RE: A first steemSTEM meetup… inside the LHC at CERN

[erh.germany]

What a fantastic idea!

That is the most unusual place for a meeting I so far have heard about. For some reason it reminds me on my good old days in the media branch! We went to all kinds of cool places.

But I won't make it. Hope that the ones who can come, will bring good vibes with them!

There are cool particle physics experiments in Hamburg too, but I am less connected to them. Maybe for a next time? :D

I very much hope for a next time! Because I really would like to get in touch with you and all the others I am connected with on SteemSTEM in real life.

For sure you know Tim Berners-Lee. To hold this meeting in CERN is just perfect because of it's background ;-)

"I just had to take the hypertext idea and connect it to the Transmission Control Protocol and domain name system ideas and—ta-da!—the World Wide Web ... Creating the web was really an act of desperation, because the situation without it was very difficult when I was working at CERN later. Most of the technology involved in the web, like the hypertext, like the internet, multifont text objects, had all been designed already. I just had to put them together. It was a step of generalising, going to a higher level of abstraction, thinking about all the documentation systems out there as being possibly part of a larger imaginary documentation system."

I know the name, but I have never met the guy :)
