PythonShow: Exploring the DNA 🧬 and Home Automation 🤖

The Python Show – live talks, interviews, and a lovely community chat 🎥
Agenda:

About the talk: How is it possible to apply the power of computing in modern biology? Right now, billions of cells are replicating your genome. This extremely complex process is essential to life, but how much do we even know about it? Using the bacteria E. coli as a model organism, I will demonstrate how we can find out the starting point of the DNA replication process. Perhaps surprisingly, randomized algorithms, like rolling dices and flipping coins can be applied to solve these problems.

=> Richard Kellner (Bratislava): Python and Home Automation 🤖

In this talk, Richard will introduce us to home automation and what we can do to automate (almost) anything.

He'll show the most popular boards (where you can run Python) and show some of the incredible things that can be done.

Once we have the appliance ready it would (most likely) produce data. We will explore the possibilities of how to collect it and automate actions. This talk is tailored to people who are interested in creating real-world appliances.

• As always, Boosted Boris will add extra spice with his drums 🥁

At the end of the show, everyone joins a public videochat where we ask questions and talk about everything.
