Once again, I had the pleasure of participating in the annual programming event, Advent of Code. It’s a tradition I look forward to every December.

Capitole du Libre is an incredible annual event bringing together open-source and free software enthusiasts. As a long-time attendee, I’ve had the privilege of immersing myself in a community driven by a shared passion for open technologies. Over the years, I’ve attended inspiring talks, exchanged ideas with like-minded individuals, and engaged in deep discussions with representatives from organizations like Wikipedia, Framasoft, and Firefox.

This year, I decided to take my involvement to the next level. With the support and partnership of my friend Mathieu, we stepped up to present two talks. These presentations are close to my heart and reflect our shared dedication to open-source principles and tools. Let me introduce the two topics:

Histoire de Rue presents a cartographic view of the history of Paris, in collaboration with the YouTuber/Historian Sur le champ.

It is an innovative web platform that enables users to explore streets imported from a CSV file.
This open-source project aims to provide an accessible and interactive way to visualize urban data.

I joined the 2023 Hacktoberfest event, and managed to end up with 3 main contributions:

• A bug fix on the Jenkins Slack-plugin
• A small enhancement on the spring-boot initializr project
• A translation fix for the “text-finder” Jenkins plugin

It has been some time since I last took part in the Hacktoberfest open-source events.
This year, I came in with a handful of goals and minimal time to spare, and here’s how it all played out:

Coding event Advent of code 2021, a new year, a new challenge… let’s go

Advent of code (AoC) is a coding event taking place every year on december. From the 1st of December to the 25th, a new coding puzzle is released daily.

I am joining the event for the third time, and will share my adventure through the coding puzzles. Github repo

A new kata is released: the magic square!

The victory of DeepBlue against Garry Kasparov in 1996 left a lasting impression.

The game of Go then became the new battleground: its 19x19 board results in a staggering number of possible combinations, estimated at 10¹⁷⁰!

It took nearly 20 years after DeepBlue’s triumph to witness its successor, AlphaGo, defeat Lee Sedol, the world’s best Go player.

Advent of code 2020 starts today!

I am joining the event for the second time, and will write a bit about the coding journey…

Switching between computers and browsers made my history bookmarks quite messy.

Reference Collector is designed to keep track of the articles I read, and share those easily.

This blog will present all past, current and future projects.
