Excited about the Raspberry Pi?? I am! I'm hoping this hardware will help usher in a new generation of hackers (used in the purest sense of the term) and give even the most disadvantaged a chance to become beguiled by technology!

The aim of this club is to have semi regular meetups in a relaxed setting where we can show off our latest hacks or help each other learn. Wit …

Welcome to the London Big-O Meetup! This is London's first meetup focusing on data structures and algorithms, regardless of programming language. I started this meetup for a few reasons. There's a general lack of similar events for people interested in the theory or maths behind the tools we use every day—dictionaries, sets, lists and regular expressions are things we all take for granted, but when you reach a large enough scale, the differences between implementations begin to show. It's import …
