Into the Well of Formal Verifications

  • Summary

  • This week Mike and Erik were trying to understand the arena of formal verification: what are these tools? Where do they come from? How do they work? Can we categorize them?

    There's a ton of stuff to talk about in this area and we're just learning the things, so we made an attempt here to wade in and figure stuff out!

    We also mentioned on this episode that there are some new ways to reach out to us (in addition to our email address), but they are:

    - Bluesky account: https://bsky.app/profile/picturemecoding.bsky.social
    - Threadless store (in case you want a Picture Me Coding coffee mug or stickers!): https://picturemecoding.threadless.com/
    - Existing email address: podcast@picturemecoding.com
