Body: <p>I've been working on the Punctuation Restoration Problem for my Master's Thesis, however, me being primarily a programmer at heart, I wish I could use some of my NLP skills to solve issues related to programming in general.</p>
  <p>I know Microsoft does lots of research in NLP and I think after they acquired Github, they have an immense dataset to work with for any problems related to programming they want to tackle. Most recently I think they did a great job on their new python suggestion extension on VSCode.</p>
  <p>So, could you suggest to me some issues you think are interesting research topics? This is something that I would like to work with, but I have no idea where to start yet.</p>

  I've been working on the Punctuation Restoration Problem for my Master's Thesis, however, me being primarily a programmer at heart, I wish I could use some of my NLP skills to solve issues related to programming in general.
  
  I know Microsoft does lots of research in NLP and I think after they acquired Github, they have an immense dataset to work with for any problems related to programming they want to tackle. Most recently I think they did a great job on their new python suggestion extension on VSCode.
  
  So, could you suggest to me some issues you think are interesting research topics? This is something that I would like to work with, but I have no idea where to start yet.
