Personally, the week in Munich at the #SnakemakeHackathon2026 was really neat. I met friends and acquaintances, took the time to meet an old friend of mine not working in academia any more and the wonderful @FrankSonntag from our #FediScience association.

Holy crap, you guys. Seriously?
Only EIGHT of us are supporting Fediscience.org?
Chip in, everybody.
