The event is canceled!

Dear friends,

We are sorry that many of our planned events were canceled such as HackNU, IT Career Fair, NU Open, and Senior Talks. Those events should undoubtedly improve and motivate our IT Community.

Instead, we want to encourage all of you to participate in our challenge. Probably, you will have plenty of time, so let’s develop with us! The rules are pretty simple. Code at least an hour every day for the next 100 days. More info and the other rules you can find here!

With this challenge, we want that all participants will have real projects which can be included in your CVs.

P. S. If you are not sure with 100 days. Start with a simple step: firstly try to complete 25 day challenge, then if you succeed move forward to 50 days' one, and finally achieve 100 days of coding result!

​Google’s Inside Look program is now open for applications!

The program was created to bring together a like minded group of students, to connect over their passion for technology and a desire to learn more about life in a tech role at Google.

If you’re studying CS or a related subject in Europe, the Middle East or Africa, apply by 1st June at goo.gle/insidelook2020.

We want to give you the best possible chance of success when applying for this competitive program, so we’ve recorded - from our homes - a video guide to writing a great CV. We know it’s hard to convey all the things you’re proud of in a concise way, so we’re here to help!

Would you like programs like Siri or Alexa speak in Kazakh? Scientists from the Institute of Smart Systems and Artificial Intelligence (ISSAI) of the Nazarbayev University are conducting a research study on the development of Kazakh language voice database. The aim is to collect voice data in the Kazakh language for the future use in the technologies like speech recognition and speech synthesis. 

These technologies are used in well-known virtual assistants as Siri, Alexa, and Cortana. In the future, this database will also be used for creating other programs/applications in the Kazakh language. 

Your help is very important. Please press the link below, read the instructions and start the experiment. In the experiment, you will need to read aloud sentences in Kazakh language.
 
The more sentences you record, the faster new programs will be created. Each person can participate unlimited number of times.
 
Please share and repost if you can.
