My guests Daniel S. Katz Katz @danielskatz.org and Ben Clifford talk to me on #code4thought [EN] about their Python library #Parsl & how it can help researchers with their parallel apps and workflows. Out on your #podcast app, YouTube podcast or codeforthought.buzzsprout.com

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

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...
