## Feedback

- Don't have two of the same or similar talks one after the other
- Less presentations, more interactivity
- Better if speakers come in to the space in person
- Talks where people intro us to new/different languages are the best 
- Less talks about what to expect in the workplace..or bookend them so you have them at the start and the end
- Relevant speakers to the coming weeks topic

## Suggestions for next term
- do them all in person
- Week 4 have someone give an intro to Figma

### Keep
- TypeScript (Tony)
- Cloud computing (Ayub)
- Functional/Haskell (Vatsal?)
- Large code bases (Oli J)
- Project mgmt (Joe F, Week 6)
