Trek View | Software Engineer | REMOTE | Part-time | https://www.trekview.org
Trek View is a non-profit organisation helping local communities map their world's.
We collect over 10TB of imagery every month (and growing quickly).
Due to growth I'm now looking for someone to help me build scalable open-source tools for our trekkers to easily process, stitch and upload their 3D imagery.
This role is paid but part-time (12 hours / week). Could be a nice evening project for someone. I'm in London and welcome worldwide applications.

Though I believe this is just for keynotes.
You can get a free ticket from most vendors, search "RSAC free pass", to ensure you can access all the recordings when they are posted post-conference.

Is there a HN Goodreads collection, or similar? Lots of lists like this (inc. my own: https://www.productgems.io/library/) but would love to see something centralised when in search of a new book to read (that's not a generic top 10).
