We put Yawar on the spot.
We talk about the programming landscape - where and why we coding is needed.
We look discuss top languages to learn on your tech journey.
We discuss the impact of AI on coding.

What makes different programming languages successful and what do they accomplish. What industries and typical use cases.
Listener should walk away with understanding of what languages to learn for their goals (e.g. data science).
What will coding do → what language
Front-end and design -
back-end and performance
application, apis’s, environments and infrastructure
