    Great event, big thanks to Theo&al for organizing! Looking forward to the next one.

    I can offer a "hacker" talk on machine learning and (automated) text analysis = how to automatically detect people, places, themes, categories...

    Basically a fly through the magic behind search, personalized content recommendations & contextual advertising.

    Hi Theo,
    Many thanks to you for putting this together!
    I am still bummed that I had to leave earlier and missed the other talks. But hope to catch up sometime soon

    Dear Hacks & Hackers, I would like to have a short talk about "Web & APIs" – What is a Web API, what are APIs used for, what is the current situations & trends and why you might want to care about APIs. If you will, I can also share some details on the API development process.

    Let me know should there be an API-related topic you would like to hear about. Looking forward to it!

      Unfortunately I have to withdraw my talk from tonight's meet up due to sore throat and fever.

    In my email yesterday, I neglected to mention Anton Chiriaev, who will be showing us some of the interactive infographics and embedded videos RFE/RL has made to cover the crisis in Ukraine. Sorry, Anton! See you tomorrow!

    "Můj příspěvek" je prý blbý jméno pro příspěvek na HH. Takže jinak: Hitparáda nejhorších viualizací jako inspirace dobrého datavizu

    Když předem mnou někdo pronese spojení „datová žurnalistika“, přestanu poslouchat. Debaty o datové žurnalistice mi přijdou buď příliš odborné („tak jsme si napsali takovej skriptík na skrejpování té bázičky“) nebo příliš povrchní a nudné („je potřeba podpořit datovou žurnalistiku, jelikož je nezbytná pro udržitelnost médií). Vybrala jsem si proto jen jednu a konkrétní část datové žurnalistiky – vizualizace. Hitparádou nejmíň povedených vizualizací bych ráda otevřela debatu o tom, jaké jsou možnosti vizualizace, jak se mění gramotnost čtenářů ve vnímání vizualizací a jaké jsou nejčastější omyly, které si novináři vyfňukávají na datalidech a nejčastější záseky, které si datalidi vyvztekávají na novinářích.

    (falls over) This response is great! Thanks so much to everyone for your interest! Special thanks to Adam, Francesco, Filip and everyone else who is bringing ideas to Thursdays meeting. If you have something you want to share Thursday night, please add it to this conversation here. Thanks!

      Hi all! I could talk about data visualisation and my beloved d3, i think that it would be interesting for data journalists
