In this ByteSized RSE episode we talk about GIT and some of the great features it comes with. I also wanted to find out where GIT comes from, and what's with its name.My interview partner is Raniere Silva who works at Gesis, which is part of the Leibniz Institute in Germany.Git comes with loads of features: in this episode we focus on how to deal with and avoid merge conflicts, branching patterns and features such as stash and cherrypick. Here are a few links:https://git-scm.com a great resource of documentation including GIT references and a book you can freely downloadhttps://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git/ the repo for GIT itself.

Meet Graham Lee, who has decided to investigate research software engineering  for his PhD thesis. I met Graham at the RSE conference in Newcastle, UK late 2022 where he presented his work in form of an "inverted" talk (i.e. driven by the audience). Since there are not many people who make RSEs a subject of study and a PhD thesis, I caught up with Graham after the conference. In our conversation we discuss his thesis and questions such as: is RSE actually a distinct role/discipline and what the future might hold.Talking of conferences:UK RSE Conference https://rsecon23.society-rse.org Swansea, UK, between 5-6 September 2023.NOTE: submissions of abstract deadline extended to 3 May 2023! Keydates: https://rsecon23.society-rse.org/key-dates/ US RSE Conference (the first!) https://us-rse.org/usrse23/ Chicago, IL, USA, 16-18 October 2023deRSE Unconference https://un-derse23.sciencesconf.org/index Jena, Germany, 26-28 September 2023.Support the showThank you for listening and your ongoing support.

In dieser Folge ist Musik in der Tat Trumpf. 2021 haben sich das DLR und Martin Hennecke zusammengeschlossen um ein aufregendes Projekt auf die Bühne zu bringen. Das Gedicht 'The Sphinx' untermalt von Charles Ives' 'The Unanswered Question'. Dabei war die Aufgabe, Reaktionen des Publikums mittels Biosensoren und künstlicher Intelligenz aufzunehmen und damit die live gespielte Partitur zu verändern. Lynn von Kurnatowksi von der DLR erzählt uns in dieser 2. deutschsprachigen Folge wie das ganze Experiment zwischen Kunst, Wissenschaft und Software Engineering verlaufen ist.Links:https://wiki.theater.digital/projects:theunansweredquestion:start Projektbeschreibunghttps://vimeo.com/712835935 Video auf Vimeohttps://www.dlr.de/sc/en/desktopdefault.aspx/tabid-1192/1635_read-34048/sortby-lastname/ Lynn von Kurnatowski von der DLRhttps://twitter.com/LYNX_V Twitter Kontohttps://www.martinhennecke.com Martin Hennecke's Webseitehttps://theater.digital Akademie für Theater und Digitalitäthttps://www.mdc-berlin.de Das Max Selbrück Zentrum in Berlin (Aufnahme der MRI Daten des Schauspielers)https://www.helmholtz-hida.de/en/hida-news/when-data-becomes-sound https://www.dlr.de/content/en/institutes/institute-for-software-technology.html DLR Institute for Software TechnologySupport the showThank you for listening and your ongoing support.

Getting funding for software engineering in research is an ongoing challenge. The Research Software Alliance together with the eScience Centre in the Netherlands organised a 2 day workshop in Amsterdam 8-9 Nov 2022 to see how we can get on top of it. I invited the director of ReSA, Michelle Barker and Joris van Eijnatten, director of the eScience centre to talk about the workshop and the declaration that came out of it. Links:https://adore.software official Amsterdam declaration sitehttps://future-of-research-software.org the workshop pagehttps://zenodo.org/record/7330542#.ZCHG7C8w3uc the draft declarationhttps://www.researchsoft.org ReSA the research software alliancehttps://www.esciencecenter.nl/ the eScience Centre in the Netherlandshttps://www.esciencecenter.nl/news/global-support-for-funding-sustainable-research-software-in-amsterdam/ the workshopOther links mentionedhttps://eosc-portal.eu European Open Science Cloudhttps://wellcome.org Wellcome Trusthttps://chanzuckerberg.com The Chan-Zuckerberg InitiativeSupport the showThank you for listening and your ongoing support.

