About this episode
My guest is John Stevenson from the British Geological Survey (BGS) and there is a lot to cover in this episode: John's switch from science to engineering; how to move from proprietary to open source software - and the hot stuff: volcanos. And what John did in volcanology. Here are a few links:https://www.bgs.ac.uk/people/stevenson-john/ John's profile at the BGS https://volcanologistsoutsideacademia.wordpress.com/2018/08/29/spotlight-john-a-stevenson-ph-d/https://all-geo.org/volcan01010/every-post-ever/  John's blog postshttps://fosstodon.org/@volcan01010 John's profile on Mastodonhttps://github.com/volcan01010/ GitHub for Johnhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elisabeth_Kübler-Ross a reference for the 5 stages of griefVolcanoshttps://icelandicvolcanos.is Iceland has a lot of volcanoshttps://rischi.protezionecivile.gov.it/en/volcanic/volcanoes-italy/ Volcanos in Italyhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010_eruptions_of_Eyjafjallajökull the big eruption from 2010http://www.pompeii.org.uk/s.php/tour-the-two-letters-written-by-pliny-the-elder-about-the-eruption-of-vesuvius-in-79-a-d-history-of-pompeii-en-238-s.htm the letters by Pliny the Younger describing the eruption of Vesuvius in 79ADTools mentionedhttps://www.sonatype.com https://qgis.orghttps://www.geopackage.orghttps://merginmaps.comhttps://www.redhat.com/enhttps://www.debian.orghttps://www.centos.orghttps://thehackernews.com/2024/04/malicious-code-in-xz-utils-for-linux.html Linux  security vulnerability found in 2024Get in touchThank you for listening!
