Today, we celebrate: The Carpentries has come to its end as a fiscally sponsored project and is officially an independent 501(c)(3) non-profit organisation!
This momentous achievement did not happen overnight, but is a culmination of many years of efforts from the Executive Teams and Governance structures of The Carpentries, supported throughout by our incredible global community. 🙏

As of 16 November 2023, we achieved a 6-months milestone of having all our lessons use #TheCarpentriesWorkbench (our new lesson infrastructure)! 🎉 👏
In this 18th update in The Dovetail series, documenting our transition to The Workbench, @zkamvar shares details about (and #CarpentriesGratitudes for) achieving this milestone: https://carpentries.org/blog/2023/11/sandpaper-0-15-0/

@felwert @rasmus91 @dkz2r @thecarpentries This is understanable and I’d say it always depends on what you want to achieve. For a lightweight "just writing some text" I prefer always(!) #Emacs with #org-mode . But in my PhD thesis (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.2548872) I did things I was only capable of doing using #TeXLaTeX - it is always a trade of.
I dont know any other tool that would be able to create such data-driven visualizations:

While I (co-)maintain the OpenRefine for Social Sciences lesson for @thecarpentries, I will be teaching a 2 hour OpenRefine workshop based on #TheProgrammingHistorian's https://doi.org/10.46430/phen0023 in Leiden on 23 June.
See https://www.staff.universiteitleiden.nl/events/2025/06/openrefine for registration info.

However, the #SnakeMake novice bioinformatics tutorial from #TheCarpentries https://carpentries-incubator.github.io/snakemake-novice-bioinformatics/08-configuring.html#using-config-settings-with-params says:
"Using config settings with params
Strictly speaking, you don’t have to use config in conjunction with params like this, but it’s normally a good idea to do so."
Why is this a good idea? At first take it seems needlessly verbose to me 🤷

Wow, the removal of @thecarpentries windows-maintainers team really takes me back.
When #SoftwareCarpentry started teaching workshops in ~2012 installation for Windows users was a nightmare. We would often spend the first 1+ hours of a workshop desperately scrambling to fix bash/Python install issues on Windows.
So, a tiny group of us starting trying to make that experience better. 🧵

#Nonprofit Refuses $1.5M #Science #Grant Due To New Federal #DEI Rules
#TheCarpentries, a nonprofit that has trained over 100,000 researchers in coding and data skills, turned down a $1.5 million #NSF grant after being asked to strip diversity-related content from its programming. For an organization with just three months of cash on hand, it was a decision that threatens the organization’s very existence.
