Where do I even begin? It's been a long time since I've last updated here. I really like mastodon. It's aesthetically pleasing and I love how I feel like there is nobody watching me here lol.
Feels good to be honest. I'll try harder to be regular in this secret corner of the internet 8D

A journalist is asking me how the Indian community of Mastodon is doing after its late-2019 rise to prominence. Unfortunately unless someone here has any numbers I'm going to have to say that I don't know, since Mastodon does not track user locations...

The world is a fucking crazy place

We should all do our personal part, turn off electric stuff when we don’t use it. Don’t shower too long and often. Eat less or no meat. Public transportation, electric cars etc, etc..

But other then that, what could we start/do? Start a hashtag #SaveThePlanet or create our own collective non-profit and DO something, start protest, donate money, what is a better and more direct idea/solution to this (‘boring’) but sooo important issue that we have going for us and our children.

Firefox is the democratic party of browsers.

@alex I think John Maddog has made the same complain but I'm not sure.
(he a famous hacker and open source advocate)

@alex On the programming language matter, I can suggest that you study algorithms and data structures instead.Once you know that, you will see that all programming languages are the same tool from different brands.
(Ofc, some break easily and others have a life time warranty)

I assume most people here have more projects and things they want to learn than they have free time.
What guidelines do you use pick what to do and what not to do?

#introduction

I'm a new postdoc at the University of Washington eScience Institute. My PhD is in physics but I'm transitioning to developing statistical learning techniques/software for neuroimaging data. More info at https://autofq.org/.

I'm a fan of open science and reproducibility. I enjoy climbing, hiking, and growing up all over again with my daughter.

I'm looking to engage with people with similar research interests and who can help me further develop myself as a data scientist.
