I LOVE this kind of stuff; interesting to think about applications of computer programming that use hardware to engage with the world (esp. that calls back to old-school forms like telegrams and switchboards). And, of course, always a sucker for a big red arcade button.

We've got one week left of the bootcamp. By next week we'll have produced working prototypes for data mining, data visualisation, web scraping and a Twitter bot!
We're already into week 3 of the Python bootcamp and we now have three groups: digital qualitative, mixed methods and data mining. This week we're moving on from basic techniques to begin building something for the first time ⛏
First Zoom session of the 2021 @NCRMUK Python for Social Science Bootcamp done; REALLY fun, really exciting to meet new social science people who will be coding in the not too distant future, yaaaay! And now, coffee.
Delighted to have been offered a place on the @ProgSocSci Python for Social Scientists Bootcamp from @NCRMUK starting later this month and to meeting others on the course.
