Get ready for the upcoming CKAN releases, here we are! ckan.org/blog/getting-r…

🛰️✨ Inspired by @wallacetim's beautiful efforts in 2020, I've put together some stunning images of our changing energy system at sea using Sentinel-1 radar. The one below is the build-out of the world's largest offshore wind farm off the Yorkshire coast! blog.datadesk.eco/p/sky-lapse-in…

I'll be doing a quick demo and hopefully start a discussion about potential AI/ML work in @CKANproject in tomorrow's Dev Meeting (13:00 UTC), come if you are interested: github.com/ckan/ckan/wiki…

"Duh, I'm not reading all that, just show me the code" There you go: github.com/amercader/ckan…

I've been exploring how to integrate some ML techniques in data portals, and wrote a two-part blog post about my learning: amercader.net/blog/exploring… amercader.net/blog/exploring…

@amercader @OKFN Wow! Congratulations and *thank you* for all you have done over these many years, Adrià. You are an amazing person and the impact you had speaks for itself. The world is a better place because of it. Time for a well-deserved sabbatical. All the best, man.

The Digital Services Act is a transparency machine. Platforms have to submit every 6 months a report describing their content moderation activities in the EU. The first reports are in and there’s a wealth of information in there. Thread

@amercader @CKANproject @DPGAlliance Any idea how @OpenRefine could qualify as a Digital Public Good @DPGAlliance ? or a few other 100 open source software? Anyways, our upcoming 4.0 version is directly helping address using lower-end hardware for data cleaning and aligns with your mission! Do we just apply?

Really proud of this one. The biggest value I've always seen in @CKANproject is its potential to be a force for good. Being recognised as a DPG by @DPGAlliance is a huge endorsement to the project and the community
