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.
The Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility hosted Women in Computing's "Introduce Your Daughter to Code" for the second time on June 16, giving daughters of staff members at ORNL a chance to engage in fun programming activities and code on the Cray XK7 Titan supercomputer. This year, 25 girls ages 10 to 18 participated in the labwide event.
OLCF User Support Specialist Suzanne Parete-Koon kicked off the event with an introduction to parallel computing and Titan before ORNL intern Dasha Herrmannova and ORNL postdoctoral research associate Anne Berres walked the girls through the basics of coding in Python.
Katie Schuman, a Liane Russell Distinguished Early Career Fellow, helped the girls use a program called fractalName to generate colored fractals—repeating patterns that form shapes—based on their names and ages. The fractals were displayed on the visualization wall in the Exploratory Visualization Environment for Research in Science and Technology, or EVEREST. The girls also used Schuman's Birthday Pi code to find their birthdays in the first 100,000 digits of the number pi.
"It was really exciting to see the girls' enthusiasm and curiosity when they were coding," Katie says. "Seeing them already thinking creatively about the code is the most rewarding thing to me."
After they coded on the leadership-class machine, the girls explored the interactive Tiny Titan, which features eight Raspberry Pi processors and provides a visual simulation of a liquid in space. Tiny Titan demonstrates how additional nodes in a compute system can increase the speed of a simulation.
Katie says the feedback WiC continues to receive about the event will inform future coding activities. "Some of the parents have already said the girls wanted to download everything and keep playing with the code when they got home," she says. "There is already a desire for the next phase. We will definitely continue running the same curriculum and possibly expand it in the future."
The following staff members contributed to "Introduce Your Daughter to Code:" Berres, Harken, Herrmannova, Parete-Koon, Schuman, Megan Bradley, Kate Carter, Amy Coen, Katherine Engstrom, Megan Fielden, Shang Gao and Ashley Nguyen.

The Japanese are really into their QR codes, but instead of leaving them boring black and white, they love to incorporate them as design elements.
Not a good photo but that dress code is so good I had to upload it.. and guess if I was nervous before entering.. and the reason was not Burberry!

"The world was on fire and no one could save me but you.
It's strange what desire will make foolish people do.
I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you.
And I never dreamed that I knew somebody like you."

Statue at Wesly Bolin Memorial Park to honor and remember Navajo Code Talkers from WWII.
"Known as Navajo Code Talkers, they were young Navajo men who transmitted secret communications on the battlefields of WWII. At a time when America's best cryptographers were falling short, these modest sheepherders and farmers were able to fashion the most ingenious and successful code in military history. They drew upon their proud warrior tradition to brave the dense jungles of Guadalcanal and the exposed beachheads of Iwo Jima. Serving with distinction in every major engagement of the Pacific theater from 1942-1945, their unbreakable code played a pivotal role in saving countless lives and hastening the war's end."

Airshow Wings of Freedom - Ede NL - 2019
In 2019 it is 75 years since Operation Overlord, the code name of the Western allies, started on 6 June 1944 to liberate Western Europe. It would ultimately be quite a fight and Operation Market Garden would go into the history books as the grandest airborne ever. To support the advance well, temporary airports were built at various locations, that proved to be very effective and made a major contribution to the liberation. This field in Ede, a central city in the Netherlands, was one of them. Through various activities, the awareness of freedom is brought to the attention and shown to the Dutch public through 75 years of remembering, commemorating and celebrating together. On this day there is again a real airport with a runway and a control tower. More than 30,000 visitors attended this day.
The aviation event and the WWII airport are incomplete without the activities on the ground. Because we want to match the 'Forty Years' image as well as possible, a historically correct camp is being built. Around 250 re-enactors and historically dressed people depict the daily life of the Second World War. At the camp you can experience what life at an Allied airport looked like. You will encounter pilots, bomber crews and ground personnel from both the Royal Air Force, the US Army Air Force but also the counterpart, the German Luftwaffe. In addition, the various Allied army units are well represented, such as the Airborne troops, both American and British and Canadian. The entertaining staff such as fitters, chefs, office staff and nursing staff are also abundantly present. All of these people live and live throughout the event at the camp and therefore take along a suitable collection of vehicles, weapons and utensils alongside tents.

Had this lovely t-shirt printed for a friend and colleague.
As I have a few more of these, they are up for grabs for all designers, developers or other people who sometimes have the urge to tell their (fellow) coders to just get on with it ;)
I have a couple of M, L and XL left.
Just drop me a line if you are interested in buying one.
