Okay. I guess I'm going to follow the current trend and make a quite overdue #Introduction. Hi, I'm Zeolith! I'm an #EarthSciences and #GIS enthousiast, working in #DataEngineering in the #French speaking part of Europe. I'm also #ActuallyAutistic, #ADHD and of course #AuDHD. I love everything #Geology, #Geoscience, #Railways and complex systems. Probably going to boost #ThinSectionThursday because honestly those are so beautiful.

I guess that's it for now... Any questions?
