@ultrazool @geospacedman @concretedog @ianturton Control and portability are my main arguments for #opensource in #gis.

#BritishGeologicalSurvey swapped from ESRI to #QGIS for field data capture last year. With in-house developers, we could write a Python plugin to do exactly what we want and the licence allows us to share with whomever we want. ArcGIS Field Maps were too simplistic and locked-in. #ResearchSoftwareEngineer movement means Universities increasingly have developers, too. 1/n

Perfect day for learning how to work with responsible disclosures, how Git platforms support them, how to define the relevant CWEs and how to judge the severity of the reported vulnerability. Saved me from hanging bling onto a dead plant. Learned much, and believe that every #ResearchSoftwareEngineer should get the opportunity to learn how to do these things. Ideally before they have to do them.

Should have done this earlier and saved myself some membership dues, but having told #UCU that I am currently unemployed, my membership is free for up to a year ๐Ÿ‘

Now, where are all the remote/Scotland #Bioinformatics & #ResearchSoftwareEngineer jobs hiding? Or should I try the commercial world as a #Python programmer... #GetFediHired

I have updated a draft of the RCP Internship Discovery Program Welcome slides for Summer 2025/2026.

It is more aligned with the fact that our most successful interns are organised, communicate well and ask lots of questions.

I also tried to fit in how university projects are not as complex as standard workplace projects, and our projects are even more complex than that.

So please check out the Canva slides in the comments

Do you write code for your research?
Then you too are a #ResearchSoftwareEngineer! ๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿ’ป ๐Ÿค“ Today is international #RSE - day and we want to promote this community. Maybe you want to join one of these fab groups to connect to like-minded people? ๐ŸŽ‡
@us_rse organises USA RSEs, @ResearchSoftEng is the UK group, @de_rse the German one, @nordic_rse live way up North and @RSEAA is active in Asia and Australia. ๐ŸŒ
(we couldn't find African and Southamerican RSEs at the fediverse - but we know they exist!)

I also spent some time with former and current Accessibility Fellows from the upcoming Research Software Asia Australia conference (#RSAA25).

It was lovely to talk to all of them and to answer their questions about how they could benefit and how they could share their experiences with the broader community. I'm keen to raise this kind of Fellowship for other #conferences in #research

Grr. Another unsuccessful job application, this was for a 100% remote data scientist role. Where are all the remote #bioinformatics or #ResearchSoftwareEngineer UK jobs hiding? Or did they go out of fashion once COVID restrictions lifted? #GetFediHired
