NoBugs2026

Since I no longer have a bed tonight, I decided to write something to summarize the past couple of days.

Took a tour to DESY and can always spot a blue box somewhere. =)

It was my first time at NoBugs and it’s not like any other conferences that I attended. Started with workshops and then move to all day long intense talks, I feel like a turkey being prepared for Thanksgiving 👀

Through the intense experience I met some amazing people, made some friends, getting to know my colleagues better and knowing more about what other facilities are doing. Of course, I also introduced our group so other people know what we are doing.

So what have I learned today? I learned not to do it again (i.e. hoping the trains passing through Germany to be reliable).
