Tech Pod”

Behind the Data – DTNS 4835
Welcome to “Behind The Data”. We all know that data is all around us — it powers every algorithm, predictive model, and AI tool that is revolutionizing our lives. But where does it come from? Who collected it? How do we know if it’s any good? For every dataset shaping our lives, there is a person or team making impactful decisions about what to track and how to track it that we are barely talking about. In this show we go behind the data to understand the stories and incentives behind how all this data came to be, why it matters for our lives, and how we can play a role in shaping it going forward.
Starring Andrea Jones-Rooy, Dhrumil Mehta
