Agenda

  • @eldang will talk about generating fictional English place names.
  • @jmt2080ad will talk about two short unrelated topics: tiling window managers and the data.table library in R. Tiling window managers offer fast automatic ways of organizing windows from key commands instead of using the mouse. data.table offers fast tabular data operations, both in how we type the operations and how the operations are run. Jason will talk about one example of data.table syntax that is very concise and powerful, but a bit confusing at first.
  • @mattmakesmaps will describe a workflow for intercepting weather satellite signals with amateur radio equipment and processing them into images like this.

@you tell us about something cool you are working on
