Hacks/Hackers #11

Join us for this month's Hacks/Hackers.

Speakers for this month include:

Some of the OpenNews Fellows (http://www.mozillaopennews.org/fellowships/) talking about their adventures as techies let loose in the newsroom. 

• "Learning to code is easy; learning tocode is hard" Noah Veltman - BBC

• "ReGENESIS, German statistics for mortals and machines" Friedrich Lindenberg - Spiegel

• "Big Data" Stijn Debrouwere - the Guardian

Thomas Jöchler and Julian Stahnke from ZEIT ONLINE - talking about the story behind their Tour de France piece.

Aside: Seeing as we have this year's OpenNews fellows speaking - it seems appropriate to mention that the 2014 Open News Fellowships are now accepting applications, but only until 17th August. Hurry! (http://mozillaopennews.org/fellowships/apply.html)

    Very inspiring. Loved Stijn Debrouwere's talk abou metrics - and he showed perfectly well that you can get people's attention without any PPT ;-)

We just grab a coffee and speak French. Some people have been coming every week for months... it creates a kind of warmth to the group.
