Yuri is a logician, computer scientist and inventor of abstract state machines. He currently works at Microsoft Research (he's a member of Wolfram Schulte's RiSE team).

This is the second part in a series of lectures exploring the fundamental logic-recipe powering all that we do as software engineers and computer scientists—the algorithm. What is an algorithm? You may be surprised to learn that this is not a simple question. Nonetheless, in this video, Yuri presents an answer—one that is perhaps somewhat controversial in nature—based on his own research and philosophy.

Thank you, Yuri, for taking the time to share your extensive knowledge and gentle, kind spirit with Niner Nation. We all really appreciate it! Thanks, too, to Wes Dyer and Bart De Smet for being our live audience for this lecture and asking great questions!
