English Edition: with my guests Bernd Ulmann and Daniel Thuerck I am looking at the fascinating world of analog computers. Far from being "yesterday's" machines, there is a lot of interest in building analog devices. So what are they, what are they used for, and how do you work with them.

English Edition: making software, digital data and other artefacts count in research evaluations has always been a challenge. But there are plenty of people and initiatives like the https://hidden-ref.org in the UK who want to change research culture. And I talked to three people who are working in this field to find out what the challenges are and what they do to make software and digital technologies count (more): Simon Hettrick (Uni Southampton), Jack Atkinson (Uni Cambridge) and Will Swansborough-Aston (Uni Exeter).

Deutsche Ausgabe: Anfang September 2025 wurde der neue Hochleistungsrechner Jupiter in Betrieb genommen, mit viel Fanfaren und Prominenz. Zurecht, denn Jupiter ist der schnellste Rechner in Europa. Aber wie kriegt man so eine Maschine am Laufen? Und wie kann man sie instand halten. Das habe ich mit meinen Gästen Andreas Herten und Benedikt von St Vieth vom Forschungszentrum Jülich diskutiert. 
Das ist die letzte Folge der 10. Serie von Code for Thought. Und es geht am 3. Februar 2026 wieder mit der 11. Serie weiter (einschließlich deutschsprachiger Folgen). Alles Gute für die Feiertage und 2026!
