A picture is worth a thousand words. That's how the saying goes, right? #csvconfv9 #csvconf @sarapetti.bsky.social keynote talk!

@sarapetti.bsky.social is taking us along the ODE journey which was anything BUT a linear path. I love the emphasis on the failures, which are an essential part of any journey, but are mostly kept hidden away. #csvconf #csvconfv9

@sarapetti.bsky.social is being so genuine: "a lot of things did not make sense in the initial phase of ODE, and the feedback from users and communities was absolutely crucial."
For example, people were scared of the metadata section (which is not hard to believe eheh) #csvconf #csvconfv9

"The app logic can help with data literacy" - I really like this, because it shows once again that a technical solution without a framework around it that makes sense and it's capable of answering questions and meeting users needs - is worth ZERO. @sarapetti.bsky.social at #csvconf #csvconfv9

"Don't make assumptions, listen, take a step back, be aware of language barriers, be aware of the words you choose"

Seems to me @sarapetti.bsky.social needs to go teach a thing or two around universities and gov bodies. There, I said it, sorry not sorry.

I can't wait to meet you all! 💚 And the conference programme is indeed looking amazing.
