Bulletin 2026 Week 14
Monday March 30th, 2026
GlasgowPHP
I’ve scheduled this bulletin to go out on Monday morning, as I’m off for a few days. So if you’ve sent me something in the last day or two and it hasn’t made it in - sorry!
It looks like it’ll be a fun week of events across Scotland, including Dundee Data Meetup, High Signal, Tech Meetup Glasgow, UX North East in Aberdeen, and two chances to hang out with Rust devs in Edinburgh.
