Stephen Wolfram answers questions from his viewers about business, innovation, and managing life as part of an unscripted livestream series, also available on YouTube here: https://wolfr.am/youtube-sw-business-qa

Questions include: If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be? Any business/scientific reason why that place? - University vs. experience in programming and computer science: which one is more valuable? - How do you manage technical debt? - What advantages come from using Wolfram Language as in-house code? - How do you manage technical debt in Java codebases? - Good afternoon, Dr. Wolfram. How do you cope with the stress of releasing new products? As it is very hard to judge the success beforehand, do you have any techniques to reduce that stress? - If you were never allowed to use Wolfram Language, what would you use? - Do you find that innovation is largely driven from within, or is it largely external (e.g. your users push you for more features)? - How does Stephen see the current co-creation space and how can we bring the benefits to smaller businesses with smaller budgets? - What is the best way to fund a research project? - Would you always have to artificially describe some midterm future application of your research to sell a business plan to some investors?
