    Hello, Habr! In addition to creating practical programming courses, we at Hexlet also conduct webinars and open lectures , write articles and translations, and publish daily digests of interesting materials in social networks. networks.


    We recently launched a new project - the computer science podcast of the same name. Thoughts, reasoning and study of the ideas of computer science, mathematics and programming. The leader is your humble servant. So far, 3 issues have been released, per week. The duration of each is about 30 minutes.


    1. Tools and artificial stupid intelligence


    The first issue was devoted to development tools, a glut of frameworks, an unfulfilled promise of the computer age, and artificial intelligence that behaves like an unpleasant, unreliable person.