The 6th instalment of ByteSized is about IDEs. They are mostly taken for granted these days. Hence, it might be easy to forget how much effort and time they saved when they were introduced. After a brief history and talking about some popular IDEs, I'll be talking to Joaquin Dominguez from the US about how he uses IDEs, which ones and why. He also pointed out a relatively new one called zed (Mac only for now). Here a links to some editors etc.:https://code.visualstudio.com Visual Studio Code by Microsoft - also used in the interactive ByteSized RSE sessionshttps://github.com/microsoft/vscode VSCode GitHubhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W--_EOzdTHk example of how to set up VSCode for Pythonhttps://analyticsindiamag.com/is-microsofts-vs-code-really-open-source/ is VSCode open source? https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/ PyCharm - there is a free Community editionhttps://neovim.io Neovim - a Vim based IDEhttps://www.pydev.org PyDev as part of the Eclipse IDE https://github.com/spyder-ide/spyder Spyder https://zed.dev - seems a new kid on the block (beta version), for now it's Mac only Some older stuffhttps://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/download.html - good ol' Emacshttps://github.com/jorgenschaefer/elpy Python for EmacsByte-sized RSE is presented in collaboration with the UNIVERSE-HPC project.https://www.imperial.ac.uk/computational-methods/rse/events/byte-sized-rse/ByteSized RSE link to Imperial CollegeSupport the showThank you for listening and your ongoing support.

There are a lot of excellent training programmes for researchers and RSEs, like the Code Refineries and various Carpentries. But with demand of experienced engineers growing rapidly, we have a gap in training enough RSEs. In this episode I meet with Jeremy Cohen, Radovan Bast, Weronika Filinger and Malvika Sharan to discuss training and what we can do to fill the gap. There are a lot of training programs, but here are the links for those mentioned in the panel discussion: https://software-carpentry.org Software Carpentryhttps://coderefinery.org Code Refineryhttp://www.hpc-carpentry.org HPC Carpentryhttps://excalibur.ac.uk/projects/universe-hpc/ UK Universe-HPC programmehttps://www.imperial.ac.uk/computational-methods/rse/events/byte-sized-rse/ ByteSized RSE programme (and this podcast) as part of Universe-HPChttps://intersect-training.org/training-links/ a roadmap and overview of existing training resourcesSupport the showThank you for listening and your ongoing support.

Linting and static code analysis in general are important tools in software engineering. Making sure the code builds and works is all very well. But a consistent coding style minimises maintenance efforts and future development. In this episode I'll introduce several tools that can make your code analysis easier: pylint https://www.pylint.org flake8 https://flake8.pycqa.org/en/latest/index.html black https://black.readthedocs.io/en/stable/index.html pre-commit https://pre-commit.com pre-commit hooks https://pre-commit.com/hooks.htmlOther links you may find interesting and have been mentioned in the episodePEP8 https://peps.python.org/pep-0008/ Google Python Style Guide https://google.github.io/styleguide/pyguide.html YAML file format https://yaml.org Stephen C.

In 2021, the Society for Research Software Engineering in the UK launched its first mentoring pilot scheme. 20 mentor/mentee pairs registered for it. I spoke with the organisers of the scheme, Ania Brown and Sam Mangham to give us an overview of how this project came about. For the second part of this episode, I met with Mark Turner (Newcastle University, UK) and James Graham (King's College, London, UK) who signed up for the pilot project as mentor and mentee, to find out how it all went for them.Here is the link to the Pilot program. https://society-rse.org/events/pilot-mentoring-programme/Thank you for listening and your ongoing support.

