#introduction

👋 Hi all ! I am a research engineer at CNRS 🇫🇷, working at the UAR RIATE on the development of applications or libraries for the visualization or the processing of geographic information.
I did my PhD in Grenoble 🏔️🚁 about Semantic Web and geovisualisation.

I love #foss, #python, #rust, #JSspatial, #osm, #dataviz, #qgis and #gis in general.
Also maintainer of magrit.cnrs.fr 🗺️ (thematic cartography tool).

Are you the kind of person who likes to spend hours exploring #HistoricalMaps of your neighbourhood? This might be exactly the thing for you... bothness.github.io/ons-basemap

Hi friends - at the advice of some helpful followers, I've migrated my account to this server.

I've tweeted about it here, and you'll see that my Linktree also links to this new profile.

Excited to be here with you all!

So I'll start as I'd like to think I'll go on - with a photo! And I'll start with a good one! It's not new, but hey, you've probably not seen it before 😂

#Peebles in the Scottish Borders at sunset, a January a few years ago

It was spectacular! And pure luck that the photo wasn't ruined by camera shake as I was shooting over a 6 foot wall!

@lokigwyn@piaille.fr Salut. De quel plugin s'agissait-il ? Tes polices sont au format TTF, j'imagine ?

TO JOURNALISTS: Please don't use Mastodon for private messages. Instead, use an encrypted messenger.

If you want something decentralized, I suggest XMPP or The Matrix.

Good old fashioned email also works.

There's also an instant messenger known as DeltaChat that's based on email protocols, and sends your chats to email—where they can be stored and archives. delta.chat/en/

@staceyjmiller I'd think you should be able to contact the moderator for that instance. For example, the instance you're registered on has rules and moderation information, and a contact email for the administrator. tooting.ch/about/more

@MrCamel999 @privacyguides Just happens to be the one we use. I did notice there were a few issues with it in the past. Point well taken!

@thibault En suivant les nouvelles de Librem One dont le leitmotiv est le respect de la vie privée.

I am wreaking a little havoc on Twitter right now. I’m feeling quite smug.

If you want to find out about the work I've done on the sim to date, it's here for now: curiousduck.io/

I say "for now" because I'm in the middle of redoing all my web sites. (Recently took down testobsessed.com.) Eventually I'll send an update to the newsletter subscribers over there to watch my mastodon feed here for updates & will repurpose that URL.

Not sure where I'll put the existing content. Since it's of limited interest, might just store it privately. So, read while you can?

So gives me the capacity to add my own in preferences. How does that work? Is there an Apps repository somewhere? docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/

@jkpritch I'm still at the stage where I look up my Twitter list and try to find them here. But the cool thing about instances on Mastodon is that you can look up their directories, and potentially find people / threads of interest. e.g. fediscience.org/explore

I'd like to hear what people want out of #ScienceMastodon

To me, the best bit of Twitter has been learning and chatting about cool science; and hearing what my colleagues are up to. At it's best it's the poster session at a conference

But instead the algorithm gives you this toxic--but highly addictive--sludge

So I'd love to recreate the best bits of that here--I'd love to be able to come here and consistently learn from interesting people (and keep the existential doom elsewhere)

Thoughts?

Salut, moi c’est Éric, et je suis informaticien au nord de Londres.

J’ai de multiples intérêts, changeants en fonction de ce qui m’intéresse au jour le jour.

Toute suggestion de groupes ou comptes sur Mastodon est la bienvenue.

Ce qui m’intéresse en général : -fiction
