Concordia ENCS (Gina Cody) Discord Tech Talks

Every 2 weeks we're going to be hosting some tech talks here on the Discord server (join by clicking on the link here). The talks will be around an hour long and are each about different technologies, tools and techniques. The talks will be streamed in the voice channel #TechTalk just below this channel having the same name (#tech-talk). If you're interested in them, please drop in and listen and learn something fascinating.
