Berlin is known for wasting money in projects that standout by their incompetence, but the new #BER airport is something of an outlier. Avoid flying in or out of Berlin. Avoid moving here if you need to fly anywhere. Check the ratings out there from travelers. 2/2

#BER airport is the worst possible thing you can imagine. 2 and a half hours to receive a luggage. Would be stuck inside the airplane for 2+ hours if not for the crew and bus conductors. Taxpayer money is being burned in this worthless public enterprise. 1/2

I will be available for people interested in the @AirbusSpace challenges 5 and 6 of the #ActInSpace2022 #hackathon. Although UP42 is not part of the official sponsor list I can jump start you in using it for the challenges.

If you are working on image processing and are looking for new challenges. Look at what #remotesensing brings. If you work in remote sensing, then looking at the image processing issues is a must IMHO. Just scratching the surface (t)here.

Satellite images are hard to deal with from an image processing standpoint. In this article I scratch the surface of the subject. https://t.co/HKQbsv8kU3 Makes use of the great @orfeotoolbox from @CNES

Blog post https://t.co/XIgRbIB8Ln +jupyter notebook https://t.co/j6vsKrf1H1 on selecting stereo and tri-stereo images from the Airbus archive on @UP42_ . #python functional programming fans are bound to like it: map + filter + iterators FTW 😸

A new article on using @UP42_ webhooks. This time using #OpenResty, #nginx and #lualang. It relies on @ngrokHQ and @pipedream to handle the "forwarding" of the requests to a local machine.

One thing is clear. I won't be ordering anything from a company using #Dachser as their #logistics operator. It adds an all new meaning to the word incompetence. @dachser_news

I have only seen a couple of instances of #logistics companies that are as incompetent as Dachser Iberia. Parcel has been sitting in the warehouse for a week. Wrong address in their system. Twice asked for an update, while providing the right address. No changes. @dachser_news

We can see that @Apple is a company that really cares about resource depletion and the planet when it provides more than 10GB bloatware (xcode) just to have a command line that works minimally. It goes hand in hand with overpriced HW built by slave workers in Asia. #greenwashing

Is beyond me how people think macOS is a somewhat of a decent developer environment. Besides de 90s look & feel of the UI (NeXTStep), xcode takes #bloatware to new heights. It fits at least 5 full Debian desktop installs inside.

The slides for my #juliacon2022 poster session "Remote Sensing in Julia: an absolute beginners perspective" are here: https://t.co/AACviLU2uX. I suppose videos from yesterday's evening sessions should be made available soon. Right? @JuliaConOrg Thank you.

The great attention devoted by @nestrangeiro_pt to the portuguese abroad. Trying to get an email or a phone call to be answered by the Portuguese consulate in Berlin is task that not even Hercules could muster. Service has degraded severely with online booking of appointments.

Start working now on your fluffy & impressive CV for the fall hiring season. What have you done today? 😹

Remote sensing can have a huge impact in the way cities evolve. With all the developments around new urbanism and liveable cities it can bring the quantitative element to bear on decisions. Beyond politics & personal opinions. Also business many opportunities. #CopernicusMasters

ICYMI #webhooks FTW 😸

Following up on the previous tweet on the @UP42 @CopernicusEMC challenge here are the slides from my extremely short presentation on urbanism. https://t.co/VWQ78t1tZs #CopernicusMasters

Just presented a webinar on th @UP42_ @CopernicusEMC Sustainable urban development with @jorfgal and @DiegoAlarcnDaz2. The notebook with the Saint-Malo traffic analysis is here: https://t.co/OIMA6XgN64 #CopernicusMasters #urbanplanning #Sustainability

Hypocrisy turned up to 11!

My first article on using webhooks with @UP42_ is published: https://t.co/ly1AFubhdP It uses @pipedream w/ custom #python code. It shows how you can leverage webhooks w/ few lines of code and no need to run a webserver. UP42 implemented webhooks using the upcoming IETF standards.
