#Introduction post to connect with some people. Work edition.
I'm a #physicist. I work at the BESSYII #synchrotron playing with #magnets in the #undulator group. I like to code in #python. I sometimes have to interact with #fortran and #perl. I'm interested in #sustainablesoftware , but I struggle to keep to best practice 😜
@Ed_Rial sustainable software is the last thing I would ever think I’ll see. Is that a thing ?
@Tornflakes yup! https://www.software.ac.uk/
Basically, hard editing your main code and saving it as 'version2_december_bugfix_with_feature_ER' is not really considered best practice these days. Sustainable software is about minimising technical debt in software through the use of version control, continuous integration and other buzzwords 😁
