FOSDEM is the annual event for all things free and open source software in Europe happening over the 1st weekend in February in Brussels. In this episode I want to talk about one "dev room" (developer room) in particular: the one on Open Research, that has been running since 2020. Over the course of a day, we heard from a variety of speakers on topics ranging from climate change to human choreography in computing. Curious? Have a listen Links: https://fosdem.org/2025/schedule/trac...

My guest is John Stevenson from the British Geological Survey (BGS) and there is a lot to cover in this episode: John's switch from science to engineering; how to move from proprietary to open source software - and the hot stuff: volcanos. And what John did in volcanology. Here are a few links: https://www.bgs.ac.uk/people/stevenson-john/ John's profile at the BGS https://volcanologistsoutsideacademia.wordpress.com/2018/08/29/spotlight-john-a-stevenson-ph-d/https://all-geo.org/volc...
