Having the opportunity to preview builds is one of the cornerstones of the Windows Insider Program. We have discussed many aspects of how a build makes its way externally to Insiders, beginning with new code being written, continuing to the build “snap” (aka: compiling the build), to media availability, to flighting, and of course the feedback process that continues the cycle of development. Joining us this episode is Roger Johnson, Windows Software Engineer to talk about build validation and more. Click here for transcript of this episode.

A Dynamic Duo for the Ages

Everything we thought we knew about work—where we do it, when we do it, how we do it—has been turned on its head. Where is it all going, and is there a map to get us there? WorkLab is a new podcast from Microsoft that taps into data and research to guide you on the road ahead. Leaders and scientists share the company’s findings, and we’ll hear stories about how people and organizations are being transformed at this radical moment. Join host Elise Hu as we tap into even more data and research to guide you on the road ahead. The first season we’ll be focusing on hybrid work, and how we can ensure that workplaces aren’t defined by where you gather, but by how you feel included. The show launches on September 8. Follow the show at microsoft.com/worklab.

Making Technology Accessible

Have you ever wondered what it's like to intern at Microsoft? In this month's episode of the Windows Insider podcast, we look at the intern experience from two perspectives. First, we sit down with Lauren Rosenberg, a double-major in computer science and astrophysics, to learn what it's like being part of the Cloud and Enterprise team. Lauren was a Windows Insider in the fast ring before starting university, and the program helped propel her interest in working for Microsoft. We also talk to the Windows Insider engineering team's own intern, Marissa Zhang. Marissa shares her behind-the-scenes perspective of the program and what she's learned from the global community of Insiders.
