It is a great tool. And I enjoyed my chat with John and Albert.

A question re online audio/video recording tools: Does anyone have any experiences with Podcastle.ai? I've been using Zencastr so far, but have become less happy with it.

Despite a summer break, work on #code4thought continues. E.g. a recording with @jwbaker.bsky.social from the Uni Southampton where I went yesterday. James leads the digital humanities and we talked about the work they do. Will be out in autumn this year.

Oh yes, I took the Eurostar on Monday from Gare du Nord, which was as busy as I have ever seen it.

Early this year I made my way to #FOSDEM25 to the Open Research devroom that's been running since 2020. Wonder what they've been up to?

Ah - it's getting serious! I am excited (and nervous) to talk at MediaLab @medialab-scpo.bsky.social about my work on #code4thought .

Je suis ravi (à même temps un peu nerveux) d'aller à MediaLab @medialab-scpo.bsky.social pour présenter mon travail sur #code4thought .

I had a great recording (out late '25) with Bill Kurth about Voyager 1+2, sound recordings from space and what the future holds of these two exploratory space crafts. They are now traversing interstellar space - and may well outlast not only humans but our solar system. The mind boggles.

Es ist nicht alles Gold was glänzt, heißt es. Gilt das auch für KI? Wieviel kann es beim Programmieren helfen?
Diesen Fragen gehe ich in #code4thought [DE] mit Carina Haupt, Chris Stenkamp vom @dlr-de.bsky.social nach. Jetzt auf Euren Podcast apps, YouTube oder codeforthought.buzzsprout.com

It might be best to continue this conversation per email?

The podcast is aimed at researchers who code and research software engineers. So an intro to projects and a technical discussion about them would be a very good fit.

My pleasure. I will be in Paris until 30 June and if you or anyone want to do another episode e.g. on :probabl. let me know.

Who would I stumble across on a visit to the Centre Pompidou in Paris but a workshop on AI with one of the people from scikit-learn @gaelvaroquaux.bsky.social . Who I interviewed (with his colleagues) last year for an episode on #code4thought codeforthought.buzzsprout.com/1326658/epis...

J'ai tombé sur une conférence sur IA hier après-midi au Centre Pompidou à Paris. ‪Gaël Varoqaux @gaelvaroquaux.bsky.social a assisté. J'ai fait un enregistrement avec lui et les autres de scikit-learn dernier an pour un épisode #code4thought codeforthought.buzzsprout.com/1326658/epis...

Indeed you need deep pockets to get to IEEE content (FEEE is very funny 😀). Recently, I wanted to get the floating point standard IEEE 754 and found it cost quite a bit.

My alma mater UCL (UCL Advanced Research Computing (ARC) ) is running a workshop (in person only) for budding research software engineers #rse
It'll be running between 23-27 June between 10am-5pm with social evenings.
