It’s Turing Fest this week in Edinburgh, so expect visitors from near and far. I’m organising GlasgowJS on Tuesday, so hope to see some of you there. It’s our first evening at the BJSS office, so thanks to their team for hosting and sponsoring our event! Aberdeen has their Data meetup on Tuesday, Dundee sees the Abertay Digital Graduate show, and Glasgow has Python open mic and Open Source cheese and wine night.

Looking further ahead, at the end of the month it’s the Tectonic Night Summit at Glasgow Tech Week. I’ll be there with several folks from the community. Remember to pick up a ticket if you are interested in coming along!

This week in content from across the Scottish tech community:
