Hiya
Happy Tuesday, hope all's well with you.
It's open evening at the space, come along if you fancy. It's lovely that
it is predictably every 7 days, unlike the rapture, which was supposed to
be last week, but now seems to be next week.
We're at...
Suite H Kettock Lodge
Innovation Park
Campus Two
Bridge of Don
Aberdeen
AB22 8GU
There is sort of useful info on...
https://www.57north.org.uk/open-eveningshttps://www.57north.org.uk/contact
Press buzzer H and someone will come and let you in after a wee wait.
Reply if you have any questions, if you want to share your plans, or if
you'd like a lift.
I'll be tinkering with web stuff and drinking coffee.
If you've not been to the Soap Factory, the folk at Code the City have a
fairly busy calendar of events for October, https://codethecity.org/ worth
checking out.
Cheers
Andy

I will aim to be at the space by 8, but some others might be earlier.
I've hit a project hardware stop waiting for parts so I'll be writing
firmware if I can be bothered.

Hi,

Can we pull together (some multiple of) 6 people to field a team(s)?

I go the extra mile.
Usually because I missed the turning I was supposed to take.

I am sure I'll be at the space by 8, but some others might be earlier.
Hello, happy tuesday.
Hope you're well, and enjoying the Aberdeen sunshine (other locations'
sunshine are available). It's tuesday, with unsurprising regularity, so
it's also open evening at the space.
All the useful info is on https://www.57north.org.uk/open-evenings and
https://www.57north.org.uk/contact
I'll be in around 7:30ish, doing some web bits and bobs, some trivial
sewing, and maybe tinkering with a semi dead laptop. Share your plans if
you fancy, or just see you there.
Cheers
Andy
Hi,
We have Łukasz Langa, a python core developer, coming to give talk at python user group this week.
Some stuff Łukasz has done:
• CPython Developer in Residence
• Release manager for Python 3.8 & 3.9
• Creator of Black (the popular Python code formatter)
• Co-host of the core.py podcast
• A brilliant speaker with a background in comedy!
His talk "Discover 3D graphics with WebGL and PyScript" will show us how to create interactive 3D scenes in web browsers using Python - no JavaScript needed!
https://ti.to/code-the-city/apug-sep-2025
Should be interesting for folks who aren't interested in the "Here's what I've been playing with" that you often get from me at these meetings :)
Would be nice to get a good turnout for this since he is travelling to Aberdeen to give the talk. Unfortunately I'm away this week and won't be able to make it, but I am hoping to join online.
Robert

Happy Tuseday!
If you've not heard of us, 57North get up to a range of activities on
Tuesday nights in our shared workspace, including (but not limited to)
social contact, programming, manufacturing weird things, consuming sugary
treats and the odd can of alcoholic beverage.
Someone is normally around from about 1930.
We're located at:
Suite H Kettock Lodge
Innovation Park
Campus Two
Bridge of Don
Aberdeen
AB22 8GU
Instructions for getting in are here:
https://www.57north.org.uk/open-evenings .Hit the buzzer (Suite H) and
someone shall come and rescue you from downstairs after a brief wait.
There's plenty of parking, but if you don't have transport, then get in
touch either here or IRC and someone may be able to help you out! The
number 1 bus comes nearby too.
If you're new, I'd suggest you bring a laptop, and perhaps a project you
want to work on. If you're not new, shoot a reply to the list and tell us
what you'll be up to, and maybe consider bringing a friend. Please mention
a time if you'll be in before me!
We like our space being accessible for all. When visiting, please ensure
you tidy up after yourself, clean any dishes, cups, cutlery and store them
away. There are vacuum cleaners too, for cleaning the floor. If you have
any questions, please ask one of the regular visitors or members for advise.
I think I'll make it in and if I do it will be from about 8pm.
What are you up to?
I'll be in the space from about 8 doing something to my big box of
computers.

Hey folks,
No sooner than 30 days from now we are planning to junk the laser cutter and the large plotter.
We either need a solid plan to get these things to work or if we don’t get one, then after 30 days someone will breakdown/waste these items on a best effort basis.
