A new very interesting show from Channel9 is “Behind the Code”. The idea is to bring in one of the code heros and start talking about his life in general, not only in work, and, give him some hard questions that come behind some easier questions at the beginning.
The first episode hosts (as you should expect) Anders Hejlsberg (the great guy behind C# and now LINQ) in a very interesting talk about his whole life and family. They brought his ex-development manager in Borlland, and showed short clips of other Microsoft gurus telling what they think of him.
The funniest thing was when he was asked to draw his data structure of choice (as a tradition of the show), he said, “I didn't know this was going to be geeky!”. What? yeah, it was the circular linked list indeed.
A great hour full of fun and interesting facts is that you spend on this show. Don't miss it ;).
