Like the last few years (2013, 2014 and 2015) I’ve been to the PyCon UK 2016. This year, 2016, it was in Cardiff instead of Coventry. Next year, 2017, it will be in Cardiff again. It was in the City Hall in Cardiff. An excellent location! much bigger (well, some room could have been bigger). […] I had many things with me in Namibia… I’ll only mention a few things that either surprised me how useful were or I think that some people might not have them. OsmAnd OsmAnd is an Android/iPhone app (I’ve only used the Android version).

(walking, the room or eating). Erongo Wilderness lodge As said before: it was our favourite one. The room was very good, the service, guided walks, food was very good, afternoon tea, etc. Only one thing: […] One of the things that happened in Namibia is that everything there is slow.

Obviously, like almost every first time going anywhere , there were some things that I wish I had known.

If you go to Namibia: don’t hesitate and use it! When we started planning Namibia we were a bit confused: what to do, where to […] A few weeks ago I mentioned that I was going to attend an Icehack in Cambridge. This happened yesterday and I had good fun, learnt a few things (about British Antarctic Survey and about IPython-notebook), meet nice people, had enough food for dinner (and, OMG, even fresh fruit besides the mandatory hack-pizza). Thanks very much […] In 2 weeks, on 7th March 2016, the Cambridge Science Festival will start. It’s 2 weeks or science talks, workshops, activities… and hackathons! In Cambridge of course. Many of the events are free to attend but require a ticket booking. Have a look at the webpage to see what’s available. There are talks about many […] Two weeks ago I mentioned that I was going to present the Benches app at #geomob London. Now I’m on the #geomob London wall of fame. The presentation went well! The slides are available online. A few slides need some explanation but you can get the gist of the presentation. This coming weekend is FOSDEM 2016: the biggest conference (and it’s free) about Free and OpenSource in Europe (at least). It’s in Brussels and registration is not needed. Check the schedule and you might still be able to come. |
