  • A lot of subsurface scientists and engineers have started teaching Python to their colleagues, their clients, their students, or their supervisors. Between everyone, there is a lot of material out there in GitHub and on YouTube. This is an attempt to list some of it, maybe even most of it. Please add to it if you find more. It might seem a bit crazy that we have all this overlapping, or even redundant, material... but you have to write it to teach it! Structured course material What is in this category? In general, these materials come from academics and might tend to be on the heavier side. (For example more than 1 equation per notebook.) The emphasis might be more on geoscience than on learning to code. They tend to be organized into semesters.

Organizing unsessions, idea jams and hackathons for scientists Contents Introduction This is a short but opinionated guide to organizing scientific meetings that matter. If you're fed up with sleepy symposiums, weary workshops, or the feeling of despair at having to give — or, worse, listen to! — a talk at 4:30 on the last afternoon of the conference, we're here to help.

  • Preliminary notes for the dev-summit on Monday, 4 October, 16:00 UTC in the Château. [toc] Idea The idea of a Software-Underground-Stack or a Subsurface-Stack is probably almost as old as SWUNG itself. Something that unifies the open-source codes, something to give a face to the outside world, which might also attract funding from industry. Something to show that the open-source stack is strong in the geosciences, and is not only some nerds coding away, without stability or guarantee to work. Role models in this respect (with slightly different scopes) are, e.g., NumFOCUS and Jupyter Meets the Earth, or Pangeo. Swung orchestrated already many initiatives in this direction: There is the https://softwareunderground.org/stack - page, and there is the subsurface Python package to connect various packages in the ecosystem. Nothing took off so far, mainly because of a lack of ...time! We are all busy, many of us are main developers of a code that could potentially be part of The Rock, and often this is not even our paid job and we have to find time to maintain it. My suggestion is therefore: Let's lower the expectations, but start today! As such I suggest bi-monthly meetings (or monthly, but alternating the times to enable people anywhere on the globe to participate in one or the other). These bigger meetings are just to connect, but most things should happen in smaller groups, with only one or a few people. So the big meetings is to assign tasks, keep track on them, and syncronize.
