Bletchley Park was the central site for British codebreakers during World War II. It housed the Government Code and Cypher School (GC&CS), which regularly penetrated the secret communications of the Axis Powers – most importantly the German Enigma and Lorenz ciphers. The official historian of World War II British Intelligence has written that the "Ultra" intelligence produced at Bletchley shortened the war by two to four years, and that without it the outcome of the war would have been uncertain.
Located in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, England UK, Bletchley Park is open to the public, and receives hundreds of thousands of visitors annually.
A set of stencils containing QR messages which, covertly marked in urban spaces, may be used to warn people about danger or clue them into good situations.
These stencils can be understood as situated infoviz for urban spaces — providing directions, information, and warnings to digital nomads and other indigenterati. We present these as modern equivalents of the chalk-based "hobo signs" developed by 19th century vagabonds and migratory workers to cope with the difficulty of nomadic life. Indeed, our set of QR stencils port a number of classic hobo annotations to the QR format ("turn right here", "dangerous dog", "food for work") as well as some new ones, with a nod to warchalking, that are specific to contemporary conditions ("insecure wifi", "hidden cameras", "vegans beware").

Protesting against the use of drones and the use of torture, these are members of Code Pink, photographed on January 12, 2013, at a demonstration outside one of the entrances to the headquarters of the CIA, in McLean, Virginia. On the left is Lachelle Roddy, and on the right is Nancy Mancias, the coordinator for Code Pink's War Criminals and Ground the Drones campaigns. The event also involved Episcopal Peace Fellowship DC, Northern Virginians for Peace & Justice, Pax Christi and World Can’t Wait, and activists from the group Witness Against Torture, protesting about the ongoing existence of Guantánamo, the day after the 11th anniversary of the prison's opening.

for 7DoS: the barcodes in supermarkets aren't just used to keep control of stock and prices anymore, I use them to buy my shopping ... so sneaking a photo is pretty easy, as I have it in my hand zapping barcodes along the way.
It's a shame my supermarket hasn't quite mastered the technology regarding stock control, as the empty shelf was were the eggs I wanted, should have been :(

Meet Johno, not the sort of guy you introduce to your daughter or to your wife for that matter.
The 'Bloke Code' focuses on a group of friends, 5 guys aged 29 to 34, all with varying lives, some married or settled, and some not so settled. We meet the guys in a bar, Johno is recanting another of his escapades, the one where her husband comes home early.#theblokecode
Coming soon to a festival near you.

A combination of very sore feet (ow, blisters) and low creativity means I'm not going to complete this year's Cardiff Photomarathon. This makes me very sad. I wish I could recapture the enthusiasm I had in the previous Photomarathons — the enthusiasm that inspired me to create Thing a Week. Maybe one day I'll get my groove back. Fingers crossed.
This picture was the second topic — 'Poetry' — and the only picture I took that I was happy with. I'm uploading it here because it seems like the kind of picture that people might like to use to illustrate a blog post. Sometimes these bloggers give me credit too, which is very kind. But that's another story.
(P.S. I really don't like the new Flickr!)
On saturday 24th june we woke up, had breakfast and got ourselves ready. Then we marched to our target of the day: the OBA coal terminal of the Amsterdam harbour.
Vodafone has announced plans to provide coding training to 1,000 teenage girls across 26 countries in what is the world’s furthest-reaching in-person global coding programme of its kind. The commitment was announced in advance of @WomenScienceDay. Vodafone is partnering with @CodeFirstGirls to address widening gender gap in STEM.
For many years, women and girls have played an important role in science and technology. Without the work of technology pioneers like Hedy Lamarr and Barbara Liskov, we would not have Wi-Fi and email as we know it. But despite this, women and girls are still grossly under-represented in science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) education and careers. Only 35% of girls enter further education in STEM subjects, and many have little encouragement to equip themselves with the skills to thrive in these industries.
Vodafone wants to help change this. In a partnership with social enterprise Code First: Girls, Vodafone’s #CodeLikeAGirl programme will provide five-day, coding workshops for girls, ages 14-18, across its geographical footprint in Europe, India, the Middle East, South Africa and Australasia. In 2017, 500 girls across Vodafone’s 26 markets were taught to code as part of the Vodafone and Code First: Girls partnership. This year, 1,000 teenage girls will benefit from the programme.
