Everything Everywhere Daily - Open Source Software

Computer software seems to be everywhere. No matter what kind of computer you use or where you use it, all computers use software. 


That is the entire point of a computer. 


However, not all software is the same. There are actually enormous differences between software applications. Not just what they do, but how they were written, the business models behind them, the legal licenses that cover them, and the philosophy behind them. 


Learn more about free and open source software, what it is, and how it works on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - Authors of two new novels draw inspiration from history in wildly different ways

Today on the show, we hear from authors who were inspired by history in wildly different ways. First, when Emma Donoghue encountered a famous photo of the 1895 Montparnasse derailment, she says she couldn't believe no one had written a novel about it. Donoghue's The Paris Express imagines what life was like for passengers on the old-fashioned steam locomotive. In today's episode, she talks with NPR's Steve Inskeep about the extensive historical research she conducted in order to write the book. Then, Bob the Drag Queen has called Harriet Tubman "the first Black superhero." In Bob's debut novel Harriet Tubman: Live in Concert, Tubman returns to continue her work as an abolitionist through hip-hop. In today's episode, Bob speaks with NPR's Ayesha Rascoe about the idea of freedom, Tubman's military service, and a recent appearance on The Traitors.
