Possible topics for Python podcast

I taught programming to humanities students for many years. This is also something we can sometimes talk about within the programming community.

What can you focus on in such a conversation?

Here's an outline for a conversation plan:

  • Why should humanities students learn python? Common problems that are solved by code.
  • Why Python and not R or Fortran? What libraries are in demand for humanitarians?
  • What are the differences in learning to develop for humanitarians, what are the challenges faced? Language barrier.
  • Does GPT work? What do the humanities think about it?
  • Esoteric programming languages from a humanist's point of view
  • Poems in programming code
  • What do natural language and programming language have in common? Python as a foreign language
