🇪🇺 #EUelections are getting closer! Get active and make your voice be heard about #SoftwareFreedom!

🤔 How?

💡 For example, you can use our share-pic generator and share why you support our “Public Money? Public Code!” campaign. Post your share-pic on social media and encourage others to do the same! 🚀

Is anyone aware of any #researchsoftware #training programs that have been tried that are longer than the common, relatively short 0.5-2 day workshops?

I'm thinking of more spread out training such as an hour/week over 3 months or something along those lines.

Specifically considering things like software best practice, git etc.

I'd like to learn from others whether this has been tried, whether it works and whether it's tenable in research.

@gvwilson @coderefinery #git #training #education

I've been teaching git through carpentries (and other) workshops and whilst I think some learners will take the training and move on to self learning, I'd like to be able to support those for whom some more interactive long-term support would be beneficial.

It's our Maker Day! Today Saturday 9th March 10am - 5pm. Join us for laser cutting, 3d printing, embroidery and sewing machines, electronics and more!
Everyone welcome including accompanied children.

Exciting news! We're extending the Call for Proposals for another week!!! 🎉
That's your chance to be part of the EuroPython 2024.
https://ep2024.europython.eu/cfp/

We're looking for talks of all sorts but especially under the following topics:
- Ethics, Philosophy & Politics
- Arts, Crafts Culture & Demos
- Makers, Microcontrollers and IoT
- Testing and QA
- Security

Underrepresented minorities, help us make the best EuroPython so far! Submit your proposals! 📝

💡 Why is software created using taxpayers’ money not released as #FreeSoftware?

If it is public money, it should be public code as well.

A concept I haven't seen yet: At the bus station there is a repeating short beeping sound indicating that a bus is coming up. There is also a button which, when pressed, tells you which bus is arriving. That's neat!

@sdruskat so far, I'm only planning to attend #deRSE24 and Software Software Sustainability #CollabW24. But I will visit Berlin for leisure at the end of June. Will drop you an email for plan cake 🍰 and chat.

Have you ever struggled to re-use a replication package from software-engineering research papers and you did not know why? We also don't know but maybe we can explore this together?

Jacob Krüger (@jkrueger) and I are organizing the Hackathon "Making Replication Packages Usable (Again)" at #deRSE24 in Würzburg, Germany March 5th-7th, 2024.

#OpenScience #deRSE @de_rse @seresearchers

@caha42 Very similar here... 🙂

I'm curious whether there will be even more activity on #mastodon about #derse24 this time...

Excited to be in Würzburg for #deRSE24 🤩

All my shirts are ready, too...

Come meet me

- at our workshop on FAIR and Reproducible Code (Mar 5, 9:30 AM)
- after my talk on Improving research through training - the Digital Research Academy
(Mar 6, 2:20 PM)
- or anywhere else where I hop around during this fun week about research software

Attending #deRSE24 in #wurzburg tomorrow. Conference on research software engineering in Germany. Going to present our #Snakemake on #HPC teaching material together with @rupdecat

No idea how to return with the rail #strike on Thursday...

Three observations at a pre-conference (#deRSE24) workshop in Germany:

1. It's very nice for me that this meeting in Germany with 90%+ German attendees is in English.

2. There are far fewer Macs vs PCs (perhaps running Linux?) than there would be at a similar meeting in the US.

3. It's nice that there is coffee, juice, and coke to drink, even in the morning. Too many US meetings only provide coke in the afternoon, if at all.

@sdruskat sad that I will not see you during #deRSE24.

@sdruskat I'm sad, too. But will see you in April 🙌

It's the week of #deRSE24 and I'm simultaneously

- sad that I won't be there;
- glad for the (virtual) extra time to work on my thesis.

Travel safely, have fun, get back 🚄, and see you next year at #deRSE25!

@sdruskat are you at the RSE DE confere this week?

Integrating BinderHub with JupyterHub 🚀

Integrating the capabilities of mybinder.org and #BinderHub into #JupyterHub allows users to control their computational research environments and significantly reduces the workload for administrators.
