Last week Nafiul Islam invited an expert guest, Mason Egger from DigitalOcean, to do an in-depth coding session on Slackbot creation.

Ilya currently works on WSL and SSH (as well as other remote interpreters and targets)

Sometime last week, I had the opportunity to sit down with Andrey Vlasovskikh and discuss where PyCharm is now, and where it plans to go into the future; trying to understand how we got here along the way.