Open Access is one of the pillars of Open Science. In this episode I am talking to Jean-Claude Guedon from the University of Montreal (Canada). Jean-Claude is one of the authors of the declaration of the Budapest Open Access Initiative from 2002. He is also an expert on scientific communication and its history. Who better to take us through the road that led to the Open Access declaration, what has become of it and where (we hope) it will go. Here a few links you might look up:https://www.budapestopenaccessinitiative.org The site of the Budapest Open Access Initiative - which includes the declarationhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-Claude_Guédon Jean-Claude's bio on Wikipediahttps://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/frma.2018.00008/full a history on the Garfield scientific indexinghttps://www.michaeleisen.org/blog/?p=1580 Michael Eisen another co-author of the Budapest declaration.

For this episode I met with Nicolas Thiery from Uni Paris-Saclay in summer 2022. Nicolas is an open source activist and has been leading the Candyce project in France to promote the use of Jupyter in the classroom. Nicolas highlights the advantages of using open source tools like Jupyter and how the pandemic accelerated their use.And that we need education software engineers as well as research software engineers to train people up in computing in the future.Here a few links, mentioned in the episode:https://nicolas.thiery.name/ Nicolas' homepagehttps://nicolas.thiery.name/CandyceProposal/ the proposal for Candyce (in French)https://www.maplesoft.com/ Maple products https://quantstack.net/ Quantstack cloud solutions provider  Support the showThank you for listening and your ongoing support.

After 3 years, the RSE Conference returned to an in-person event, this time held at the Frederick Douglas Centre in Newcastle, UK.Apart from meeting people that I only met online so far, it was also the first RSE conference for me personally and the first time I recorded with a live audience. The subject of the event was: RSE the next 10 years. Now that we passed the 10th anniversary of the birth of research software engineering as we know - what will the next 10 years bring.With me on the panel wereIdil Ozdemir (University College London)Simon Hettrick (Software Sustainability Institute)Jennifer Richards (University of Newcastle)Anika Cawthorn (University College London)Michael James (EPSRC - UKRI)https://rsecon2022.society-rse.org RSE Conference 2022 site with links to the programhttps://www.software.ac.uk Software Sustainability Institutehttps://society-rse.org Society for Research Software Engineering in the UKSupport the showThank you for listening and your ongoing support.

For this episode I am very excited to talk to Ben Goldacre. Ben has an outstanding career in medicine, science and science communication and is the author of many articles and books, like e.g. "Bad Science". Today is he running the Bennett Institute for Applied Data Science in Oxford, UK.I met with Ben Goldacre earlier this year (2022) to discuss his report on 'Better, Broader, Safer: Using Health Data for Research and Analysis'. This report, published in April 2022 and commissioned by the UK government, is based on more than 300 individual interviews and many more with key stakeholder groups. One of the key findings and recommendations is the need for proper software engineering. Needless to say that RSEs play an important part in this. In fact, Ben has been a strong supporter and promoter for Research Software Engineering as well as open science and software. Here a few linkshttps://www.phc.ox.ac.uk/team/ben-goldacre Ben Goldacre's web-sitehttps://twitter.com/bengoldacre Ben on Twitterhttps://www.gov.uk/government/publications/better-broader-safer-using-health-data-for-research-and-analysis - 'Better, Broader, Safer: Using Health Data for Research and Analysis' report, April 2022https://www.bennett.ox.ac.uk Bennett InstituteLicence: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/Support the showThank you for listening and your ongoing support.

Welcome back to another season of Code for Thought. And I'd like to kick it off with an interview with Bastien Guerry. Working for the French government, Bastien promotes the use, creation and distribution of Free Software. And in our conversation we discuss the four freedoms as defined by the Free Software Foundation.Bastien is also an active member of the Emacs community and a contributor to one of the modes: Org mode - a note taking facility. Having used Emacs for a long time it's good to see that it is alive and well. https://bzg.fr/en/libreplanet2022-notes/ Bastien's blog and introhttps://www.fsf.org The Free Software Foundationhttps://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.en.html GPL licence https://fosdem.org/2022/schedule/event/open_research_french_ecosystem/ Bastien's presentation on open software at FOSDEM early 2022 https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/ - YES, it's EMACShttps://orgmode.org Emac's Org mode for note taking etcLicence: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/Support the showThank you for listening and your ongoing support.
