    So I'm pretty all in on this Python thing: I am currently developing & teaching a new class on an Introduction to Python, focused on students in the Cognitive Sciences. It's also entirely open source! Everything is up on the course website:

    Okay, I take back the shade about the BBC reporting, because '??' was absolutely the right way to report on this. I don't take back that this is a ridiculous way to hold a 'vote'. For a country that is all in on the "democracy" branding, this thing is a total mess.

    Like 5 articles later I do sorta understand the mechanics, but like, why is it like this!? The history seems to be something about an old photocopier (??), but that seems like an excuse for "well we basically just hate shift workers & disabled people & people with kids & ...."

    Tonight I'm going to try and follow along with the ludicrously complex Iowa caucus (or give up & do something simpler, like neuroscience). It's refreshing & worrying that even the BBC coverage seems to boil down to a helplessly vague "look, we don't really get it either, so ??"

    Obviously I'm biased, but I think this is for real a super cool 'dedicated software job' within science, working on tools that are both really cool and fun to work with and also gaining pretty good adoption and having an impact in the field.

    Come and replace me as the VoytekLab's current 'main-programmer-person'! You can do all the things on my "what I would do if I was a real developer" list! Or, even better - do all the things I don't even know to want to do, because I've just been making it up all along! :)

    Also, I work in neuroscience, but what that actually means for me is less "discovering how brains work" and more "how does this code work!? Should it work like that!? Hmmm..." - so get ready for when I revert to tweeting about that stuff again soon.

    I gained some followers from the "I'm gay!" & "an electric bus!" tweets. So, to re-introduce myself... well, I mean that sorta covers the basics - I just want people to be able to freely live whatever queer lives they want in a world with clean energy and good public transport.

    Video from the STM's Instagram page. Also, what the heck STM y'alls got a surprisingly snazzy Insta page. Maybe I'm just like really missing real public transport but 'those are some killer metro photos' is not how I thought I'd start the day. Link:

    The Montreal transport system is currently posting videos showing off their new FULLY ELECTRIC BUS drifting around the winter test track! This is the future I'm hoping for.

    I was tempted to joke about how for all the things I've worked hard on and posted here, liking guys - which took really no effort at all - got a lot more attention! Actually, I prefer to say I'm really glad that people respond so well to simply being open. Thanks y'all 😃🏳️‍🌈💙

    Wow, wow, wow. Not really sure what to say other than a tremendous thanks to everyone for their support and kind words. It means a lot!

    Thank you so much for everyone's kind words! I'll get back to them when I can. For the moment, I took a step back, and wrote a little bit more about this, for anyone who is interested:

    Sometimes, when things happen, I just write. This one is about movies. I mean, sort of. It's also about that whole coming out thing. Or, well, it's a bit about both. So, I have something to tell you...:

    I have thought a hundred times of how to say this, but I'll go with the simple version: so, I'm queer 🏳️‍🌈. I think not being more open about this has been a contributor (though by no means the only part) to some very-not-great mental health - so, let's try the open version now.

    If you're looking for a feel good story check out my latest for . The Alsalamats represent a lot of families in this country - including mine. Came here with nothing, but hope. Hope to build a future for them and their children.

    Somehow both the QS and THE university rankings are 'in partnership' with Elsevier. Does anyone know how this works or what this means? Also, Elsevier is into some pretty bad stuff

    Like, if your code isn't about 25% assert statements how do you even know what is happening.

    After a few hours debugging and re-running an analysis because *a list of files didn't sort as expected* I'm reminded that computers are the absolute worst and I don't know how anyone works with any amount of code without using extensive code tests and ongoing code checks.

    If I were to make a 'machine learning start-up', our service would be to sit with your problem, and then like 90% of the time just say "this isn’t a machine learning problem, please hire a social scientist". For the other 10%, we'd let you use our linear regression Python script.

    I spend quite a lot of time writing things down. In the name of re-opening my blog, I have coerced some recent written sketches into a new blog post. It is, funnily enough, on the topic of writing (sort of). New Blog Post: On Writing
