🎤️ Bill Gates
Hello Hello!
🤣 source: Wandering Wagars
Today I bring to you another event, an interview, and work opportunities for students.
Microsoft Build is an annual conference event held by Microsoft, aimed at software engineers and web developers using Windows, Microsoft Azure and other Microsoft technologies. First held in 2011, it serves as a successor for Microsoft's previous developer events.
It will be happening online on May 23-24, 2023.
Get ready to make your mark in this new era of AI. Be there as Microsoft leaders share exciting announcements and reveal the latest tech that will launch the next wave of developer innovation.
Lots of sessions for all areas of interest. Of course, AI will be a big component.
🎤️ As much as people love to proclaim how innovative and visionary Steve Jobs was, I am a fan boy of Bill Gates. Microsoft made a more practical difference in my life than Apple will ever make.
In the end, why we have to rank them? We don't.
Check this great, and recent, interview with Bill Gates talking about AI and many other topics.
Introducing Riipen
👔 Riipen is a technology platform that facilitates experiential learning opportunities by connecting students with industry partners (i.e. local companies, community organizations, government agencies, NGOs) through course assignments or competitions designed by instructors.This is their formal definition. To be honest I don't know much about them, but I found their concept interesting (and similar to something I was working on a few years ago)
Here is a video description. Maybe it would be worth to explore a bit more.
My personal update:
🎓 This coming week I'll be back in class. Welcome to my summer students of COMP123!
✈️ Next Saturday I will be departing to Brazil. As a result, I won't be publishing a newsletter that weekend. But I will be publishing on the weekends after, once I'm there.
🌞 Enjoy the beautiful weather that we are having in Toronto!
