26.9.2024 10:14Comment on Welsh Government’s approach to ‘digital’ by Technology and Cymraeg – David ClubbTechnology and Cymraeg In June 2024 Welsh Government launched a ‘call for information‘ on what is needed to make technology more friendly to Cymraeg. I produced a response to highlight the power of open source in enabling low-cost, high quality and ‘translation-friendly’ services. I post the response in full below. Hashtags: #Cymraeg #LlywodraethCymru #WelshGovernment #OpenSource […]

I first met George when I was a first year undergraduate student at Lancaster University. I attended supervisions with him, in the company of my fellow student Graeme Plenderleith […]

26.4.2024 11:00Comment on Linux mobile; safer phones for children? by Dyfrig WilliamsLinux mobile; safer phones for children? I have two children in primary school. They live in a world where mobile phones, and specifically smartphones, are ubiquitous. And …. that’s not necessarily a bad thing. When used ‘smartly’, mobile phones are valuable sources of information, entertainment, organisation and communication. However there are downsides, as I describe […]
25.4.2024 15:18Linux mobile; safer phones for children?In praise of Mike Clubb – and volunteers everywhere My dad, Mike Clubb, spent his whole working life as a history teacher. Bridgend for the most part, but also Cwmbrân and Zambia. It’s hard for a son to objectively assess his father’s quality as a teacher; but from conversations I’ve had with ex-pupils, he seems […]

(Spoiler – yes – and with a lot of strategic thought and hard work could be far nicer than our towns and cities of today.

14.8.2023 15:38Preparing for 50 degrees in WalesChanging Wales’ diet There was an interesting thread on LinkedIn last week, discussing things like Wales’ relience on imported fruit and vegetables. Predominantly Brexit-related issues, but it did spark a few comments about what Wales could and should be producing. And it led me to consider whether public procurement in Wales should only incorporate vegetarian […]

I was struck by the following statement about how to consider ‘futures’: Start with where you want to be, not where you’re coming from. The basis of this post is the sort of skills and confidence that I […]

I’m a big fan of skilling-up in Wales, and a big fan of digital media. So, naturally, I offered my services for extolling the benefits of open […]
