  1. And at the bottom of one of my too many "project boxes" I found this 5G WiFi USB dongle.

    Not much to look at, but it saved me on a hackathon 2 years ago. My "older but good enough" laptop only did 2.4G WiFi, but my venue only had 5G WiFi available 😭

    Yes, in hindsight, my laptop was not good enough!

    The one and only time I have waited outside a Currys for it to open 😄

    It saved me, and the hackathon was an absolute blast - the skills I learnt then, I still use today!

  4. 16-year-old Latvian breaks into the 85 billion dollar global market with a new innovation

    Latvia is a small country, which perhaps makes every achievement by fellow Latvians feel even more special. Society…

  5. 🎉 Ah, the classic tale of #nerds on an #island 🌴 trying to turn #NixOS into Fort Knox, but instead, they just made it "Secure-ish Boot" 😂. Apparently, the real #hackathon challenge was figuring out how to spell "focused" correctly. 🙄

  21. We’re rethinking the conference #Hackathon format by launching a HaCLAthon (C=Collaborative, L=Long-term, A=Asynchronous) [1] for the #IOER 2026 conference. [2]

    The goal is a living #JupyterBook that becomes a citable publication with a DOI. Here is the stack I built to make it actually work:

    1. The Problem: Jupyter Notebooks are great for #DataScience, but a difficult for collaborative #Git diffs and non-technical domain experts. Solution: We use #Jupytext to maintain a bidirectional sync between .ipynb (for code) and .md (for text stories).

    2. The Problem: Inviting external contributions usually means a security/privacy black box if you use 3rd-party CMS brokers to link into Github/Gitlabs. Solution: I deployed a self-hosted #Golang OAuth broker to handle the GitHub handshake on our servers as a microsservice. 100% #DSGVO compliant and sovereign. [3]

    3. The Problem: We want domain experts to write, but we don't want to force them to learn Git. Solution: Integrated a browser-based visual editor (#DecapCMS/#SveltiaCMS). Edits enter a Kanban-style editorial workflow as PRs. We review/merge on Github, and our #GitLab CI/CD builds the book.

    4. The Result: Developers get #Jupyter4NFDI or local #Docker environments. Writers get a WYSIWYG browser editor. Everyone gets listed as an author on a persistent scientific artifact.

    Documentation is also about building inclusive pipelines!
